Today I’m trying a new sketch challenge called Try a Sketch on Tuesday. The sketch they have runs for a two-week period. It’s a great sketch and I couldn’t wait to give it a try! I’m also entering the card in the Try a Sketch on Tuesday sister challenge, Double Trouble!
Here is my card using a few sneak peeks from the New Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog for 2025-2026 that goes live on May 6, 2025!
I used the new Pretty Florals stamp and die bundle and the Florals in Bloom Designer Series Paper. This is all part of the beautiful new Florals in Bloom Suite of products.
The suite includes DSP, two stamp and die sets, and the 2025-26 In Color Flat Pearl Embellishment assortment. You get a lot of goodies in this suite!
For my card, I used the new In Color called Timid Tiger. I cut a piece of the Timid Tiger card stock to serve as a mat behind my Florals in Bloom DSP. I used the Textured Notes Dies to cut the DSP and the Sentiment layer in Basic White card stock.
My sentiment is stamped in the new Timid Tiger ink and it comes from the Simply Said stamp set.
My florals are from the Pretty Florals stamp and die bundle. This bundle in one of the 2 stamp and die bundles in the suite.
I used my Stampin’ Write Markers to color in the blooms, which I stamped in Cherry Cobbler. I used some Granny Apple Green and Garden Green on a dauber to ink up and stamp the stems before die cutting them.
You can see some of the new embellishements in the Secret Sea color on the finished card.
Isn’t a great sketch? You can use some of your pretty papers, a favorite sentiment and some florals.
Considering how many of all of those things I have in my stash, I plan to use this sketch for more cards soon!

Your floral really pops against the background patterned papers, a happy hello card.
