Forever Fern with Forever Gold for the Win


I am having such a blast playing with the new products from the 2020/21 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue!! There are so many pretty new suites to choose from. One of the prettiest is the Forever Greenery Suite on pgs 108 - 110 in the catalogue. Using a variety of all the greens in our Stampin' Up! colours, Forever Greenery creates rich canvases of foliage of all shapes and sizes on the Designer Series Paper and uses distINKtive technology to allow us to stamp realistic foliage of many kinds with the Forever Fern stamp set, coordinated with the Forever Flourishing Dies. And when you add in the richness of the Forever Gold Laser Cut Specialty Paper elements and the gold trim from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo pack you are destined to have a winner!



  • I started with a card base of **Just Jade, one of the new 2020-2022 In Colours, layered with a piece of the **Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper.
  • I added a layer of Soft Sea Foam backed with Mint Macaron just so that the design elements wouldn't get lost in the detail of the DSP behind it.
  • I chose one of the gold labels from the **Forever Gold Laser-cut Specialty papers and some extra gold foliage from it as well. I turned the extra foliage over to the white side before it was added to the back of the gold piece.
  • On Whisper White cardstock, I stamped  some of the foliage using images from the **Forever Fern stamp set with Pretty Peacock, Garden Green, Pear Pizzazz and Mint Macaron, then die cut them with the **Forever Flourishing Dies. These were also added to the back of the label, with a couple also added to the sentiment rectangle, die cut with the Stitched Rectangle Dies. The sentiment is from the Forever Fern stamp set and is stamped in Pretty Peacock ink. 
  • The sprigs of eucalyptus were die cut from Gray Granite cardstock.
  • Everything is glued down flat using Glue Dots or Liquid Multipurpose Glue except the Gold Label which is added with Stampin' Dimensionals.
  • I made a 6 loop finger bow from the Gold Trim that's part of the **Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack. It was added to the card front using a Glue Dot.

I'm excited, because there are so many things that you can do with this set, so I'm really looking forward to playing with it some more! And if you're waiting to order it, there's only 2 more weeks left. (That is unless you buy the Starter Kit and get it in your kit, becoming a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. I'd be happy to guide you with how to do this if you join my team when you sign up!)
