I am excited to have the opportunity to introduce you to the next addition in the Year of Flowers series, Gladiolus. This particular flower has been requested by many of our customers and I am so pleased to be able to finally provide it to all of you.
These gladiolus blooms were an absolute joy to illustrate. Upon studying several different varieties, I loved how they featured tight clusters of blooms and knew that this would be one of the best yet. Besides the single large set of blooms, this set also features sentiments that are interchangeable between all the sets as well as a "month" stamp that can be combined with the others to create a calendar.
The details.
- Year of Flowers: Gladiolus will be available for purchase on August 15th.
- It will retail for $15.
- Year of Flowers: Gladiolus contains a total of 5 stamps (1 large flower image and 4 sentiments)
- The sentiments are interchangeable with the other stamps in the Year of Flowers series: Violets, Daffodils, Sweet Peas, Lily of the Valley, Roses & Larkspurs.
Today I also want to introduce you to our new impression plate for August, Guide Lines Grid. This double-ides impression plate allows you to create the perfect guide for using the images in the original Guide Lines stamp set. One side of the plate features the grid in a horizontal orientation and the reverse side showcases a diagonal orientation. Images from other sets will also coordinate with this grid as long as they are smaller than 3/4". Not to mention that the grid also looks amazing alone without any stamp embellishing.
The details.
- The Guide Lines Grid Impression Plate will be available for purchase on August 15th.
- It will retail for $16.
- The Guide Lines Grid Impression Plate is a double-sided plate measuring 4.5" x 5.75".
- The grid pattern that this creates will coordinate perfectly with the original Guide Lines stamp set.
Now let's get onto some fun projects, shall we?
My first card is a simple single layer card that lets the coloring take center stage.
I started by stamping the large gladiolus image with Black Noir Palette ink onto Stamper's Select White cardstock.
I then colored the image with Berry Sorbet & Ripe Avocado Copic Trios. I didn't blend the darkest center portion of the flowers too much because I wanted to use it as a guide for glitter application in the next step.
I used a 2-way glue pen to apply adhesive to the center of each flower and sprinkled them with Prisma Glitter.
Since I left the centers so vibrant in the previous step you can still see their detail & definition clearly.
The sentiment "I'm here for you, always" was stamped slightly overlapping the flower with black ink as well. I love how simple this is yet still can play a role as an attention getter.
This next project showcases how you don't have to use the entire gladiolus image to create a beautiful focal point.
I started by cutting a piece of Stamper's Select White cardstock with the new Mat Stack 4 die. I then stamped a portion of the gladiolus image on it using Black Noir ink. I colored the image with Pure Poppy & Ripe Avocado Trios. In real life, red gladiolus are some of my favorites and I love them just as much as a paper version.
I also used the new Guide Lines Grid Impression Plate on this project. You can see here how the impressed grid allows you t line up the images from Guide Lines perfectly every time.
I love how the impression plate makes the finished background almost look like dimensional tile when completed.
I layered loops of Pure Poppy Satin ribbon underneath the focal point to create some drama.
I just adore how vibrant the red is when popped against crisp white and Kraft. The word "gladiolus" from the set was added beside the floral image as a finishing touch.
I am quite certain that this card would look stunning recreated in several different colors, especially Raspberry Fizz!
This card is a more modern take on gladiolus.
I stamped the floral image on Kraft cardstock with Fresh Snow ink and sprinkled it with Filigree White embossing powder and heat to set.
I love how well this image pairs with heat embossing. The technique really captures every detail of the flowers so well.
The sentiment was also heat embossed and underlined with a few lines of random stitching on my sewing machine. I used glue dots to apply a few haphazard Simply Chartreuse buttons on the right hand side.
This project would make a wonderful gift if you were to package 5 or 6 of them together in a variety of colors!
I have one last project for you using this set.
I used our Linen Vellum for my focal point, stamping the gladiolus onto it using Aqua Mist ink.
The Hawaiian Shores background was impressed with the Guide Lines Grid Impression Plate without the use of the Guide Lines stamp set. I really like the simplicity of this. I trimmed a thin strip of Stamper's Select White cardstock and adhered it on either side of the sentiment with a 2-way glue pen. I then stitched over the border using my sewing machine.
The sentiment was stamped with Hawaiian Shores ink.
These elements were just a joy to work with! I hope you leave this post feeling as inspired as ever! What do you think of the new gladiolus? Do you already own any of the other Year of Flowers sets?

This is another amazing flower. The impression plate is very clever too as it compliments older stamp sets.
I really like the new impression plate…I can only imagine the possibilities with the coordinating stamp set. Can’t wait to order it!
Wow, so many gorgeous samples. You continue to amaze me with your showcasing the versatility of these YOF sets. Love the impression plate as well. Will help me to break out my neglected GL set.
I want to be like you when I grow up, Nichole!!! Your colouring is absolutely exquisite. I continue to be afraid of stamps that need a lot of colouring…. The impression plate is a definite on the wish list
This is just a beautiful set! And the coordination of the impressions plate and the guide lines stamp set – perfectly PTI!!!
I love all the Flowers of the Month. Great job on the cards. The Impressions plate is also going on my list, which by the way is growing longer each day.
Fantastic idea to bring out the impression plates. Love it!
Yes! I have got Guidelines already so can’t wait to try them with the impression plate – its a lovely effect. And “Gladdies” – my Dad grew them in straight rows in our garden when we were children – lovely memory.
WOW~~ this image is so beautiful!!
How absolutely beautiful! Each month, I think I don’t need it all. Then you come up with stuff like this!! LOVE the samples, the stamp, and the dies!
When my daughter was in Kindegarten her class planted flower bulbs. She couldn’t remember the name but she knew it was the “happy” flower. They planted gladiolus. The image in this set brings back such a wonderful memory and the examples you shared are beautiful.
This set is Beautiful it reminds me of my nannys garden.
I also love the impression plate I think its a must have.
I am in LOVE! I NEED this set!
I love this new impression plate. I don’t have Guidelines so I guess I will have to buy that set as well. Your artwork is so lovely. Thanks for taking so much time preparing these wonderful creations for us.
Another beautiful flower set! I can’t wait to get this impression plate.
I think my husband has caught on… each month I need it all.
The year of flowers line is gorgeous, I’m amazed with each new addition that they continue to get more beautiful!!
How clever to have the Guide Line impression plate work with Giga Guide Lines stamp set. It really creates a unique look.
Oh, I do love the flowers :O)
My grandmother always had the most beautiful glads in her flower garden. This set brings back such fond memories. And I’m loving the Guide Lines impression plate. I can just imagine the possibilities. Thanks, as always, for sharing your creativity!
Wow such a gorgeous set! Beautiful! Can’t wait to get inky!
I love the guidelines impression plate. I have a hard time keeping my guidelines stamps aligned correctly and the impression plate should help.
Once again, I want everything – so glad it is my birthday month!!!
It seems like I only can say Wow, all the new stamps have the wow factor. I really want them all…… Start saving ,
Another beautiful addition to the YOF series. I am so happy about the guidelines impressions plates. I just purchased guidelines so this makes me so so happy.
I am loving this release so far!!
Great stamp designs as always!
Beautiful flowers and lovely designs. Major WOW!
gorgeous~ you’ve captured the beauty of all the YOFs.
I am such a sucker for the YOF sets and the impression plates – seems I HAVE to have them all! It sure would be nice to win them though!!!
This plate is oh la la la! How much fun. I adore that it works with guidelines as well. I don’t have that one yet, but it is back on the must list.
It’s a good life!
Terri E.
The flowers are so pretty when you color them. Thanks for sharing such inspiration. This set is really beautiful.
Another amazing flower and I just love the guidelines impression plate too. Will make lining up those images so easy!
Love the glads! I don’t have any of the flowers yet…..and that impression folder looks pretty interesting too! I’m really loving the idea of backgrounds like the one that is shown.
Love the impression plates, will make it much easier to use my guideline stamps
all of these examples today are simply stunning, nichole! i have yet to purchase any of the yof sets, but they are ‘on the list’! i’m super excited about the guidelines impression plate. i love that you are making some that go with older sets! thank you
What a beautiful addition to YOF. I haven’t seen a glad stamp anywhere before.
Love these impression plates to go with my guidelines.
Another lovely addition for your Year of Flowers. I always thought of gladioli as “funeral flowers”, but recently purchased some loose ones at Trader Joe’s. What dramatic flowers! Your new set captures that and I LOVE the examples using the new stamp. Beautiful! The new grid impression plate is a MUST HAVE…not only for its own pattern, but for lining things up as you did with your background stamping.
Beautiful flower image. I love this year of the flower series.
GL Grid Impression Plate is a must have … just breathed new life into a set I haven’t used in a while!
These are just so beautiful the samples are amazing. Again another amazing month. I am in Love!
I think this is my favorite flower image of the set! And the guidelines impression plate is AWESOME!!!
I just about died when I saw the gladiolus sneak peak…every one of the flower sets has been so meaningful for me and this one may just take the cake! On the morning of our wedding, friends drove all around buying every last gladiola stem from the buckets at the end of our Mennonite neighbours’ driveways. The church was overflowing with their sprays of bright colour. You have captured them perfectly with this stamp set – so beautifully elegant! I can’t wait to get my hands on this set..only 2 more sleeps thankfully 🙂
And loving the new impression plates, even without the coordinating stamps it’s so classy. Combined – simply amazing. What a beautiful release!
Right now I only have the YOF lily but I will definitely be adding this set to my arsenal! I loooooove this flower!
Very very pretty with great samples and ideas. Great addition to flower of the month.
It seems that every time you introduce a new Year of Flowers set, my favorite changes. 🙂 These cards are all gorgeous and I like the look of the new impression plate as well.
You wouldn’t think one would get a chuckle out of this set, but when my siblings and I were little, and we were getting on my mother’s last nerve, she would to say: “I should have raised gladiolus!” I most definitely would have to make her something using this set! So pretty!
Thanks for the chance to win!
The color combinations are beautiful. I can’t wait to add this set to my others.
I love this new addition to Year of Flowers series! The red glads are my favorite!
The gladiolus is one of my favourite flowers. In typical Paper Trey style you’ve captured it perfectly! The colouring possibilities … Thanks!
Love this set and I adore the cards you made with it. Bye Irene
Another {happy sigh} for this YOF set. Your floral images have always made me go weak in the knees; I just can’t resist them. I’m also absolutely loving this guide lines impression plate. It really takes that stamp set to a whole new level!
This is a gorgeous set. I may have to make my first Year of Flowers purchase. And I love the impression plate.
Beautiful flowers and I love the impressions plates! Thanks so much for all of the ideas and wonderful products!
Another beautiful addition to the Year of Flowers! Your samples are so lovely.
Beautiful samples! Glads were one of the first flowers I planted when we moved into our house 11 years ago – I always smile when I think back on that! Love the impression plate too – my poor guidelines set have been very neglected lately – this is just the thing to make me pull it out.
OMG…I need to learn how to color with Copics like this…your creations are so beautiful Nichole.
Thank you for sharing your techniques each month. Just beautiful!
Since my birthday is in August, I have always liked gladiolus. It’s a beautiful set. I don’t own any of the other Year of the Flowers sets but want to get the Lily of the Valley and Rose sets. The new Guide Lines Grid impression plate is such a good idea – a grid without stamping multiple times for a card front and not limited to any color (I have the Grid cardstock too)! I have just bought the Guide Lines and Guide Lines 2 sets so I can’t wait to try them out with the impression plate.
Thanks for the giveaway!
This is my favorite Flower set by far!! I absolutely love how you designed the gladiolus flower. And the sentiment is perfect to use for friends and family. I have one friend going through a rought time right now and I know she will appreciate a card using this sentiment.
These flowers are beautiful. Love the new impression plate as well. I don’t have the stamp set, guess I need that one as well!
I think I want it all this month!
When I was growing up my Mom always planted these in the back yard….needless to say, I love them! Can’t wait to buy this stamp set!
I just love the year of flowers sets..they have all been wonderful…have had fun making cards with them for gifts…I anxiously await their arrival each month!
I love the new impressions plate and the stamp set Guidelines has jumped further up on my wish list. I have always liked it but didn’t want to stamp the line image over and over again nor did I want to keep buying the grid paper. You have done it again–made it easy to recreate card after card with this impressios plate.
Each card is lovely. Thanks for reminding me that I have linen vellum! I keep forgetting about it!
Beautiful…absolutely beautiful. Love the impression plate!
– the project samples this month are so inspiring! -looks like the impression plates will now find their way to my shopping cart!
I LOVE the year of the flower stamps! This is another great addition
These are just beautiful. The guidelines impression plate is great!
Another amazing stamp set! Love the plates! Thank you again for all you do!
The impression plates are such a wonderful idea. Can’t wait to try!
Oh my goodness! The flower set is GORGEOUS!! LOVE the impression plate! Sooo many creative possibilities. You’ve done it again!
The set is just beautiful and I love the new impression plate.
My mom’s favorite flower…good memories. I love the elegant simplicity of some of your projects. Need to go get creative…
Another beautiful flower set! And I LOVE the new impression plate….everything just keeps getting better and better!
The guidelines impression plate is fantastic – I love the symmetry it can add to cards by filling in those squares with a variety of images. The glads are beautiful; such an attention-getting flower!
I don’t use Guidelines as often as I would like and every time I see someone use it, I think, I should pull that set out and use it – it is so versatile! The matching impression plate is the first thing going in my cart on release night! Love YOF series too!
Love this set! Can’t wait to add it to my collection!
I have totally enjoyed the Year of Flowers line of stamps, & this one is no exception. How beautiful, & the projects are mouth-watering! I just love it…They remind me of my Grandma also! Good memories.
The flowers are very pretty, but I ABSOLUTELY adore the Guidelines and matching plate!!
Nichole these projects are lovely—your first card with the Copics and glitter is so striking—it’s hard to believe it’s a one layer card—there’s SOOOOO much there with the beautiful coloring!
The impression plate is so cool. I can think of a tons of ways to use it.
These flowers are sooooooooooo beautiful and then can make a clean card kit looking forward to owning all 12 and making them as gifts. Wonderful inspiration
Gorgeous! Love the glads with the glitter and the white embossed on kraft! Can’t wait to add this one to my collection!
That impression plate is beautiful!
The glads remind me of my childhood. They grew abundantly in my mom’s garden so she always had bouquets of glads gracing our home!
The Year of Flowers sest was such a wonderful idea and the Gladiolus is a fantastic addition to it I love your cards and the texture that the new impression plate added to them.
Another great set!! Great cards also!!
Wow, I can’t wait until the 15th. Your cards were amazing!!!!! Love it all!!!!
Very pretty samples! Love the new impression plate!
Did you know when you started the company that so many stampers would be headed to the poorhouse because of it? Please, stop making such great stuff every month. The bank is going to deny my request for a loan again. They just don’t get it.
So very pretty and love the guidelines impression plate!
the new impression plate is a must for me. I love how you incorporate images from prior sets. So much time and thought is put into the products from PTI. I love seeing your samples, I’ve missed seeing your creativity.
Just loved the examples of the Gridline Plates with stamped images inside!
What a gorgeous design. I just love the white on kraft with the simple stitched lines. What a timeless stamp set to own.
Oh my…love the new impressions plate….and whats not to love about gladiolas!!!!!
I love the new Gladiolus set and textured impressions plate! This is one of my favorite Year of Flowers sets yet! I can’t wait to try out the Guidelines set with the new impressions plate!
Divine!!! Love the impression plate and the new flowers are beautiful! Classic 🙂
What a beautiful addition to the Year of Flowers! The projects you shared showcase the stamp set so beautifully especially with the new Guide Lines Grid impression plate.
Gorgeous – you really captured the essence of gladiolus perfectly!!
The detail in this image is superb Nichole! You’ve really captured the beauty of these flowers. As always your projects are just so elegant and beautiful. Can’t wait to add this to the rest of my collection!
Glads have always been one of my favorite flowers. I can remember my father-in-law always having them planted in the garden and everytime I stopped in or they stopped by the house, he would bring me a bouquet of 4 – 5 long stemmed beautiful colors. It is a memory that will always be with me and now I can’t wait to make a special card to send to them using this set.
Beautiful coloring on these projests! I love that you included a sympathy sentiment with these flowers. I think it is a perfect fit.
Beautiful flowers! I love the whole YOF series!
Love the guidelines impression plate. They’d make a great background for any type of card.
I love these flowers and the beautiful cards shown today. Your year of flowers collection continues to grow beautifully!
Oh gosh! I am not sure I can wait until the 15th I am so excited about all the new goodies. Thanks DiAnn
Gladiolus!!! Aren’t they beautiful? They’re my favorite flower.
I love the impression plate! What a great idea. And gladiolas are such beautiful summer flowers. The color possibilities are endless.
Just beautiful! Love how you can go simple or fancy! Thanks for the chance to play : )
Lovely, lovely, lovely! The impression plate is such a great idea and I love the set. *Must* get that mat stack 4 die, too!!!
Love the year of flower stamp for this month. I have them all so far and am sure this one will be in my cart this month. Love the impression plate too and it will really help me to get my Guidelines stamps straight.
I didn’t consider myself a big gladiolus fan until I saw what you did with the image… really beautiful! The new impressions plate is a nice addition, too!
So beautiful, I can’t wait to have the whole YOF sets!
I love the white ink, so unique.
Have to have this one too. I love the year of flowers images as each one gets more beautiful than the one before.
So fresh and pretty!
Great samples!! I can not wait to get my hands on this set!! I have Guide Lines…so I may just have to pick up that impression plate too!!
the new gladiolus is amazing! i love the center bloom details. wonderful sketch of a beautiful summer flower. it reminds me of Macaroni Grille, they always have white gladiolus’ in their restaurants(it is my fav place to eat).
i love that you used vellum in a lot of the samples this month. i always forget to use vellum. and when i do, i am not sure how to glue it down.
The impression plate is wonderful! I will need to get the guide lines now too,…I love this combo! And, the gladiolus is lovely,….it looks so beautiful colored, and so elegant just as an outline.
Gorgeous set – love the Flower of the Year sets!
This is a great flower addition and impression plate. No, I don’t have the guidelines set but would love to win it. Thank you for sharing. God bless!
Well, I love the new Guidelines plates! This will make using that set so much more fun!
I don’t have any of the Year of Flowers sets you but I know I’ll be adding this one. Glads are my Grandmother’s favorite flower and I have fond memories of going out to the grower’s farm and buying them by the buckets full.
Another beautiful additional to the year of flowers family. The impression plate is fantastic. I love my grid lines stamp set and can’t wait to add this to my supplies.
Beautiful set!
One of my favorite flowers!!!! They remind me of my Grandma.
Thank you!
-Kristin B.

Another beautiful flower set! I can’t wait to get this impression plate, as I have the guidelines stamp set. Such gorgeous card with the Gladiolus flower of the month.
Love this new addition to YOF. Would love to try the impression plate also.
I think this is my favorite flower set yet, and I just love the ways you used it in the samples today–from gorgeous to stunning to breath-taking! I also am extremely excited about this texture plate, and know I will be ordering this to make Guidelines so much easier (for me at least) to use.
Gladiolus flowers are one of my favorites, I’m so excited to see them in this month’s release! Whew…the 15th won’t be here fast enough, I’m so impressed with the sneak peeks! Thank you!!

The gladiolus are beautiful! The impressions plate is WOW when you paired it with the white stamp! The red and kraft “pop”! Can you tell that was my favorite card?? You are SO creative Nichole! This release it is going to be very hard to pick. I am glad I have a birthday next week. That justifies everything, right???

BEAUTIFUL! Love the Impression plate, tooo! How fun that you can use the Guide Lines set with an Impression plate now!

gorgeous, such beautiful flowers. your samples are wonderful and LOVe that impression plate!
Beautiful, beautiful Gladiolus. Your colouring is stunning, Nichole.
Beautiful! I love that the flowers look just as great colored in as just stamped. Thanks so much!!
I’ve always been drawn to stamps of flowers and other foliage, and once again you’ve created a winner of a set. I really like your card examples. They’re so beautiful.
I recently purchased two impression plates and I love them! This month’s plates are so versatile that I will need them in my collection for sure!
Beautiful flowers! I love how you showcase how it doesn’t have to be colored (since I am a “non-colorer” myself). I don’t have the Guidelines set but I LOVE how the impression plate works with it! Stunning!
You are a copic genius!!! Beautiful.
Cheryl Sims
What a beautiful flower! I love the Year of the Flowers series. And that impression plate is amazing! How will I ever decide???
Love, love, love the red card. The glad is a perfect addition. The guidelines impression plates holds lots of options and I love how it looks on kraft with snow white stamps to create a perfect background. Thanks for all the wonderful samples.
This stamp set is beautiful. The samples are awesome. I especially like the card with the red Gladiola’s that uses the guidelines impression plate. Imagine the beautiful card set this would make with each year of flowers stamp sets. Fabulous Christmas gift!!!
What a beautiful flower. These cards are so pretty.
So, I’m thinking to myself, there are so many great new fall sets, I’ll hold off on Year of Flowers this month so I can buy more of the other new releases. Then you go and show me these beautful samples. Another great addition to the Year of Flowers line-up, which I am now unable to pass up…
I’m definately going to have to get the new impression plate. I really like the look of it with & without the stamped images.
I really like the Gladiolus set too. Being August is my birthday month, this is one of my favorite.
What a detailed flower image! A great addition to the YOF sets. Beautiful projects, too!
Love the glads. Can’t wait to try the new impression plate with my guideline stamps.
Love the guide lines sets! Love the red gladiolus card. Beautiful!
I think the Gladiolus will be a must have stamp for me as it is my mom’s favorite flower! We used to have a whole garden full of these along the side our house. Wonderful memories!
Wow another great flower stamp in the YOF series. Also love the new impression plate and that it coordinates with guidelines to make fabuouse stamped backgrounds too.
Glads are such happy flowers, and as an August baby I simply must add this set to my collection. The guidlines impression plate looks very neat – I may have to add even more stamps to my cart on the release party.
I just adore this series and am so happy to see the impressions plate! Wonderful addition to my guidelines set.
Oh these are my own Dad’s favourite flowers! The garden is just a total mix of beautiful colours when they bloom! I love your samples – the impression plate looks fabby!
Hugs,
Aimes

What a beautiful addition to the Year of Flower series. I will be definitely be buying this set. And the impression plate is just perfect. I’m sure I’ll use my Guidelines sets more once I have this.
oh my word! this set is absolutely stunning. i have always loved gladiolas, so glad to see you create a set using them!! as always, i’m in awe of what you create.
I love Year of Flowers and this may be my most favorite yet. I have red Glads right outside my backdoor and watching them bloom each year is a joy. This set may even inspire me to replant some more to fill in the ones that haven’t returned. This set is just beautiful.
The eyeball card is by far my favorite card of this release…I can’t wait to stamp eyeballs on everything…:)
I have Guidelines so I am very excited to own the Impression Plate, especially seeing how awesome it looks in your projects. Each month, I gasped at the new Flower-of-the-Month. They are all breathtaking.
I am so excited about this new Guidelines Impression Plate! Since the moment you first started releasing Impression Plates I have hoped you would do a design like this!
Love it!
Those flowers are perfect & I love the new plate!
Beautiful cards! Always amazed how you showcase the flower sets!
I love the different looks from just one stamp set! Beautiful!
Love the impression plates! Would have to get that. Fabulous projects!
Another gorgeous flower. I love them embossed – what a beautiful look and can be done so easily!! The impression plates are perfect for many cards.
I just love all the year of flowers you have designed! A MUST HAVE!!! Beautiful cards, once again! And I love love love the impression plate!
Another beautiful addition to The Year of Flower sets. Every one is as pretty as the last.
The new impression plate is to “die” for. Quite clever how you can use the guidelines with it.
I love gladiolus and yes, I do own the guidelines set, this is one tool, the new impression plate, that will help me pull it out of the box more and more. Such beautiful samples!
I love the impression plate and how it coordinates with the Guide Lines stamp set. Your cards are so beautiful; thanks for sharing.
I love how PTI is constantly creating items that coordinate with its preexisting supplies, like the guidelines impression plate that goes with the guidelines stamp set. Thank you for always incorporating sets and supplies from the past along with the new.
Looks like a very pretty set. Lovely cards you made with it!
Love the gladiolas, but what I’m really drooling over in this post is the great effect with the guidelines impression plate + stamps. So cool!
My heart be still! Your cards today are AMAZING! The Guide Lines impression plates knocked my socks off. Your ingenuity is jaw-dropping, to say the least.
Beautiful! I love the new impression plates too…I can see so many uses for them!
BEAU-TI-FUL!! Gorgeous flower image and LOVE that impression plate….my head is swimmning ideas for Guidelines!!!
We had glads in our wedding bouquet and floral arrangements, they were so pretty! I am really ‘IMPRESSED’ with the guidelines impression plate! I really like the photo of showing us how it stamps, just doing a portion of the grids! Love the look! I do not yet have Guidelines and would love to win this prize! Hint….my birthday is Saturday 🙂
I love the impression plate! That is AWESOME! And the green adn kraft card is so, so CUTE!!
My birthday is in August and I have been eagerly waiting the release of the Flower of the Month… you never disappoint. This set is beautiful.
I’m very interested in the Guide Lines Grid impression plate. I use the Guide Lines Grid paper but can see where the impression plate would give you so much more variety in cardstocks and inks!
When I was a little girl, my mother had some gorgeous gladioli planted along our back fence. I used to sit out there and stare at them, pretending they were majestic towers in a fairy palace. Thank you for choosing this wonderful flower. It brings back some lovely memories!
Simply gorgeous! I love how you can get totally different looks by coloring the flowers in, and by just stamping them in a single color!
Your samples are lovely. Each month you create such beautiful projects.
My mom used to raise glads when she had a big garden! This would be such a great set to have! Thanks so much for a chance to win!
Beautiful! I love the new impression plate. Very cool. Once again, the projects are fantastic. PTI makes it all so easy!
Im so glad you picked Gladiolus. My mom had hundreds of beautiful glads in her garden every year. I have all of the YOF sets and I will definitely be getting this one.
One of my favorite flowers! I LOVE your card ideas, Nicole. Look forward to the Year of the Flowers Series stamps each month. These news impression plates are beautiful too!
Beautiful flowers and beautiful cards!
That red card is so. awesome. Now I KNOW I need the die AND the glads!
Very beautiful!!
I like looking at the design team’s projects and I visit every month, but I don’t know why I bother. 🙂 I’m convinced from this blog alone!
the flowers are gorgeous and I love your color combos!
I am not a floral person, not really me, but these sets are so gorgeous. Love the new impression plate! Gotta have.
I love the new impression plate & the ideas of stamping in the squares. I have the Giga, but not original guidelines – though it’s on my wish list. Lovely coloring of the glads.
Stunning! Another amazing addition to the YOF. I love the way you can only use a portion of the image and it still looks just as awesome.
WOW! I’m not a flower girl and you have made me LOVE year of the flowers! You are so very talented!
Another beautiful flower set. Love the samples. Thank you!!!
Beautiful cards; the red/craft cardstock is my favorite! Gladiolus have a special place in my heart! Kind of a long story to share here, but it’d be awesome to win this set! Thanks for sharing and the chance to win!
The flowers are lovely, I like all the different ideas you have provided!
I think the year of flowers is such a beautiful idea, I look forward to its release each month. The cards you make for these sets are always fabulous!!
I look forward to the new flowers each month now and this one did not disappoint (as usual). I hope you continue with another series of something next year too.
Absolutely beautiful! Can’t wait to get my inky fingers on it!
Goodness me those flowers are spectacular – I am really excited for this release 😀
Love the new guidelines impression plate and know it will make me dust off my guidelines stamps — haven’t used them in awhile. And the gladiola set is gorgeous — just as I would expect!
Wow, wow, wow! OK, I need to have this set in mu collection, my wish list isn’t getting any smaller this month! Great projects!
Another amazing flower for this series… I think this might be my favorite yet!
I am in love with this addition to the Year in Flowers! Just gorgeous and the impression plate is to die for!
I love the samples you’ve created with this stamp set – especially the red one.
These are Gorgeous! I am loving hte flower series! So elegant.
So beautiful! Can’t wait to get my hands on that impression plate either!
The new impression plates are a must have for me. It would make my life so much easier. The Guide Line sets are on my ‘want’ list so all the more reason not to wait any longer. The Year of Flowers series just gets better and better with every release.
Don’t have the original set…but love this set! The impression sets are all wonderful!
I love the new impression plate, such a great idea to use with the flower set, and the impression plate like a garden lattice! TFS!
I love the Flowers of the Month! I need, need, need the Guidelines impression plate. LOVE IT!
What an amazing addition to the Year of Flowers series. I’ve been collecting them all, and love them! They make such a great set of cards for quick & easy gifts. The new impression plate is awesome as well . . . need to dig my guidelines set back out.
I haven’t purchased any YOF sets yet but I am thinking this month might be the month! You really have thought of everything, and thank you for teaching me how to use my Copics!
How do you do it?!? Every month gets better and better! Beautiful set.
I love this year of flowers set, and the impression plate. I don’t own any year of flowers set yet. Lovely, lovely projects – I can’t wait for this new release.
What beautiful flowers. And the impression plates look super, I love that background you made.
Eveline.
Oh my goodness, how absolutely beautiful. I can’t wait to get the impression plates.
I am not usually a big color-er, but these are FANTASTIC! Lovely set!
Beautiful!! love how you shortened it for the mat….
I love everything! The Gladiolus are just beautiful, and the Friendship Jar Refillables are so sweet, I can’t wait to get them all.
Thank you again so much for sharing your beautiful cards with us.
I love glads & this set has not disappointed! Can’t wait to add it to my flower of the month collection 🙂
I don’t own a Year of Flowers set yet, but I LOVE this one. It would be so fun to color with my Copics!
Wow, beautiful creations. I really need to complete my YOF sets.
I’m hoping that one day I can design, color etc as well as all the DT does. All your previews so far have taken me back to simpler times and I love reminiscing about my family and all the great times. I love all the gorgeous flowers in this series.
TFS
What a beatiful and realistic image for the YOF set. I love all the detail, and your examples. . . well you always seem to come up with something for everyone. Thanks.
I just love the year in flowers series and this one does not disappoint! And of course the new impression plates to work with the guidelines stamps are to die for.
Glads were my grandmother’s favorite flower. Love this set!!
Norma
Gorgeous! Another must-have! This is shaping up to be one of my all-time favorite releases! I absolutely love everything.
Gardening is my creative outlet in the spring and summer. I love all the colors God gives us through flowers! Your flowers images are amazing and you do such a great job coloring them…so life like! I say this with every order that I place, and I have to say it now…you’ve done it again PTI!
Another beautiful flower set! I just love how you embossed it in white on kraft, gorgeous!
wow, another lovely flower to add to the collection. Sadly I don’t own any of the flowers yet … but they are on my “must have” list! And this impression plate is perfect!!!
Simply love the grid impression plate! year of the flowers stamps never fail to impress me!
Fantastic! Another great Year of Flowers set. I love the new impression plate and I love that it works with the Guide Lines stamps.
Absolutly Fabulous!!
Wow! The red gladiolus with the Grid Lines background is amazing, just gorgeous!
I haven’t purchased a YOF in a while but this one is definitely speaking to me. The images are jut beautiful
And the guidelines impression plate – love it! I love that I’ll get a grid on a whole card front without hving to line up the grid stamp! Yeah!!!!
One of my favorite flowers! The impressions plates are cool!
Love the new impression plates & it goes without saying the flower set is once again outstanding!
I haven’t purchased any of The Year of Flowers Sets yet, but you are tempting me with all all your beautiful creations. Although, I do own all of your Impression Plates and I will be adding the new Guide Line Grid Impression Plate to my collection. I just love how it can be used with the Guide Lines Stamp sets.
Wow! Every month I think there’s no way you could top last months release but I’m wrong again 🙂 Can’t wait to order !
Love the Glads (we always called them Flags!) and I see that I need to add GG and the new impression plate to my stash. These cards are just beautiful. I just love the details you add and the inspiration they provide. Oh, my aching cart!
your projects are amazing. Love the project with the red gladiolus – just beautiful!
another lovely set! the glads are just soo pretty… love it!
So beautiful! I love the impressions plates – just what I’ve been looking for! And I’m excited to get all the guideline stamp sets, as well. Beautiful projects, too – I feel so inspired by them all.
So pretty! I love your YOF series, and it really is very versatile. And the new impression plate is stunning; I like how it can be used with Guidelines.
I really love your Year of Flowers line! This Gladiolus is gorgeous!
LOVE the pink card so beautiful.
These are beautiful. I must admit when I saw the sneak peak I wasn’t too sure if these would be for me but once I saw Nichole’s and Debbie’s cards, I was sold. They are beautiful. And I love these sets because as a non copic person, we can still make beautiful cards.
Oh these projects are gorgeous! This stamp set is beautiful!! I love the Guidelines Grid! It is pure genius!
I trully enjoy the year in flowers set, so nice. I totally loved the card with the flowers in red against the poppy red ribbon, can´t wait to give it a try
Wow, wow, wow!! I am loving the Year of the Flowers series of stamps. Gladiolas are one of my favorite flowers and you have captured it so well. Going on my must have list!
Glads are one of my favorite flowers. So many color options.
What beautiful cards. Thanks for all the wonderful inspiration.
stunning!!! especially love it in red!
Oh Nichole, these cards made me cry! Gladiolus were my sweet grandma’s favorite flowers, and even though she’s been gone for many years I still miss her. All of your creations with these flowers are so beautiful. And I’m delighted with this new impression plate! It will be wonderful to use with the Guidelines stamps, but I can think of dozens of other little stamps that will look fantastic stamped in the squares; so many creative possibilities!
How ironic as my DS’s grandmother just gave me a bunch of gladiolus this week. I’m sure I’ll fair much better with this stamp set than the live ones. I’m already managing to kill the flowers (I’m awful with plants)! Love the pop of red against that Kraft BG. Will definately have both of these on my list this month.
This post just put my budget over the edge. I love the jar halloween and fall additions and the new impression plates are just my style….Thanks for creating such awesome timeless stamps
Ok STOP.. I cant take it! LOL!!! BEAUTIFUL cards Nicole.. so cant wait to get shopping… I feel a VERY FULL cart coming on! 🙂
Your gladiolus cards have a classic look which I really like. The flowers are beautiful! I look forward to seeing new impression plates each release now. They add so much interest to my card projects!
This August I’ll be fifty-four
I can’t think what would please me more,
Than to to find this delivered to my door,
Stamping with glads would be no chore!
I just love the year of flowers stamps. Can’t wait to order some more things.
Beautiful samples today! I love the gladiolas, but am really excited about the impression plate. It will be fun to revive my guidelines set again!
I love the impressions plate and the beautiful gladiolus. Your faux tiles are wonderful and I can’t wait to re-create the look.
Love how the guidelines stamp will work with the Impression Plate. Did you have that in mind all along? Love the gladiola!
Love the year of the flowers – I have trouble growing gladiolus – I can enjoy these year-round!!
Beautiful cards! I especially love the red one. And the impression plates are a wonderful addition to Guide Lines, although there are so many possibilities for them even on their own.
Goregous and so very creative…just like everything you make, Nichole!
So beautiful! Your coloring skills are amazing! The impression plate is so versatile. Can’t wait till the 15th!
Oh…….. my……… The new YOF gladiolus is GOR-JUSS! And the Guidelines Impression plate packs a wallop! How can I possibly survive until they are at my house??? Another over-the-top introduction. More love…. More sighs….
Oh wow…I’m floored. Those cards are so simple yet so elegant! I cant wait to see more.
Loving those new impression plates! Can’t wait to making textured backgrounds. 🙂
The flowers are absolutely beautiful. I love how you can just stamp the outlines of it & it’ll still look great w/o coloring.
I love the Guidelines impression plate. I can imagine using that over and over and over…
All of the YOF sets have been gorgeous & this is yet another example of a beautiful stamp set. Love that Guide Lines impression plate!
I am loving the guidelines impression plate. Both the guidelines and giga guidelines are on my wish list. This impression plate definitely rounds out the collection.
Glads were always a favorite of my lovely mother. This set will remind me of her always. It is a beautiful set. I especially like it done simply with the white ink on cardstock.
Absolutely STUNNING projects !!!
Gladiolus are one my most favorite flowers. I actually have pink ones growing outside my front door right now. This image is beautiful, and I can’t wait to get my hands on it!! Great job as always!!
Glads are so pretty as in any flower. My grandfather used to grow these and I have to say have become a favorite. Beautiful cards.
This set is so pretty! Love the sentiments!
I love the Guidelines impression plate…that might have to become a staple in my stash!
I am sure I am not the only person who is collecting and using all of the YOFs! This one is amazing! Can not wait to add to the growing collection! The sentiments on those sets are used over and over and over! THANKS so much for such great art to color and paper piece!
These flowers look just beautiful–can’t wait to add it to my YOF collection! My daughters and I are both enjoying this series so much!
Such beautiful details in the flowers! Thanks for all the inspiration!
will definitely have to buy the gridlines impression plates – can see lots of possibilities for using them. glads are gorgeous as are all your cards!
Gorgeous, understated pattern in that impression plate! So useful for all kinds of styles. And I just love how the gladiolus has been captured. I adore those flowers and have never succeeded at growing them, so maybe I’ll be able to stamp some beautiful ones instead! 🙂
Another great set and impression plate! Love the classic style of them both!
Glads are my fav flower. OK, one of my favs. These samples are stunning. The Guidelines plate is perfect. Pretty sure it will become a staple in everyone’s craft arsenal.
Beautiful flowers! Love how clever you used the stamps!
I love the gladiolus and your cards are beautiful. I especially like the first one with the glitter, but I also appreciate that you showed ways to use the stamp without having to color.
Wow! This is a gorgeous stamp. I especially love the modern simply chartreuse card you’ve shown. The impression plate is a cool idea, too!
beautiful! Love it!
How do you keep doing it? This is another beautiful set!!!
Wow, another great flower in the series! I don’t have the guidelines stamp set – I need to go look at it in the store now! LOL.
Perfect projects as always – this is my favorite collection of stamps – I look forward to see the new addition every month!
I love the new impression plate! It can be utilized in so many ways with different small stamps.
Must have the Gladiolus YOF set – gorgeous! Plus it will complete my set of YOF, I must get them all! The flowers are so fun and relaxing to color but also can stand alone when stamped in white or embossed. So versatile and beautiful!
The guidelines impression plate is pure genius! I’m so excited to finally actually start using my Guide Lines set!
I love how you’ve made the impression plate to fit with the guide lines set. I can’t imagine the amount of forethought that goes into everything that you do in order to have everything coordinate so nicely!
I LOVE that impression plate! It will be so fun to use! Your flower samples are gorgeous! I especially love the Pure Poppy one! So vibrant and pretty!
I think this my favourite in the YOF sets. WOW!!!
Again – amazing projects and fabulous new goodies. I’m constantly amazed at how your design team can incorporate old and new images. You guys just blow my mind each month. I love all the new tools, stamps, paper. Love the mason jar additions.
What a gorgeous flower set! A super addition to the series. And the Guidelines impression plate is very inriguing – can’t wait to see more projects using this…
Oh I love this! I think I’ve said that about all the Year of Flower sets. =) I have almost all of them too. The ones that are not yet in my collection will be added later. I don’t think i can have enough flowers! They are just so versatile. Plus, I love the impression plate! What a great way to gain extra use out of an old set. That’s what I love most about PTI.
Another beautiful flower! Your designs keep getting better and better!
The cards are so beautiful and the stamp is fabulous. Gladiolus is another of my favorite flowers. I remember growing up with Chanel bags all around me and that is what I thought of as soon as I saw your use of the impression plate. TFS.
These cards are gorgeous. I have really been drawn to the simply stamped flower cards. They look so elegant and lovely.
Another great stamp set. What I love about your company is how everything is created to make great projects with inter- changeable elements and you can get it all in one place and use it more than once!
I grew gladiolias one year as a summer Home Ec. Project and had gladiolias at my wedding, so I expect I should remain true to what they meant to me 50 plus years ago and buy the stamp. 🙂 You definitely make them look awesome. What a great idea to produce the grid to help us make card backgrounds easier, thank you
Another gorgeous flower set! Those leaves are just calling me to hand cut them out!!!!!
The Guide Lines Impression Plate paired with the Guide Lines stamps is so pretty! The backgrounds are limitless!
Another wonderful addition to the Year of Flowers! I need them all! 🙂
The Year of the Flowers has been an amazing addition. You inspired me to learn more about each of the flowers you’ve selected. Your cards are beautiful and I am over-th-moon for the impression plates for Guidelines. YES…YES…YES…THANK YOU!
OK. I’m swooning over everything!!! Beautiful flowers and love the guide lines plate.
Fabulous new addition to the flowers series–your samples are just wonderful! And I LOVE the new impression plate–so many possibilities! I only have one impression plate so far and use it all the time. Thanks so much for adding these to the PTI line!!
The flower stamps are so beautiful. The guidelines grid impressions plate will produce the 3-dimensional effect I love; paired with guidelines stamps, the results will help me create cards I’ll be happy to send!
Wow! Awesome cards and ideas. You always have such wonderful ideas and products to go with them! Can’t wait to see more! Love it all!
Your talents really show through when you demonstrate how versatile these beautiful flowers are, colored in or not. And a guide lines impression plate is a fantastic idea! PTI has so many images that will fit into those squares besides the guide line sets. Can’t wait to get my hands on that one.
Wow, Nichole…..LOVE the new IP! Your impressed and stamped background is full of texture!
what a great year of flowers addition. Love the impression plates too! So exciting
The flowers are gorjuss and the samples look wonderful. I hope I win….
I love how you show us so many options with one stamp! All of your stamps are so versatile, and you show us exactly that with each post. Thank you!
Gladiolus bring back such wonderful memories. Our garden was never complete until we had at least one row of these flowers planted. Love the soft pink version with the glitter centers!
I LOVE the Gladiolas set!!! It is a must have for me. My MIL always had these in her garden and they were gorgeous! I plan to use this set for a scrapboook in memory of her as she passed away last year.
THANK YOU PTI for creating this fabulous set!
I have been looking for a stamp of this flower and you have created the most gorgeous one I have seen!
These are one of my favorite flowers! With so many colors, I can’t wait to play with this set! And the new impression plate is awesome!
This flower brings back such wonderful memories of my grandmother. She lived next door to us when I was growing up and every year she would plant glads along the fence line in our back yard. This is a must have to add to my collection of YOF.
I love everything you have done this time. My list is growing so long. I just hope I can get caught up on my list and get to using all of the items. Thank you for all the interesting ideas that you make up. Love it!
A beautiful addition to YOF series. I love the gladiolus done in the pure poppy copics.
How pretty! I love every single Year of Flowers set that is released. And, I can’t wait to get the Guide Lines impression plate!
Your cards are beautiful!! I love the Year of Flowers series. I can’t wait to get this one!
I can see the Guidelines Grid Impression Plate becoming my little black dress of impression plates. It is a wonderful classic that you can rely on and go to again and again.
Love the Glads but then again I love the Year of Flowers collection. The guidelines impression plate is another must have. Can’t wait till the 15th again.
Wow, fabulous samples. I love the new stamp set and the impression plate has so many possibilities!
The simplicity of your Always Here for You card makes it so elegant. I’d love to own this beautiful set!
This is even more beautiful than I imagined. Such a gorgeous flower!!!!!!!
I do have the original guidelines set so I am thinking the impression plate is a must have! I also love the beautiful flower image for this month!
This set is just beautiful. And the impression plate is a great addition to so many set I already have. I love how versatile it is!
Wow, what another fun YOF set! The guidelines impressions plate seems like an awesome addition as well! The impression looks like it adds so much!
Oh so lovely! What a wonderful addition to this great year of flowers lineup. 🙂
so glad you came out with these flowers…so beautiful 🙂
Another wonderful addition to the Year of Flowers series. I have a couple of the sets now and I love the “big” stamp. Most of my collection includes wonderful small to medium sized images so the Year of Flower images are really out of the box for me. I’m loving them!
Love the Year of Flower sets!! And the impression plates are fantastic. Everything works so well together – all the mixing and matching!!
these cards are so pretty! I love the kraft/red combination especially.
Love this gorgeus image! Stunning cards too. Can’t wait to ink this set up.
This is a great flower image! Would love to have this in my collection.
The gladiolus is such a classically beautiful flower and I think you have captured it in all its glory! Way to go…another winner!
Love the entire Year of Flowers series. Your sample cards are great.
I am still wanting to add YOFs sets to my PTI treasure trove and would LOVE to some day do a whole calendar so that I could just change the monthly pages with each new year & always have the gorgeous flower pages to enjoy month after month. I’m sooo thrilled to see the impression plates for Guide Lines — Woo-Hoo! Looks like that PTI Wish List just grew AGAIN!
I love gladiolus! I wish they would grow in my garden. I really want the giga lines sets!
I’m in love with every single YOF addition and this month is no exception!
Love the new flowers! And nope… I don’t have the guidelines stamps. Yet 🙂
This is a very beautiful set. Love the cards made with it.
Beautiful! I don’t have any of the year of flower sets, yet. I’ve been wanting them all.
These flowers are so pretty.
Your cards are absolutely gorgeous Nichole!!! I so love this YOF series, they are all so much fun to color and make such beautiful cards!!! 🙂
Wonderful addition to the year of flowers sets! I already have the violet set, and have used it bunches. Thanks for the chance to add this lovely one to my arsenal!
I think this is my favorite year of the flowers yet! And the impression plate would be sooooo nice to have. Oh, I want it all! Stunning cards once again!
Don’t own any of the flower sets yet; this one is a must have. Love what you’ve done with the impression plates!
I love the simplicity of the impression plate…so basic, yet so useful. It makes a great “trellis” background for the flowers!
By Far! My favorite flower yet, just too lovely. And your coloring on the first card is just amazing. Love the impression plate as well, since I do not have the guide lines stamps, MUST get them as well! WHoo
The gladiolus is beautiful and I’m so happy to see the plate that can coordinates so nicely with things we already have! Way to go!
Absolutely love the glads – they are such a beautiful flower. Really enjoying the YOF series.
I love the newest Year of Flowers! I can’t stand spiders but your spiders are too cute!
Such a great suggestion to make a set of the cards in various colors as a gift! I always stayed away from flowers but you make it look so easy that I may have to give the other months a shot…thanks for the inspiration!
BEAUTIFUL cards!!! I just love how you did them all. The new flower is just wonderful and I love the impression plate too.
The samples are just beautiful! I love the kraft one with the white image and the button accents! The impression plate looks awesome!
how pretty this set is. i love flowers. the impression plates are great too, so versatile. thanks.
Beautiful addition to the year of flowers collection! My mother always loved her “glads” and had good luck with them in the garden. I can’t wait to order this set!
i love how you can create such different projects with one image!! they are beautiful. thanks for sharing.
Absolutely beautiful Nichole! The red glads are my favorite. Love the impression plate too! Brings added versatility to one of my favorite older sets.
Linda
gorgeous stamp and gorgeous cards!!!
Just beautiful! My great aunt always had these in her yard when I was a child. This is another wonderful additon to the YOF sets!
Really love the series of flowers you have been doing. Another great one.
I love, love, love how the Impression Plate can be used with the Guidelines stamps!!! Thank you for giving us so many options with using your products!
This set is so sweet and feminine!! I love it
I LOVE all the flower of the month sets, but this will be my favorite. Combined with the new and versatile impression plate, this one is a winner. Well done!
Your flower set just keeps getting better and better! … I like how you can make it bold or subtle …
The YOF was such a great idea! I love the sets I already have and this one is a great addition!!
Love the cards, another cute yof set, And I don’t have guidelins but this impression plate really makes me want it now! very very cute!
Another great flower set…gotta add it to my collection 🙂 Great projects Nicole, I always love countdown time…you and the DT make beautiful creative projects.
I have purchased most of the yr of the flowers and the new one is another positive to add to my collection. Using the guide lines impression plate will make using the guide lines stamps soooooooooo much easier. What great ideas.
‘Glads’ bring back fond memories for me of going to the local farmer’s market on Saturdays with my mom. Having an August birthday, she’d always buy me a bunch as a treat! Beautiful set for this month’s release
As usual, your Year of Flowers cards are absolutely gorgeous! I’ve been dying to get more into coloring with alcohol markers, and every time I see your cards, I want to run right out and buy all the coordinating Copics. Thanks for sharing such inspiring ideas!
I’m amazed at your creativity! Every month is something new…and wonderful!
This is PERFECT!!! I can’t wait to get my hands on the Guidelines Impression Plate! It will be a wonderful alternative to using the Guidelines paper and so creative too! Thanks PTI for excellent ideas and products!
Gladiolus are one of my favorite flowers. The stamp is beautiful and very classy. Love the clean lines of the impression plates.
Love your Gladiolus stamp set and what you have done with it.
Those impression plates are awesome, too!
thanks for the opportunity to win!
Absolutely beautiful samples for the gladiolus. I also like the impression plates.
I have resisted Guidelines until now… that impression plate has pushed me over the edge – in a good way!
I have not purchased any of the YOF’s to date, but glads are truly my favorite 🙂
Really loving the new impression plate! Very beautiful samples as well!
Silly me, here I’m thinking “You don’t need more floral stamps!!”. Love all of the monthly floral sets – gorgeous!!
I love all of your year of flowers sets. This one is especially lovely. I really enjoyed the card with the red gladiolas. Very striking!
And yet another wonderful set in the year of flowers series. So far I only have two of these sets and I’m sure I need all of them. Thanks for a chance to win this prize package.
Once again…another amazing YOF set! This has been my favorite PTI series, and have collected the entire thing so far. I adore the sentiments…I use them all the time, with and without the flowers! Thanks so much for bringing this set to life this year!!
I’ve been anticipating this set ever since the series was introduced. It’s my mom’s birthday later this month and it’s her favorite flower. I hope I get it in time. She’ll be 89 and I know she’ll love it!!
certainly lends itself to some beautiful creations!
Beautiful projects, love the set!
Beautiful addition to the Year of Flowers – and that impression plate will go on my wish list for sure!
I really love the gladiolus – so beautiful. The new texture plate is great too. My PTI wish list keeps getting longer by the day.
In these challenging economic times, I am just allowing my Papertrey wish list to grow like crazy. I hope to get all the flower sets eventually, but this will have to be my first. It is beautiful and the elegant, gorgeous cards are such eye candy!!
The gladiolas are glorious.They will be so fun to use.
Brilliant impression plate, it is first on the shopping list, well tied with several others!! The gladiolus is magnificent! I love your red ones!
Glads were my grandmother’s favorite! Love this.
Beautiful flowers!! I would love to win this set along with the impression plates. I haven’t purchased any plates nor flowers yet, but they are on my wish list! 🙂
I like the new addition to the YOF series…but I LOVE the new impression plate… what a fantastic idea! Love that I can use my guidelines set in a different way.
Charmaine
I don’t have any of the year of flowers series yet, but I do love these gladiolas. I love the large scale.
I have totally loved all of the Year of Flowers and this one is no exception! I absolutely adore the Red Gladiolus card! It’s so beautiful!!!!
I love using background stamps and textures, so the guideline impression plate is for me! Thanks for sharing all these beautiful ideas with us!
Genius!!! I love the guide lines impression plate. And your glads are beautiful. My favorite flower set yet!
Just beautiful! All the cards are so pretty. All the flower sets are so beautiful. And the impressions plate is on my wish list now. TFS.
Gladiolas trigger fond memories of my grandmother’s garden. Thank you for this beautiful and meaningful stamp set.
Incredible – I think the gladious is my favorite flower now!
I do love the year of flowers series and the artwork you create is absolutlely stunning! I love how you showcase the versatility of using it – color it in for a more time-consuming card – or color blocked for a quicker card. Doesn’t matter which, they are all equally elegant!!!!
OMG! what a BEAUTIFUL flower and LOVE how it looks paired up with the new impression plate and guide lines stamps. You projects are beautiful and inspiring! Thank you!
WOW, this si so stunning. Nichole, I’m always drooling over your creativity…. awesome. I like this filigree flower – and the sentiment are perfect!
Soooo pretty! The new impression plates are great new additions to the guide lines series.
I love the Gladiolus in red, really stunning.
And the Giga impression plate is genius.
Looking forward to the release.
I always look forward to the next instalment in the Year of Flower series, and this one is worth the wait! Once again I am totally inspired by Nichole’s cards, and jealous of her work with Copics. The Guidelines stamp sets are some of my favorites, so the new impression plate will be in my basket come the 15th.
Lovely flowers! The impression plates are awesome!
This might be my favorite flower yet – it’s beautiful! And I’m so happy to see additions to the Guide Lines group – I absolutely love those sets. 🙂
Another great addition to Year of the Flowers! I love Gladiolas and this is just perfect to add to my flower stamp collection. The guideline impression plate is such a smart idea. Got to pull out my Guide Lines stamp set to play with again, that’s for sure. I must give PTI credit where credit is due. You guys are amazing! I love how you are always thinking of ways to use older stamp sets. Some companies seem to abandon their older stamp sets and try to sell you all these new products, but you are always thinking of innovative ways to combine old stamp sets to new products. Makes me feel like I’m not wasting money on these sets and that they’ll last me a lifetime (instead of just buying a set that will only last me this season). Love you guys! You ROCK!
I own the June YOF set and impression plate. I remember one of my grandmothers always had gladiolus in her yard. Brings back nice memories.
I love your samples, Nichole! I love the how the machine stitching adds such a wonderful detail to your cards. Thanks for a chance to win!
Beautiful cards Nichole!
Another great flower set. I love the size of these stamps. Makes for a quick and easy card.
I love the year of the flower sets and I especially the guidelines impression plates, what a great addition!
I look forward every month to the new YOF sets. This one might just be my favorite. I love gladiolas! We planted about 100 of them this spring and are still getting new blooms each week! They are one of my favorite flowers! This set is going to be so much fun to play with.
Wow, these are beautiful! I have always loved glads & now I can have them without the earwigs! The new impression plate is super – I have the original guidelines set so this is a must have. Thanks for the endless stream of creativity!
Love the impression plate! Great job!
Lovely. There are so many occasions for which these flowers would be perfect.
That impression plate is awesome and I think it will make using my guidelines stamp set so much more easy to use. I also love the gladiolus set and I can see myself using copics in a variety of coloring variations :).
Another beautiful flower in the series! I don’t have any of the flower sets yet, but I can feel my resistance waning with each new release! Love them!
Genius as usual. I LOVE the impression plate and think the 2nd card is very clever – wil be looking at my floral sets in a new light now !
The ‘fresh snow’ ink on kraft card is my favorite!
Love, love, love the new Guide Lines impression plate! Great idea. Also loving how the new Gladiolous stamp takes up the entire front of a cardand what gorgeousdetail too 🙂
pretty!
Your projects with Year of Flowers are absolutely beautiful. What a great idea to have a guidelines impression plate. This is actually much better than the Guidelines paper which I am always reluctant to use because I don’t want to run out, LOL. Thanks for the chance to win.
Year of flowers is such a great idea! Very pretty….
The Guide Lines Impression Plate is genius! Will definitely need that 🙂
Really lovely addition to the Year of Flowers series! I love the Guide Lines Grid impression plate—genius!! Thanks for the chance to win.
Nicole, you make the flowers come to beautiful life! What a beautiful image!!
I love the Flowers… allllll of them… I want, i want, I want… 🙂
The gladiolas are beautiful! Stunning cards!!!
Gorgeous flowers! And I really love the impression plate – such a cool idea to use with the stamp set!
The Glads are gorgeous! And the Guide Lines grids are fabulous! I love my Guide Lines stamps!!! Now there’s more to love!!!
Of all your releases, the YOF sets speak to me the most. Today’s card with the red glads makes me think of Christmas.
Oh this addition to the YOF is gorgeous! My mom always had gladiolus blooming gin the summer. What a beautiful flower! The new impression plate looks very versatile also!
That flower is gorgeous! And the impression plates are definitely coming home with me!
Yet another beautiful set for YOF! I LOVE that red card, pheomenal!!! Must add the impression plate as well, that would truly make life so much easier 🙂
Be still my heart!! Love this new addition!
That flower is so pretty, especially when it’s pink.
More things for my wishlist – I’m going to be bankrupt!
I absolutely love all the year of flowers sets I have. Gladiolus is a must have too! And the new guide lines look super fun. I especially like that there is an impression plate that goes with this one.
Such stunning flowers, in real life, and as a stamp! I love the bright boldness of the red flowers you colored. So stunning!
I love this addition to the Year of Flowers! The glads are beautiful!
These are absolutely gorgeous! I only have the first YOF set (the violets) because I haven’t been able to order since that release, but all the sets are on my wish list. I love the variety of ways you showcased the gladiolus, especially the two with kraft paper.
I had forgotten all about my Guide Lines set, so now I’m inspired to dig it out. I really like that texture plate. As usual, Debbie is so inspiring. I love your coloring job on the Gladiolas set, Nichole 🙂
What a beautiful set! I love the guide lines impressions plates. My mind is already whirling with the possibilities.
I love this set, so pretty. I like all the projects.
I love the flowers of the month series and this month’s did not disappoint. I am very intrigued by the guideline products. I can feel my pocket getting empty!
These flowers are absolutely gorgeous (I think I have said this every month!). The impression plate especially is brilliant, and I love the tiled look you created on the second card.
Wow, it all looks awesome! Love the gridlines impressionplates and I also love all the different ways that you can use the flower stamp! Love the glitter but also keeping it plain stampedin white…so versatile 😉
My heart be still…I’m in love!!! This is definitely a must have for me!!! Love the plates too and how I can combined them with the Guidelines Set.
Fabulous sneak peeks Nicole!!! Hugs ~S~
What a beautiful addition to all of the YOF sets. Your examples are marvelous
The YOF series is so fabulous Nicole! I love all of the cards you made with this set. Love the guidelines plate, I have the guidelines stamp set, will have to buy this fab new matching plate!
I can’t wait…a Guidelines impression plate:0) I love the way it makes it look like tiles!
Another fabulous flower!
Gorgeous set! All the sets in the YOF series are so beautiful and intricate and the projects are stunning!
Gorgeous!!! I don’t have any of the Year of Flowers sets yet but I LOVE this one!!! Really enjoying the sneak peeks!! Thanks for the chance to win! Katie
beautiful flowers and i LOVE the guide lines grid impression plate. the stamps look beautiful in the embossed lines, so pretty!! the YOF stamps are so elegant stamped on their own and just stunning when colored in.
I would/ use these stamps and impression plate lots. These are my type and style. I can’t wait to try them out. Waiting until the 15th and then shipping time is hard sometimes. LOL
I love the year of flowers series. The images make great, elegant cards every time.
I love the new set! My mom loved glads so this would be a nice addition to my collection. I love the impression plate, too. I wonder what it would look like inked?
Thanks for the opportunity to win!
Wow, not only a beautiful new flower but I love how you used the background impression!
Love all of your Gladiolus cards today! In the YOF series I only own Lily of the Valley – so far. I’ve always steered clear of images that need to be colored to be breathtaking, but was taught how to use Copics at CHA, so now I’m catching up on those coloring-type images. Thanks for the chance to win!
SO pretty, and I am very excited about the impression plate!
A must have set–my grandmothers favorite flower–god bless her!!!
Wow these projects are stunning! Again, another great release.
I love all the year of flowers series. I can’t believe how they just pop right off the page. The Gladiolus are gorgeous they take the cake. I can’t wait to play with them. I want them all. If there were only a Peony it would be complete. Great job once again..
I don’t have the guidelines yet, but I need it now! Love these flowers too!
The new gladiolus set is absolutely GORGEOUS! And I love the beautiful projects you created with it!!!
What a fabulous idea you had in the grid line impression plates. I definitely will be ordering those unless, of course, you pick me as a winner. (keeping fingers crossed)
Love this set.
What a gorgeous set!
These are just fantastic. I just invested in some copics so can’t wait to try them out. Can’t wait to see what else you have in store for us.
The flowers are very pretty and I really like the new impression plate!
these are beautiful. absolutely beautiful!
The flowers are beautiful and I love the guidelines impressions plate!!
I was hoping and hoping the August set would be gladiolus. Like many others, my grandmother grew these in her yard and they remind me of her. AND it’s my birthday month! All the samples were lovely — so many different colors and styles!
Stunning!
I’ve been eying the whole Guide Line series and this new impression plate is just the icing on the cake! After seeing your amazing creations using YOF Rose stamp set, I was definitely inspired to add that series onto my wish list as well. Now how come it feels like I want to order something new daily? Ahhhhhhh!
Love the Gladiolas!!! Another impression set? Looks great!
I love the guide lines grid plate I might even be able to get things centered and even. The gladiolas are beautiful LOVE flowers!!!! Ann Lind
So many possibilities with this set. It is beautiful! I love the ideas you have shared.
I have one word: LOVE! Can’t wait to play with this new addition to YOF!
Absolutely gorgeous! Glads are some of my favorite flowers! Terrific samples!
DeniseB
What a beautiful addition to the series!! I love the new impression plate too!
SUPER cool! Now I must have the impression plates as I am already in love with the Guidelines sets!! What a marvelous creation!!!
The YOF just keeps getting better and better. Love glads and the card with the red ones just takes my breath away-beautiful!
I love all of the flowers of the month sets. This one is no exception. Great job.
Ahhh. Glads are my dream come true, and not just for a stamp set. My husband always bought me glads when our children were born because I love them so much. (It was a little harder to find them for the spring babies!)
Glads are such beautiful flowers and one of my mother’s favorites! This set is gorgeous as are all of the year of flowers sets. And Guide Lines IS on my list of “to buy”–that impression die is fab.
love your samples. my boys picked to plant gladiolus in my back flower garden this year.
I do have the original gridelines in my stash, and now I HAVE to have the impression plate! Love it!!!
I just love coloring all of these flowers. Can’t wait to try the new Glads.
Love this one too! The cards you made today were absolutely stunning! I am always inspired by you!
I am always amazed when you show your beautiful samples for the Flower of the Month Nichole! When I first see these flowers, I think they really should be colored to be beautiful, but you make some of the most gorgeous cards by simply stamping with Fresh Snow or one color of ink! AMAZING!
This set is absolutely gorgeous! I really, really want it! The cards are amazing.
Beautiful, just beautiful……I’m speechless. 🙂
I love the Mat Stack 4 die and the guidelines impression plates are also great. It is all works together 🙂 It is so hard to narrown down my list of must haves…you’re killing me!
I love gladiolus. They were my dad’s favorite so whenever I see them I think about my dad. Your cards are beautiful as usual and the new impression plates are wonderful…can’t wait to use it with my guideline stamps…
Oh I love the new impressions plate – I can’t wait to use my guidelines set with it!
THe new Guidelines Impression plates are so awesome and the way you stamped within the gridlines is fantastic. I am especially taken by your card with the red Gladiolas and the red ribbon that you folded to accent the flowers. Stunning. You are an inspiration!
I love the red glads, that card is just beautiful. I have most of the flower sets and hope to get them all as I want to make beautiful calendars with them for gifts. Also have Guide Lines so that impression plate will be a nice new toy! Thank you.
I love the beautiful addition to the YOF line. And I am also loving the guidelines impression plates, maybe these will help me to pull out my Guidelines stamps and use them again.
Beautiful Gladiolus stamp…all of the Year of Flowers stamps are wonderful! No, I do not have any of them yet, but sure would like to get one. Impression plate is another nice addition. As always beautiful card samples and your Copic coloring is so very nice. Wish mine looked that good!
I love the Gladiolus stamp! I already have a few of the other Year of Flowers set, they are definitely must haves. I love them so much, such fun to color! The new impression plate is great also. Can’t wait to add both of these to my collection.
I really love the Year of the Flowers sets. These are great. This is months is on the top of my list. I love how it looks great when colored and without coloring.
OOO so pretty! Thanks for sharing. I love the guideline templates!
what beautiful projects, and I love the impression plate
I love this additions it is so gorgeous. I need some of that white embossing powder also. I just want everything this release.
These were my mom’s favorite flower. How beautiful are all your cards Nicole.
I love this set very much!!
What a gorgeous set! I love all the possibilities you’ve shown.
Oh wow – what an amazing way to use my guidelines!! I just LOVE the way all my beloved PTI works together like magic!! The YOF is too beautiful – what amazing artistry.
Wow, you are one clever lady! I just love what you’ve done with Gladies stampu, and I love the impression plates.
This is such a beautiful set and love the guide!
Just beautiful!! I love the grid line impression plate. That will help me so much with lining things up
Cynthia
Beautiful cards! The flower set is very pretty but my favorite is the Guidelines impression plate!
I just love this series. Another great addition!
Gorgeous flower set! I have not been able to purchase any the year of flowers sets, yet, but I think they are all gorgeous! And, I am SO excited about the guidelines plate!!!
Simply beautiful. Such beautiful flowers and although I can’t color all that well, I would love to have this set to do the tone on tone cards you showed.
WOW, this is my favorite YOF set yet!!! Love the red card!!! So dramatic and pretty!
Beautiful!
Gladiolus are one of my favorite flowers. This is beautiful. I love the guide lines texture plate as well.
Gladiolus are one of my favorite flowers….so I am sure I will have to have this Flower of the Month! The projects using this stamp are really beautiful…..
I am glad to see the impression plates for grid lines. I have the set but could never get the grid lined up.
Thanks for the chance to win.
WOW! I am loving the guide lines impression plate. What an awesome addition to the store. Thanks for another beautiful flower set also.
Boy do I ever love the gladiolus. All the series of a year of flowers are great. I eventually want all of them as the budget permits.
the gladiolas are GORGEOUS!!! i can’t wait for those beauties to arrive on my doorstep!
Such gorgeous flowers!
What gorgeous flowers!!! The new impression plates are awesome, I am loving all the plates.
The image is gorgeous, the cards absolute perfection, and this is my mom’s favorite flower!!! Everything is fine in my world!!
Beautiful as always. Seeing your cards always inspires me. I also love the new grid background, the possibilites with this are endless as far as the stamps you can use to make backgrounds.
Since I already have Guidelines and am loving the immpression plates that I have so far, that would be a good one for me to try. I also think that the Gladiolius is very striking and dramatic as a focal point for a card. As usual, too many great offerings to choose from, I want everything!
Stunning, every sample!
The flowers are just beautiful! And the grid line impression plate is something I’ve definitely been waiting for!
The year of flowers images just keep getting better and better. Each time I see one I want to spend the day coloring and creating – thank you for this beautiful series.
I truly appreciate that you showcase YOF cards without coloring. It is amazing they are just as stunning as the cards that implement coloring. The guidelines impression plate is a must have, too.
I would LOVE to add August to my YOF collection! I just love that there is alot of flowers on each spray.
My Grandmother’s favorite flowers were glads. I remember then quite well growing in her garden next to the vaggies, and the geese tromping though. This set is special because it reminds me of her.
Beautiful and elegant.
Simple but not… gorgeous!
Wow-another gorgeous addition to the Year of Flowers set! Is it possible that you measure in dog years though–that way we have lots more months to look forward to these sets? 😉
What a beautiful set…and as usual all of your work is just beautiful…thank you so much!
This set is so beautiful. I always look forward to every months year of the flower. It’s just getting better and better every month. The Guide Lines Grid Impression Plate is one must have. It’s so amazing how you create the tile look background.
What beautiful creations! Have got to get some of these year of flowers stamps…my birthday is coming up, I’m totally going to be asking for some of these 🙂
Pick me, oh pick me!! 🙂
I love these – well, all of the YOF!
I really love all your choices for the YOF series–but I guess I’ve never met a flower I didn’t like. And the impressions plates are so clever.
Love the next addition to YOF. Love the guide line plates. Love it! Love it! Love it!
Super cute! I have a couple of the YOF sets and would like to get them all! I don;t have anything from the Guidelines yet but it’s totally on my wish list!
Flowers have always been my number 1 image to use. I also like the idea of the new grid lines impression plate.
stamp on…
Another fabulous guide lines addition – and added to this new flower which is a real summer favourite – a sure winner again!
all your ‘year of flowers’ is always so nice.
Stunning flowers!
