Thank You Card - May 2020 International Blog Hop


I created this card using the Very Versailles stamp set and a free stamp set during Sale-A-Bration, Thoughtful Blooms. I was looking for a really small flower that I could stamp among the leaves and this was the only one I could find that I liked. The card base is Petal Pink card stock, 8-1/2”x 5-1/2” scored at 4-1/4”, the mat is Pear Pizzazz card stock, 5-1/4”x 4”, and the Whisper White card stock is 5-1/8”x 3-7/8”. I used Soft Suede ink, Petal Pink ink, and Pear Pizzazz ink. I used the 5/8" Organdy Striped Petal Pink ribbon for the bow and the Stitched So Sweetly dies to die cut the sentiment out of Whisper White card stock. The image fit perfectly in the center of the die! No fussy cutting on this card! Have a blessed day.

So Sentimental Get Well Card

It is time to stop hoarding your Designer Series Paper and start making cards with it. I designed this card to make it easy for you to use any DSP and create cards with it. You can also turn the card  so it opens on the right. Change the card stock, DSP, ribbon, and ink and you have a completely different look. Have fun stamping and have a blessed day!

Parisian Blossoms Thank You Card

Today I wanted to make a card using a stamp set and die from the 2019-2020 annual catalog and pair it with something from the mini catalog. I chose a few items from the Parisian Blossoms Suite, A Big Thank You stamp set, and the Thank You die. I really like the way this card turned out. I think the only thing I will do when I make it again, is use the Subtle Embossing folder on the Pool Party card stock before I glue it to the black card stock. Try it both ways and see which way you like better. Have fun stamping and have a blessed day!
