Today’s card is simple but gorgeous, and we owe it all to the Designer Paper!!
I started with a Rich Razzleberry card base measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored at 4 1/4. I layered a 3 x 4 1/2 piece of the Peaceful Poppies designer series paper on a 3 1/4 x 4 3/4 piece of Old Olive cardstock. I wrapped a piece of Whisper White Crinkle ribbon around and tied it in a bow. I adhered it to the card base using Foam Adhesive Strips.

I used Black Memento ink to stamp the sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set on to a 2 x 3 piece of Whisper White cardstock. I then cut the sentiment out using the Frame die from Painted Labels die set and adhered it to the card using a few dimensionals.

Today I’m sharing a card using the “So Sentimental” stamp set from Stampin’ Up!
I made this card using the “Lily Impressions” Designer Series Paper (FREE with a $50 purchase) and Blushing Bride Ink and Cardstock! I also used the new “Label Me Lovely Punch”!

I started with a Blushing Bride Card Base (8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored at 4 1/4). I put a 5/8 x 4 3/4 strip of Blushing Bride cardstock across a 3 1/2 x 4 3/4 piece of Lily Impressions DSP, then wrapped some Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon around it and tied a bow.

I punched a piece of Blushing Bride and a Piece of Whisper White using the Label me Lovely punch. Stamped my sentiment on the Whisper White punched piece using Blushing Bride ink. I cut the Blushing Bride punched piece in half (from straight edge to straight edge) and layered it to back of sentiment. Then added a 1 x 2 1/4 strip of Blushing Bride to the back. This gave the punched sentiment an outline of Blushing Bride! (this is a great trick to get more use out of your punches!) Then I used some stampin’ dimensionals to add the layered sentiment to the card. Lastly I sprinkled on some tiny pearls!

I made a card similar to this last week for my Monthly Card Class using Melon Mambo as a color theme and a sprinkling of rhinestones!

One of my all time favorite movies is The Wizard of Oz. Up until now, if I heard the word “poppies” I pictured the wicked witch hovering over her crystal ball chanting “poppies, poppies, poppies” while casting her potion of poisonous poppies over Dorothy and the gang to lull them to sleep. But now, with Stampin’ Up’s introduction of the “Peaceful Poppies Suite” of products in the new 2020 Mini catalog (pg 24-27), I think of the beautiful designer papers and stamped images and sentiments !! This suite of products contains 2 awesome stamp sets with coordinating die sets, an absolutely gorgeous pack of designer papers, elegant crinkled white ribbon, a set of poppy die cut and printed elements, and decorative sequins! Watch the video below to get a look of these amazing products now!

Happy New Year and Welcome 2020!
I have a New Years card that I made and would like to share with you today.
I used 2 stamp sets to make it, “Cheers to That” and “Sip Sip Hooray”. Both of these stamps are retiring so if you like them you’ll have to purchase before the end of the day tomorrow (Jan 2nd)!

I started with a Gray Granite Card Base (8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored at 4 1/4). I embossed my Gray Granite card mat (4 x 5 1/4) using the Stylish Scroll embossing folder (also retiring) and adhered it to my card base.  Next on a piece of Whisper White (3 x 4) I stamped the champagne glasses using black Memento ink then stamped the hint of champagne and bubbles in So Saffron Ink. I went over them slightly using Wink of Stella to give them a little shimmer, however it’s very hard to see it in my photos. I mounted my stamped image on a piece of Basic Black (3 1/4 x 4 1/4) and adhered it to the card front. I took a strip of Basic Black (1 x 3 3/4) and clipped each end of the strip using the Everyday Label Punch. I stamped the sentiments using Versamark Ink then applied Silver Embossing Powder and Heat set the powder until it was shiny!

I looped some Silver Metallic thread behind the sentiment and adhered it to the card with Dimensionals. Lastly I added a couple of Rhinestones to each end of the sentiment.
