Hello and happy Monday! Thank you, all for stopping by. I hope you had a great weekend and you're ready to kick off a new week with a wonderful blog hop.
We've got some great stampers from around the world participating and I know you're going to come away with a ton of inspiration.
The theme for this hop is "Thanks". The criteria: anything goes as long as it uses current Stampin' Up! products.
For my project, I knew I wanted to make a card. We all need to say thank you at some point or another and what better way to do so than with a card. I also knew I wanted to incorporate the new Well Written Framelit dies.
I used Blushing Bride cardstock for my card base, measuring 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4" to make it a true quarter fold card (5 1/2" x 4 1/4"). I then ran another piece of the bIushing bride cardstock, measuring 5 1/4" x 4", through the Big Shot using the new Country Floral Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I then cut a strip of basic black measuring 2" x 4". A strip of the Highland Heather Gingham Gala DSP cut to 1 7/8" x 3 7/8" is then layered overtip and a piece of Petal Pink/Whisper White 5/8" variegated ribbon is then tied around it; and then adhered with stampin' dimensionals to the card base. On Whisper White, I stamped three different hibiscus flowers from the Humming Along stamp set. I then coloured them using Stampin' Blends in Highland Heather and Petal Pink; and some accents in Old Olive and Daffodil Delight. The flowers I then fussy cut out; but don't worry, there are actually framelits available so you don't have to do that..and adhered the flowers using a combination of snail and stampin' dimensionals. From a scrap of basic black, I used the "thanks" framelit from the Well Written dies to add the sentiment to the bottom corner, this is adhered using a fine tip glue pen.
All in all, I'm quite happy with the result. What do you think?
Great card!
