By now you know me…this is my kind of card BUT…I am the first to admit…it looks much better in person than it does on the computer! I know that tonight when we put this card together for the Breast Cancer Angel Card program I am helping with…the recipients will surely have a smile! I received the inspiration from my wonderful upline, Mary Fish, when she showcased this stamp set last month!
Yellow makes me smile – how about you!?!? It is always a "pick-me-up" that always perks me up! The focal point to this card is the Best of Flower Stamp Set…in honor if Stampin' Ups! 25th anniversary! Another reason it pops is because of the strong color (This is Poppy Parade – a discontinued card stock from last year…but I do love it and have a pack around!)
The stamp set of Sassy Salutations is just fun and fresh and the sentiments always hits the spot! "Thinking of you" means so many different things to many…..I just love the whimsical way it looks!
This fun and festive paper came from the Sunshine & Sprinkle Designer Series from our SUPER Spring Catalog! Just love the depth it gives! After Stampin' the flower with Soft Suede I added a dab of Dazzing Details to the centers of the flowers…let them dry before I popped them out with the 1 1/4 " Scalloped punch.
Naturally I had to use my Stampin' Vitamins, Stampin' Dimensionals….just love these little gems as it gives the extra special POP factor! The "sentiment piece" needed to be framed and then matted to continue to give it depth!
The 2 finales of this card was to add the little piece of Soft Suede Taffeta Ribbon ( in a knot of course) and then doing something "out of the box for me" – lining my envelope with the SOLID color paper and then using the STAMP as my focal point! FUN…..right!
The end result was a super cute & fun card that will surely make someones day! I appreciate you popping by….I appreciate your emails……I appreciate your comments….and as always….until tomorrow!!!!
Have a super-duper day 'cause I am going to as I know that the satisfaction we will do tonight in making many cards will bring joy and a smile to many people dealing with Breast Cancer.
We all have a gift to give…we are all blessed in our own ways….take a moment to find you inner gift and "pay it forward" ….Stampin' hugs to all!
Love the red and yellow together. Gorgeous.
Like the color combo amd the style of the card.
I never think to finish my envelopes with paper on the flap. It adds so much to the card presentation.
Thanks for reminding me, now put it to work.
