Well everyone…I am sure that you all have studied this new catalog from top to bottom and I am sure that many of you have your favorites but today I am going to showcase a favorite of mine!
The minute I received the catalog and had the time to flip…flip…flip….I found myself always going back to page 144-145 – why? the top section of this super fun card!

I loved it at first sight and I love it even more in person…why? – Easy -peasy….
It's simple…it's clean…it's practical…it uses a minimal amount of product…it delivers the simple message…BAM!
You do not need me for this card…but I will share with you a "work-up" of a fantastic group of products that would get you to the "threshold of $55.00" so you can take a test drive with me…with Mary Fish…with Stampin Up! and the garage is always open for you to return your rental car with no penalties!
This is just using the note card bases and envelopes and then if you read on page 144-145 of the catalog, you will see that they used the Aqua Painters….(you know that I love them) but I have not showcased them in my "kit"…and I used a simple paint brush to do this….
I was worried about this "wetness" on the paper so I was a chicken and cut a piece of white use 1/4" smaller, but I did not need it! I will say, I much prefer the aqua painters as I feel like I have control with them but I was trying to duplicate the catalog as much as I could and it worked!
The next pictures of how I "stepped it up" a bit and added a couple of extras! This card is sooooo great and the best thing is how you can add these products as I have listed and you are off to a start of getting your 1st order of the new products at 30% off! I say that deserves a WOOT-WOOT, and please email me if you have questions!
This paper stack, All Abloom is wonderful…I am thrilled that Stampin' Up! is continuing to offer these for us! You can line (2) envelopes from one of the sheets of paper! This is just $6.95 – here comes another WOOT-WOOT! You can see that I lined one of the samples inside the envelope and the other to the outside – either way you can do 2 envelope with one sheet of paper!

I am sure that you have heard fom many….and you have also heard from me about the great no risk opportunity to have fun with Stampin' Up! and also be able to purchase your Stampin' Up! goodies for just $50.00~ Look below and see how I have "packaged" this post to make it doable!
In the chart above I highlighted the Moonlight Paper but then decided to change my mind once my order came in last night and I saw how incredible the All Abloom Paper is! You cannot go wrong with either paper stack – these are just little gems of paper love that need to find a way to your craft room!
The items that I have listed in the kit above are all "must have's" and products that you will use over and over – the basics at it's best!
Please email me and I will be happy to talk with you and explain how easy it is to be a hobby enthusiast (you all get really scared with the word Demonstrator) If you are ready ready to take your rental car out...click here and get the engine going!
I "thank you" for popping by today and I hope that this simple card brought a smile to your face! Last night I was like a kid in a candy shop going through my box of new goodies!
My goal is to get the ribbon share orders completed and in the mail to you by Monday morning….wow – I have a TON of ribbon and it is all sooooo beautiful!
I think that you will agree with me on this card – it does not get any simpler than this! I say – this is my kind of card and this is the card I will be making for everyone that took advantage of the ribbon share!
Have a fabulous day – and remember, in the below pictures of the products I used today…all you have to do is simply click on the picture and it will take you to my online store – easy!
Until tomorrow!
p.s. – I apoligize if you get this post twice…I did not realize until I woke up this morning that I have clicked the timer to go off at 3:30 p.m. and I could not go back and change it!






















Good Morning Susan, Love this card so much. I really liked that stamp from the very beginning. I’m trying to tell myself you can never have too many Thank Yous! I refrained and decided to go with something I don’t have any stamps for. I think one of the TYs from the photo-polymer set would work great with this layout. I can’t wait to try that today. Have a wonderful weekend! 🙂
I love the color combination! I’ll have to remember that combination when I get my ink!
Thanks for sharing!
Cyberhugs!
Susan, I love this card it is so YOU, I love everything about this card. It it such a great everything card and layout. The colors and the simple flowers are just the right amount needed. Thank you so very much, Ellen Hinds
I love the simplicity of the card and especially the addition of the flowers. They make the card pop
Love it, can’t wait to try my own version!
We all know great minds think alike! Well, this was my favorite thing in the catalog – this stamp and the card they made so naturally I loved yours even more! I knew you would add a liner or a flap to the envelope! I love these smaller pads of paper too! Oh wouldn’t it be great to have them in the smaller size like the 12×12 for each color group? The card with the additional little flowers is cute too. I was thinking about doing that as well as maybe a star shape and just playing around. Or butterflies even?!? Now I need to have a reason to send a thank you note so I can play with these! Of course my order for the stamp needs to come first! Have a great weekend!
WOW! I love your color choices and how absolutely gorgeous it looks with the floral paper on the flap. It just screams beauty! Looking forward to my ribbon shares! YEA!!!!
Chris, I love the idea of small paper stacks for all the color groups! You should send that idea in to SU! How easy that would make it to line envelopes and not as expensive as buying the large paper stacks.
As always, an awesome card. Love it and the colors and the paper stack is on my next order
