It's hump day…that means it is Wednesday and I am doing a "happy dance" with today's card! As I told Hannah…I think that this is definitely on my top 10 for this year! WHY??? It is totally me…clean, crisp and super simple!
Before we get going today…wasn't the blog hop GREAT! Wow – so much talent out there…I am always amazed and inspired!
Let's get going as I have the dimensions for you…and I know you like that when I do it! I want you to totally CASE this card and have fun with colors, have fun with the sentiments….just have FUN!
The stamp set is called Pictogram Punches and I have no idea why it has taken me this long to order it….t totally blew past me and I am sooooo happy it is in my studio! Tomorrow I am also going to do another card using it! I love all of the little images and the total simplicity of it!
I did a quick surf on Pinterest and saw the Night of Navy used and thought….LOVE IT! This is a kind of card that my Mom would have just loved it! I know that she would have said…"make me a dozen of these"
- The card is the good old A-2 card in Very Vanilla and then the Night of Navy is 4" X 5 1/4"
- The DSP is Flashback – I am loving this as it looks super super as the background neutral is Very Vanilla…a bit softer!
- The DSP size is 2 1/2" X 4 1/2" and then the Very Vanilla piece that you will be stamping is 2" X 4" and then I matted it with Real Red a "smidge" larger – 2 1/8" X 4 1/8"
- The KEY TOOL is…..the STAMP-A-MA-JIG!!! I know no sighs….just do it! It would perfectly to align up everything!
- TIP: I like to stamp the flowers on the paper and then I also used scraps to stamp again and then using the itty bitty accents punches….soooooo cute! I adhered them with a simple glue dot and then added a teeny, tiny pearl!
- Because this card is so simple, a quick lift with some stampin' dimensionals made the card come to life! True I have used a lot of paper, but remember…cut out the insides with some punches to reuse!
- How about this sentiment! it is from the must have photopolymer Stamp Set, Endless Wished and it is a TOTAL keeper! Look at all of the fun sentiments!
- All that is left is the envelope and I am super smiling with this envelope! I did a double whammy again! Now wouldn't you love to open up this card!
Carrying the DSP, I lined the outer flap! So quick yet fun! I do hope that you can see that a clean and simple stamp set like this can bring you a multitude of FUN!
Please pop back tomorrow for another Pals Paper Art Challenge….see what I have up my sleeve! Email me if I can help you and I hope that you all had as much fun as I did going through all of the blogs!
Until tomorrow!

Cute! I just got my little punches Friday and I love them ! Now you make me want to get this stamp set !
Happy feet doin’ the dance! Love this card….simplicity at its best! Thanks Susan for your inspiration!
Awesome layering! Very elegant!
Fun and fresh. I know my Mom would love this card too!
Definitely a happy card. Here’s some good news that will make you happy…it’s Thursday, not Hump Day. The weekend is just a day away! Of course as I start back to work on Monday I wish it was still Hump Day and I had another extra day of vacation. LOL
You had me worried as I swore it was Thursday and thought, oh crap, I don’t think I can stand another 2 days at work! Fun card and my mom would loved it too even though it wasn’t green! Green was her favorite color but the flowers what catches your eye anyway! Fun and fresh!
Dear Susan, What a great card. I have to get that stamp set it is on my wish list.
I love everything about this card sweet. You did it again. Love It. Hugs, Ellen Hinds
Love love love…you are such an inspiration!
