Somehow this Oh So Eclectic Springtime Card With Flowers came together this morning. I think I am having withdrawal after Sale-A-Bration ending! Plus we had been on vacation in Arizona for a week, and as of last night I thought I had lost all my mojo, even dropping an ink pad on the floor (luckily it landed ink pad up!). After thinking so much about the free Sale-A-Bration products, it’s time to go back to the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog! Somehow this stamp set and dies, plus paper, popped into my head, but I waited until this morning when perhaps I would remember how to stamp a card!!!
The card base is Peekaboo Peach, one of the In Colors that will be retiring soon. Honestly that group of In Colors wasn’t my favorite so I need to use up some of the cardstock! If you don’t know what colors to use together, take a look on the back of the package of Designer Paper and see what coordinating colors could be used together. I chose the Naturally Eclectic Designer Series Paper and Berry Burst was one of the coordinating colors. I used Berry Burst for the layer underneath the Whisper White.
Next I used the Eclectic Layers Thinlits Dies to cut out the rectangular shape and some flowers. You can purchase the Oh So Eclectic Stamp Set along with the dies and save 10% off the purchase price in the Oh So Eclectic Bundle.
And finally I added some Peekaboo Peach 5/8″ Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon as an embellishment. This is a fun ribbon to use! It has a nice feel and the crinkled look is something different. And it will probably retire since Peekaboo Peach is one of the retiring In Colors. (I assume!)
I left off the greeting until I decide which one I want to use on this card. It could be almost any occasion, the colors and designer paper have such a happy look to it. Oh, and behind that die cut design I cut a piece of the Naturally Eclectic Designer Paper to adhere behind the open design. The multi-colored pattern I choose makes a colorful background!
Fun card to make and the die cuts make it easy! Whether you stamp or use die cuts, you can make something springy and happy like this Oh So Eclectic Springtime Card With Flowers.
