This Share What You Love Floral Card is made with the beautiful specialty designer paper called Share What You Love. This is a “specialty” paper because four of the sheets have a translucent pearlized finish. That makes it a little difficult to photograph with a bit of glare. Perhaps you can tell in the photo that the silvery look of the flowers and leaves is really the shimmer in the light from the paper.
I think sometimes we get so caught up in the current catalogs, whether the Holiday or the Occasions Catalog, and we almost forget about the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog! It was like going home and finding some old friends to go back and work with this Share What You Love Designer Paper!
This card was made because the ribbon you see on the side is now available FREE as a Sale-A-Bration item during March. Stampin’ Up! added several Annual Catalog products to the choices of things you can pick with every $50 purchase. This Rich Razzleberry 1/4″ Velvet Ribbon is one of them! It’s a very nice, quality ribbon and will add a richness to your cards or projects. It coordinates with the beautiful Share What You Love Paper. Be sure to click on or use the number on the Sale-A-Bration page in the Online Store for it to come up as free. Don’t use the regular catalog number.
To make this card I used a base of Pear Pizzazz Cardstock with a layer of Rich Razzleberry Cardstock underneath the designer paper. The greeting is stamped on Whisper White Cardstock in Rich Razzleberry Ink. This was then die cut with the Layering Ovals Framelits Dies and layered on a Rich Razzleberry oval die cut with the oval in the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies. The velvet ribbon is adhered on the side of the card with just a separate piece of ribbon tied in a knot at the top. If you were going to mail this card a bow would probably be too thick.
Here is an easy thank you card I made using the Velvet Ribbon you might like to see.
