This is another card made with one of the papers in the Frames & Flowers Specialty Designer Series Paper, the Frames & Flowers So Happy For You Card. This card is easy to make, especially with the help of one of the new Ephemera Packs.
The card base is Calypso Coral although Pumpkin Pie is the coordinating color with the paper. But this looks fine and matches the paper and the flowers. The layer of designer paper on the card is “the other side” of one of the foliage patterns. The Frames & Flowers Paper is extra-special because besides three double-sided sheets of designer paper, you also get several sheets of punch-out diecuts of all kinds of foliage, flowers, and frames! So many pieces to play with and design a lovely card, scrapbook page, or other project!
For this card, I diecut a large circle in the Spotlight on Nature Dies in the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. This is a great set of dies with lots of different sizes of circles and all have an interesting border around them. If you would like the Bundle, you get the dies and the Spotlight on Nature Stamp Set and save 10%. The stamp set has very soft and pretty sketches of flowers, a stem of leaves, and a butterfly that you can use on many projects. This is one of the products that I suggest even if you don’t want the stamp set, get the dies because you. will use them a lot.
The little bouquet of flowers in the center couldn’t be easier! They are one of the diecuts in the Frames & Flowers Designer Paper and there are many to choose from! I simply punched that out of the paper and adhered it to the Spotlight On Nature diecut. I popped up the diecut circle on the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The ribbon is one of the very pretty new ones in the Annual Catalog. It is called the Iridescent 1/2″ Striped Trim. It’s a very pretty sheer sparkly ribbon on the edges and on the middle stripes. It will beautify lots of cards and projects in the future! I tied the bow and adhered it with a Mini Glue Dot. I also added three little Iridescent Faceted Gems.
The greeting is one of the many diecuts in the Saying Something Ephemera Pack. We have four ephemera packs to choose from, one of the new and different products in the new Annual Catalog. This one has lots of greetings to use on projects of all kinds. I glued it down flat at the bottom of the card.
In yesterday’s post, I made a card using the Frames & Flowers Specialty Designer Series Paper but it has a whole different look than today’s card. That shows how versatile this fun pack of paper and diecuts can be! Be sure to check it out.
