Simple Fridays with Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper


How about this for a simple but pretty card using the Fancy Flora 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper from the Mini Catalog.  This DSP reminds me of a Monet painting, which is one of my favorite artistic styles.  The Early Espresso 1/4" Faux Suede Trim coordinates nicely against this DSP and brings out a hint of Soft Suede color in the DSP.

Card Details:
  • Basic White Cardstock: 4 1/4" x 11", folded in half
  • Fancy Flora DSP: 5 1/4" x 4"
  • Wrap your Early Espresso Faux Suede Trim around the DSP before adhering to your Basic White Ccardstock card base
  • The "Wishing You All The Happiness You Can Imagine" sentiment from Art Gallery Stamp Set is stamped in Early Espresso Ink on Basic White Cardstock and die-cut using Something Fancy Dies
 




















Happy Birthday with Artistically Inked in Sweet Sorbet In Color


Today's card is created with Stampin' Up!s Artistically Inked Stamp Set and coordinating Artistic Dies. I wanted to try something different, so today I used the new Sweet Sorbet In Color which coordinates very nicely with Daffodil Delight against the Basic White Cardstock.

Card Details:
  • Basic Black Cardstock card base: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", folded in half
  • Basic White Cardstock: 5 1/4" x 4", embossed with Gingham Embossing Folder
  • The large flowers are stamped in Sweet Sorbet Ink with the smaller flowers stamped in Daffodil Delight Ink and the leaves in Old Olive Ink
  • Leaves were die-cut with Old Olive Cardstock and Artistic Dies
  • The "Happy Birthday" sentiment is stamped in Versamark Ink and embossed with White Embossing Powder on Basic Black Cardstock
