Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed
It is TGIF for all of us! There used to be a restaurant here called that when I still worked at the school system, but it has ended up being called just Friday’s. Teachers gathered there after school on Friday.
My card today features Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed Designer Series Paper(DSP) and the Stampin’ Up! Very Versatile Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Verdant Garden Stamp Set.
The House That Stamps Built — What If? — Wednesday Sketch Challenge is my challenge for the day.
Start with a card base of Stampin’ Up! Purple Posy card stock and add a background panel of Stampin’ Up! Best Dressed Designer Series Paper. To this background panel, add on the left side, a narrow panel which is the reverse side of the background panel and matted on a Stampin’ Up! Petal Pink card stock panel.
Add another narrow matted panel on the right side which is also from the Best Dressed DSP. Over these two narrow panels adds two mats for the art piece that have been cropped from Petal Pink and Purple Posy card stock using the Stampin’ Up! Stitched So Sweetly Dies. Adhere these together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, then pop over the two narrow panels. To the top of the Purple Posy panel add the three hearts that have been cropped using the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Be Mine Dies. Two of the hearts are embossed using the Subtle Embossing Folder just as the Stitched So Sweet panel has been.
The greet “LOVE” is from the Stampin’ Up! Verdant Garden Stamp Set and is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Pretty Peacock ink on a scrap of Petal Pink card stock and then fussy cut around the word. Several sequins from Stampin’ Up! Basic Adhesive-Backed Sequins are randomly placed on the card front. A tiny Whisper White Twine bow is added to the top heart.
The sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Forever Lovely Stamp Set is stamped in Pretty Peacock ink on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock and adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. A little collage of flowers are fussy cut from the Best Dressed DSP and adhered to the panel.
The Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets a panel of DSP from the Best Dressed DSP.
Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day. My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself. Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me. Have a blessed day!

My creation today features Stampin’ Up! Tropical Oasis Designer Series Paper. I truly believe it is my favorite, I believe I could make a card each day using it. I have used almost two packs, going to have to order more.
The stamp set being featured in today’s card creation is Stampin’ Up! Floral Essence, (this is available in the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog).
My card challenges for today are 
The first thing was to cut a panel of Stampin’ Up! Crumb Cake card stock for the card base. Next was to crop the tree from Crumb Cake card stock using the Stampin’ Up! Majestic Mountain Dies. I then smushed the tree on the Delicata Copper Stamp pad to color the tree. To speed up drying of the ink, I used the heat tool.
Next, using a Stampin’ Up! Layering Oval Die, I cut an oval from Stampin’ Up! Basic Black Cardstock, popping it on the Stampin’ Up! Crumb Cake card stock panel embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder. The tree was then glued to the oval using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
The “Time To Celebrate” greeting is from the Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Birthday Stamp Set, stamped in Memento Black Ink on a scrap of Crumb Cake card stock and cut with the smallest Stitched Rectangles Die. It is popped on with Glue Dots.
Five little red hearts are stamped in Stampin’ Up! Real Red ink on a Crumb Cake card stock scrap and fussy cut and added to the card front. The little hearts give it a touch of color and could be used for a masculine valentine card by changing the greeting.
The sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Timeless Tropical Stamp Set is stamped in Delicata Copper Ink on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Very Vanilla card stock. The tree is adhered in the lower corner.
A panel from Stampin’ Up! 6” x 6” Neutral Designer Series Paper is adhered to the flap of a Stampin’ Up! Very Vanilla envelope.
