Stampin’ Up! Pansy Dies Hello You Card
Happy 4th of July weekend. Do you have fun plans — picnic with lemonade, potato salad, fried chicken, strawberry cake, and watermelon. Growing up this was our typical 4th menu. The watermelon went in the creek to get cold while we ate lunch, later in the afternoon you got the watermelon which was always such a treat as a kid. Of course no ice for the lemonade, so when I order lemonade at Chick-Fil-A — no ice–now days, Chick-Fil-A can provide the chicken and lemonade, Publix the potato salad, and watermelon.
The card I am sharing today is created using the Pansy Dies and a greeting from the Stampin’ Up! Shaded Summer Stamp Set.
My inspiration is the sketch from the Fusion Card Challenge.
My card base is Soft Succulent card stock with a panel of the Evening Evergreen adhered to the base to become the mat for the Soft Succulent check panel. Also, cut another panel from a different DSP to create the banner across the top of the check pieces.
Crop pansy petals and leaves from a panel of Thick Basic White card stock. Color using a blending brush and Pale Papya ink and Evening Evergreen ink. Use Calypso Coral to outline the edges of the petals. Color the center of the pansy using a Black Stampin’ Blends Marker.
Another pansy is cropped and colored for the inside panel on which the note will be written. It can be a birthday note for happy birthday, thinking of you, anniversary, sympathy, or whatever kind of note you want.
A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of the DSP applied to the envelope flap.

Today’s card features an old favorite from the Annual Catalog. Silhouette Scenes Stamp Set is my choice for an anniversary card for my grandson and his wife. I am also using the Ornate Floral Embossing Folder, the Stitched So Sweetly Dies and the Stitched Rectangle Dies.
The card I am sharing today features the Stampin’ Up! Path of Petals for the inside sentiment, Stampin’ Up! Meant To Be Stamp Set and Stitched Be Mine Dies.
Start with a Stampin’ Up! Crumb Cake card stock card base, add a layer of the same color card stock that is embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle 3-D Embossing Folder.
A narrow strip of Stampin’ Up! Pool Party card stock is embossed using the same embossing folder as above then matted using Stampin’ Up! Soft Suede card stock. This strip is adhered to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
In finishing, a panel from the Stampin’ Up! 6″ x 6″ Subtles Designer Series Paper is adhered to the envelope flap using Liquid Glue.
I have used Stampin’ Up! Blueberry Bushel card stock as the card base. I wanted to emboss the front of the card with the Stampin’ Up! Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder so I cut a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Blueberry Bushel card stock the size of the card front and embossed it. This makes it so much easier and neater to emboss in this fashion. This panel is not adhered to the card front until the entire card front is finished, again doing this way makes it easier for me.
I winged it and cut the panel of Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals DSP this design by cutting a portion of the panel out using the Stampin’ Up! Paper Trimmer and scissors. This is no particular design for any reason other than I liked it cut that way to reveal the embossed panel underneath. The scalloped trim is created from a one-inch strip from another panel of the Pressed Petals DSP and an old pair of scalloped edge craft scissors that are probably from the 80’s or maybe 1990. They are clunky and have big blue and yellow plastic handles — must have been for a child.
I stamped 4 daisies using the Stampin’ Up! Daisy Lane Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Daffodil Delight ink. I stacked these together to create my daisy. I stamped the leaf 3 times on a scrap of Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow card stock using Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow ink, I then fussy cut and stack these together also adhering them using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. A small bow was created using Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Baker’s Twine.
The greeting is from the Stampin’ Up! A Little Lace. I stamped it in Stampin’ Up! Blueberry Bushel ink and then cut the greeting apart to use the portion I wanted. The greeting is popped on the card front using Stampin’ Up! Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals that was cut in two pieces to fit the tiny words. I left the inside panel blank so a note can be written. The jewels are from the Stampin’ Up! Nobel Peacock Rhinestones.
In finishing, I gave a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope flap a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals Designer Series Paper.
It’s called the Christmas Time is Here Suite and it’s pretty amazing! just look at that DSP, isn’t it gorgeous and here’s hoping the die fits the rose on the DSP! The dies do fit the roses on one of the panels of the DSP. The dies fit perfectly. This suite was used by several demonstrators October 5 during World Card Making Day and the cards were gorgeous. You should see if you can find them on Pinterest, they are so beautiful.
