This card was created using Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet stamp set from the Annual Catalog.  There are still many great stamps in there that we need to use because April is fast approaching and many will be gone.  I used the Softly Sophisticated 3D Embossing Folder and  Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper.

 

I am entering Try A Sketch On Tuesday Challenge for this card.

My card base is Gorgeous Grape cardstock  with a panel of Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper matted on a panel of Crumb Cake. A different pattern of the Designer Series Paper is cut in three strips and matted first on a Basic White cardstock mat, then a Gorgeous Grape cardstock mat.  They are arranged across the card front.

A strip of Real Red cardstock is stamped with a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Perennial Postage stamp set, the piece is flagged and adhered across the card front.  Hearts are stamped in Real Red and Gorgeous Grape inks on Basic White cardstock.  They are punched using the Country Bouquet Punch.  A Basic White circle is die cut from Basic White cardstock using a die from Stylish Shape Dies.  The hearts are arranged on the circle.  The circle is popped over the Real Red strip using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Three 2023-2024 In Color Dots were colored using a Real Red Stampin’ Blends.  They look more Cherry Cobbler, guess that’s from coloring over the already colored dot.

A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Perennial Postage stamp set in Gorgeous Grape and Real Red inks.  Two hearts are adhered on the bottom of the panel that are  stamped in the same colored.

Three hearts  are stamped on the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you took the time to linger and look at my other blog post and cards and that 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. Feel free to CAS(E) any card. Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me. Have a blessed day!
