Stampin’ Up! Tranquil Thoughts
Happy Saturday everyone! Hope you have a fun, restful weekend!
The design of the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge is my inspiration for today’s card.
And Addicted to Stamps and More — Make Your Mark.
The stamp set featured today is the new Tranquil Thoughts Stamp Set from the January – June 2021 Mini Catalog. I am also using Paper Blooms DSP, a Sale-A-Bration free item with a $50 order.
I started with a Blushing Bride card stock base, adding a panel of the Paper Blooms DSP embossed using Rococo Rose card stock.
A short panel of Garden Green card stock is embossed using the Tin Tile 3-D Embossing Folder and adhered to the Rococo Rose flower panel. Flowers from the Tranquil Thoughts Stamp Set are stamped in Rococo Rose ink on Basic White card stock and cropped using one of the dies from the Tranquil Dies Collection.
Another flower is stamped on the Basic White art panel using Rococo Rose and Garden Green ink. The cropped flowers are popped on the art piece under the stamped flower using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The Basic White sentiment panel trimmed with a strip of the Paper Blooms DSP is left blank to write a note.
The envelope flap gets a panel of the Paper Blooms DSP and your card project is finished.

I received my paper shares yesterday. A lifesaver they are so to speak. I had also seen Jaimie Babarczy’s card and thought “Oh that would make a cute valentine for my great-granddaughter” — but I don’t have it– then Mary’s paper shares arrived and the rest is history as you will see. I even had to order the bundle for future use. Now on to the card.
I started with a Bermuda Bay card stock base, layering two different panels of the Snail Mail DSP over it using Multipurpose Liquid Glue after all the elements were added to the panels. A length of Double Stitched Red Ribbon is wrapped around the middle covering the joining spot of the two panels. Over the red ribbon, another length of ribbon with white dashes is wrapped, both ribbons are adhered with Glue Dots.
I cropped two circles using the Stitched Shapes Dies and the Layering Circle Dies, one from Basic White card stock that is embossed using the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder and another from the Snail Mail DSP. A Bermuda Bay card stock heart is cropped using one of the heart dies from the Stitched Be Mine Dies. This heart is layered over the red Snail Mail DSP circle.
Two of the snails are fussy cut from a panel of the Snail Mail DSP and popped over the Bermuda Bay heart using Stampin’ Dimensionals. One of the tiny envelopes with a heart is also fussy cut and popped between the two snails. Using the die with the many hearts from the Stitched Be Mine Dies I cropped some Real Red hearts to pop on the corner of the top panel. 
Three of the Resin Hearts from the Snail Mail Suite Collection are randomly placed around the card front. A greeting from the Meant To Be Stamp Set is stamped in Real Red ink on a scrap of Basic White card stock and cropped with one of the Stitched So Sweetly Dies.
The sentiment panel has a sentiment from the Meant To Be Stamp Set stamped in Real Red ink on the Basic White card stock panel. Hearts from the Meant To Be Stamp Set are stamped in the corners using Bermuda Bay ink.
The envelope flap gets a panel of the Snail Mail DSP and your card project is finished.
The card today features the Detailed Hearts Dies and Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set. Products used and card cuts are at the end of this post.
The envelope flap gets a panel of the Flower & Field DSP on it also. 
Stampin’ Up! First Frost Stamp Set is being retired, so I decided to use it one more time before it is gone.
