Stampin’ Up! Sending Sunshine
Friday and the week is ending! Are you looking forward to the weekend? I know most people are getting ready for the Super Bowl on Sunday. Not our house we gave up Pro Football several years ago.
Today’s card is the remnants of a Paper Pumpkin, I added bits and pieces to it to create the card.
My inspiration for today’s challenge comes from the Inspire, Create Challenge. The theme for this challenge is cute critters. I believe my cute little koala meets the requirements for cute.
The card base is a leftover from the January Paper Pumpkin as is the Blackberry Bliss card stock mat for the Dandy Garden DSP heart. Card cuts are at the bottom of this post.
The cute little koala holding the heart in his cute little paws is popped on the corner of the Dandy Garden DSP heart. The cute raccoon or squirrel from the Special Someone Stamp Set would make a perfect little critter to pop on the card holding a heart you have cropped from the Meant To Be Stamp Set. The little critter in the Dino Days Stamp Set would make a cute, cute little fellow to hold a heart for this card. Pampered Pets Stamp Set also has cute critters.
The greeting is from the Lots of Heart Stamp Set and is stamped in Calypso Coral ink. Three Champagne Basic Jewels are popped on the card front.
The sentiment is from the Sending Sunshine Stamp Set and the Meant To Be Stamp Set. They are stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink on the Basic White card stock panel that has a heart from the Many Hearts Dies cropped in the center of the card. A piece of Calypso Coral card stock is placed behind the heart to show through the pin dots.
The medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of Dandy Garden DSP applied to the envelope flap.

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 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.

A length of the gold ribbon from the Christmas Rose Suite is wrapped around the panel and tied in a loose bow! 
The two hearts are cropped from Stampin’ Up! Cherry Cobbler card stock using the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Be Mine Dies. They are adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
Stampin’ Up! Basic Rhinestone Jewels are colored using a Stampin’ Up! Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends Marker . The greeting is from Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Moments Stamp Set and is stamped in Stampin’ Up! Cherry Cobbler ink in the lower corner of the Whisper White panel.
The sentiment panel has no sentiment for now, but has a big heart cropped from the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Be Mine Dies that will outline the sentiment once one is chosen. Two small hearts from the Stampin’ Up! Meant To Be Stamp Set are stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink below the big heart.
