May the 4th be with you! Just throwing that out there for some of my friends. You know who you are!!! 😉
Hi BFF’s! Doesn’t it feel like this year is just flying by? It’s almost summertime! I know in some areas it’s still snowing. If that is you, I am very sorry. What a winter it has been for some places around the world, but I can’t complain much here in San Diego, California.
Welcome to another blog hop with the Global Stamping Friends where demonstrators from all around the world are showcasing awesome Stampin’ Up! products! This month we are working with a sketch. I love sketch challenges.
Here is the sketch we are working with and here is what I came up with using some new, some retiring and some current products. I really stuck to the sketch with the circle and stripes and accents. I added some dimension with the Sparkle embossing folder.
I fell in love with this designer series paper called Painted With Love that is only available while supplies last. The gold accents really caught my eye. So I decided to stamp the circle and the sentiment using Versamark and heat embossing in Gold. This circle came from a brand new not-yet-released stamp set called Swirly Frames. It coordinates with the Circle and Square Framelits. It will be available in the new catalog on June 1st so you’re getting a sneak peek. 🙂
I used a current bundle that will be carrying over into the new catalog. It’s called Colorful Seasons. The sentiment and the flowers are from this bundle. The colors I used were Melon Mambo, Blushing Bride and Rich Razzleberry.
I added a thin strip of the designer series paper inside the card also to finish it off. 🙂
I hope you liked my card. Next up is Tricia. I know you will enjoy what she has come up with.
Thanks for stopping by. Below is a list of everything I used today on this card except for the Swirly Frames. If you’d like to shop with me, click HERE and use the Hostess Code BNQEJNBK when you check out and I will send you a surprise in the mail.
