Berries and Honey

I have to say I am not a big fan of the Golden Honey specialty paper that is a Sale-a-bration free item, but I have found uses for the sides of the paper that do not include the bees...

I chose to use a strip of the honeycomb pattern on this card that features the Witty-Cism stamp set and strawberry thank you sentiment.  

The background is Blueberry Bushel card stock embossed with the Parisian Flourish folder and I used my Stampin' Blends to color in the strawberry image.

Best Dressed Club House

On each of the two cards below, I have used designer series paper from two different collections - Best Dressed and Club House.  Since the layout is also quite similar, I thought I would share the two cards together.  

On the first one, I have used the Music from the Heart Stamp set on a die cut from the Stitched Shapes framelits collection and a piece of Crumb Cake ribbon.

On the second, I chose to use the So Sentimental stamp set and the new Label Me Lovely punch that fits well with this thank you sentiment.

The ink color I used was Mint Macaron, but I think if I made a similar card with these designer series paper collections together I would maybe use Night of Navy or Old Olive ink instead.

So Sentimental, Music From the Heart

Sweetly Stitched Happiness

There is a lot happening in this card - from the embossing folder to the die cut, to the designer series paper... I started with some Mint Macaron card stock that was embossed with the Button Button folder and then I added a piece of Lily Impressions (SAB 2020) designer series paper that was mounted on some Blackberry Bliss card stock to the embossed layer.

The sentiment is from So Sentimental stamp set and the die cut is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies (they can also be bundled).  I added a few Noble Peacock rhinestones and some Crumb Cake ribbon to complete the card.
