Chevron Hello

With very little time to create these days when we are in full spring farming mode, I am still sharing some cards made using retired products since I have quite a few that you have not seen yet. Hopefully soon I will get some down time, but I am not holding my breath just yet.

I used some Enjoy the Journey designer series paper in the background along with a Starburst punch circle, then added a few pieces of Coastal Cabana card stock and my sentiment layer along with some retired embellishments.

The hello comes from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set and is stamped with Polished Pink ink.

Supplies:

Irresistible Blooms

Polished Pink ink

Coastal Cabana, Smoky Slate, Basic White card stock

Basic Hello

On this card, I used the same pattern of designer series paper in different directions and on different layers. The designer series paper is now retired, but you could duplicate this type of card with any pattern.

I also added a punch made with the Lasting Label punch and embossed with the Basics 3d folder along with some Vellum basics specialty paper behind the sentiment.

The sentiment comes from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set the die cut is made with the retired Stitched Nested Labels.

Supplies:

Irresistible Blooms

Fresh Freesia, Pool Party, Basic White card stock

Whether you’re just starting out with embossing or you’re already an embossing pro, you need these embossing folders!

It’s easy to make a great impression! Just place flat cardstock in this embossing folder, run it through a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, and out comes cardstock with a bold textured design.

Dainty Thank You

Here are a few more thank you cards I have put together, mostly using scraps and extra die cuts and embossed card stock that I had from other projects. These all use the Dainty Flowers designer series paper from Sale-a-bration and the Around the Bend dies.

The sentiments are from the Irresistible Blooms and Charming Sentiments stamp sets and the die cuts were made using the Picture This and Something Fancy dies.

The embossed layers were made with one of the Basics 3D embossing folders.

For accents, I added some retired Self-Adhesive Sequins.

March Stamp Club Projects

For this month's projects, I chose to use use some of the online exclusive products along with a Sale-a-bration designer series paper and a bundle in the mini catalog.

The first card is inspired by this one created by Lisa Curcio using several flaps and layers. It uses several patterns of the Hello Irresistible designer series paper along with the Queen Bee bundle.

The next card made using two online exclusive products - the Irresistible Blooms stamp set and one of the bundled 3D embossing folders.

And the layout focuses on the Sale-a-bration designer series paper called Dainty Flowers. I chose coordinating card stock colors for the base and photo mats.
