Harvest Congratulations

This card contains lots of layers but is quite simple and easy to put together - especially if you are using scraps and leftover die cuts!


The base of the card is Cinnamon Cider card stock and I have added an embossed layer using the Star-Crossed folder. Next, I used two different patterns from the Harvest Meadow designer series paper collection and finally a couple die cuts and ribbon. The sentiment is from the Happy and Heartfelt stamp set. 


Supplies:
Happy and Heartfelt
Soft Suede ink
Cinnamon Cider, Smoky Slate, Soft Suede, Basic White card stock
Harvest Meadow dsp
Harvest dies
Star Crossed folder
Stitched Rectangles dies

All the images and die cuts that go together in the What's Cookin' bundle are so fun to play with - I know I will use them in the future when creating scrapbook pages for my daughter and love using them on cards as well.


There are a couple of designer series paper patterns in the background - one is from the Sweet Symmetry collection and the other is from You're A Peach.

Wonderful Birthday

Usually when I play around with the Elegantly Said stamp set, I focus on the larger swirling images that to me look similar to Norwegian Rosemaling, but for this card I focused on the flower image and used the others in the background.


I used Night of Navy for all my stamped images and used the Layering Circles dies for my focal layers and the Tasteful Labels dies for my sentiment layer. There are a few retired rhinestones used for accents as well.

For this card, I paired a couple differently colored patterns of designer series paper from the Expressions in Ink collection with the Color and Contour stamp set.

The glimmer paper is from last year's Sale-a-bration and the sentiment is punched out using the Label me Lovely punch.

Frayed Sympathy

This card contains lots of layers of stamped images, but not very many layers of card stock. I chose to decorate the card base with several different two step images from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set that was a Sale-a-bration item in 2021.


On top of the stamped images, I added some 5/8" White Frayed ribbon and a sentiment layer using Stampin' Dimensionals that was die cut using the Stitched Nested Labels.

Delicate Dahlias
Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, Mango Medley, Pale Papaya,
