Always Thinking of You Pleased as Punch card

Today’s card features the Pleased as Punch Designer Series Paper (153558) available through March 31, 2020 or while supplies last as part of the Coordination Product Release.  This paper coordinates with several of our punches, but can be used without.  I used an umbrella from the paper which I fussy cut as I don’t have that particular punch.  My card base is thick whisper white and I stamped all around the edges with a splatter stamp from the Painted Poppies stamp set (151599).  This stamp set can be purchased alone or as part of a bundle (151605) with the Painted Labels Dies.  By purchasing as a bundle you save 10% and you earn a free Sale-a-Bration item through March 31.  The sentiment comes from Very Versailles (149275). I used Thoughtful Blooms and the small bloom punch for the flowers.  These are both free Sale-a-Bration items through March 31, 2020.  The focal image is mounted on a piece of pool party card stock cut to 3 3/4” x 5”. Ink colors used are Blushing Bride, Petal Pink, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, Granny Apple Green, Balmy Blue, and Pool Party.  The leaves in the umbrella flower basket are cut from Granny Apple Green use Coordination Product Release Nature’s Thoughts Dies (153586 )which coordinate with the Positive Thoughts Stamp set(151490). Both are must haves in my opinion.

My second card uses two pieces of the Pleased as Punch Designer Series Paper.  The umbrella is again cut from the paper and the base layer is a piece of the Designer Series Paper.  This is where I took my color inspiration from.  The sentiment comes from the Beautiful Moments stamp set (151677) and is cut using a die from Ornate Frames dies (150664) which carried over from the 2019 holiday catalog.

Thoughtful Blooms Stone Thank You card

Hello, I’m back after a long absence.  Life has been crazy busy and something had to give.  Things are better and it’s time to get back to blogging.  Hopefully, I can keep the momentum going.  Today’s card is one I made using several Sale-a-Bration products which are available through the end of March 2020 with a qualifying order.  For every $50 increment you spend, you earn a free Sale-a-Bration item of your choice.  This card uses the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set, small bloom punch and stone embossing folder which is part of the Power of Hope Bundle.  The small bloom punch will be available for purchase in the upcoming 2020-2021 annual catalog.  In addition, I used the bee stamp from the January Paper Pumpkin (if you don’t have this set, you could use a bee from the Honey Bee stamp set (151527) which can be purchased separately, or as part of a bundle which includes coordinating dies (153792).  Colors used on this card are coastal cabana, early espresso, pineapple punch, so saffron and calypso coral.  The sentiment is from Label Me Bold (151631).  This set was inspired by Million Dollar Sales Achiever Jasmin Schulz.  Focal images are on a diecut from the Nature’s Thought dies (153586) which are part of the Coordination Product release available through March 31.
