Coffee With Friends landscape easel card

 As soon as I saw the Coffee and Friends stamp set in the new annual catalog, I knew I had to add it to my collection.  It arrived last Thursday and I couldn't wait to ink it up!  I am so happy to have Lost Lagoon back in the color refresh!  Here I paired it with Pool Party and I love how they look together.  I love how this card came together!  It turned out better than I imagined when I started.  The scalloped contour die cut really looks good with the new Nested Essentials dies.  Be sure to check these out in the 2023-2024 Stampin' Up! Annual catalog on pages 166 & 165 respectively.  Today’s card is an easel card and they are really simple to put together.  Be sure to watch the video replay HERE:
