So Sentimental

Who’s ready for another Paper Craft Crew Challenge?!? Check out this fun card sketch –

There are a lot of fun elements in this layout and I stayed true to them in my creation.

I took my inspiration from the fun Paper Blooms DSP in the 2020 Sale-a-Bration brochure. I love the large blooms and fun color pallet. I added a strip of Rococo Rose print DSP. The sentiment is from the So Sentimental set.

A fun layout to send get well wishes to someone. Head on over to the Paper Craft Crew blog to see more inspiration using this layout and join in the fun!

Starting off a crazy week for me. It is dress rehearsal/ performance week for the Hutch Middle School musical that I am co-directing: James and the Giant Peach, Jr. My eyes are on next Monday, when it is all over and I crash. Hoping to get more time in my studio next week.

In the mean time here is a card I created to send to another Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator. Last November at Stampin’ Up! On Stage in Las Vegas, one round of the Prize Patrol recipients were given two stamp sets witht he stipulation that they must give one of the sets away to another Demonstrator. One very sweet demo chose to share her prize with me, and gave me the beautiful Breathtaking Bouquet background stamp. I said I would make her a card with it in return. Here is the card I made:

The card base is Sahara Sand with a layer of vellum that is cut with one of the scalloped rectangles in the Stitched So Sweetly die set and embossed with the Subtle emboss folder. The sentiment, from So Sentimental, is heat embossed in white on Gray Granite card stock. The flowers and leaves are from the Cherry Blossom dies in Blushing Bride, Rococo Rose and Pear Pizzazz. The Polka Dot ribbon is a great addition to accent the softness of the card. This sentiment is so versatile and would work for numerous occasions.

Hello friends! I have had a nice stretch in my craft studio and boy has it felt good. Sometimes the ideas are really flowing and other times I just don’t know what to make. When that happens, I like to check out some challenge blogs for inspiration. This week I found a fun sketch at TGIF Challenges and decided to have a go with it.

This sketch is a great way to use up some DSP scraps. I really liked the layout, so I stayed pretty true to it. I just extended the horizontal piece across the entire card.

I love the softness of the Parisian Blossoms Specialty Designer Series Paper – Pool Party, Petal Pink with a touch of Champagne Foil. This sentiment from So Sentimental works for a variety of occasions. Of course I had to add some Champagne Rhinestones! It is hard to see in the photo, but the white layer is embossed with the Brick and Mortar 3D embossing folder. Here is a closer look:

Go check out the fun at TGIF Challenges and play along! The TGIF design team is ridiculously talented. You are sure to be inspired.
