Wishing you much happiness

You just never know when you need a pretty and simplistic card.

 I created this one so quickly,  using the So Sentimental image as the main focus.  It could be a birthday, anniversary or wedding card with that kind of sentiment!  I can see myself making multiple copies of this one in different shades of Subtles colour collection to have on hand.  

Supplies for this card:

Balmy Blue and Whisper White cardstock

Balmy Blue ink

Stitched So sweetly dies

So Sentimental Cling Stamp set

Greenery Embossing Folders

Basic Pearls

Dimensional dots and adhesive

Peony Garden Designer Series Paper

 

Simply stamped Forever Fern card set

 I have wanted to use this stamp set for a simply stamped card since I joined. It arrived the other day!!! 

So easy and quick, I used the Peony Designer Series Papers as a mat for the stamped images. To coordinate, I use Granite Gray and Petal Pink inks. The images layer so well and are very detailed. Of course there is the first that go with it that I have used on a little project but I liked this idea of fast and easy, which meant 2 sheets of cardstock became a set of four 4x4 cards in less than half an hour. 

Now to wrap them in a cello bag and gift them 😉

It’s cold and windy here today but we are off to get fish and chips in the park with the family. Enjoy your weekend.

Fab Friday Challenge #197

I loved the simple sketch challenge this week over at Fab Friday. I’ve used DSP and an old sentiment to stamp with Gray Granite. I think the simplicity of the card allows for the details to show up well in the papers.

It’s been a busy day of mulberry jam making and gardening here. I hope you’ve found time today to do something you enjoy.
