Hello and thank you for popping by. I may have been M.I.A. for a week but I am so excited to share another project with you – I hope that you like it!

For today’s card, I decided to use the Elegantly Said Bundle – a stamp set and punch bundle. I also used the Designer Series Paper from the Suite.

Here is the card that I made.

For this project, I started by cutting 1-3/4″ strips of Basic Black cardstock. I trimmed short, narrow wedges from each end of the cardstock so that I could easily slide the narrow end into the punch to cut just this shape. Then I used my Paper Trimmer to cut three of the pieces at 3″. I kept the fourth piece to use later for the sentiment.

I used Versamark, White Embossing Powder and my Heat Tool to stamp the floral image on each Basic Black piece. Once done, I used Stampin’ Blends to colour each floral image – Daffodil Delight, Fresh Freesia, Polished Pink and Soft Succulent. The Polished Pink was much brighter than the other two colours, so I used the Colour Lifter to tone back the pink a little.

Before I attached these elements, to the layer of Simply Elegant Designer Series Paper, I wrapped a length of Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon around the DSP. There are tiny slivers of the ribbon peeking from between the stamped elements. The sentiment was also stamped and heat embossed before being trimmed back to a much smaller size and attached to the card front. I tied a small bow using a length of Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon and attached it, as you can see, using a Mini Glue Dot. The final touch was to add three areas of 2021-2023 In Colour Jewels.

These are some of the products I used to make this card. What do you think?
