Wishing you the Best

First I have to say, sorry for the quality of the photos. These were photos that I took to share with my team on thoughts and ideas. I am out of town as I write this which is probably a few days before you see this post which is why I am just using a quick photo.

We are winding down Sale-A-Bration 2020 – and boy am I sad about that. Sale-A- Bration (SAB) is really one of my favorite times of the Stampin’ Up! year. This card was featured in our March classes and we highlighted the Tags In Bloom set and So Very Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper from from SAB second release brochure. Don’t forget that SAB ends on March 31st and products are limited!

During class I offered two color options – Soft Sea Foam or Purple Posey. I’m not normally a green person – but I have to tell you I’ve been making lots of extra cards in Soft Sea Foam. The photo is awful and really does not give the color justice.

Here are a few tips to create this card:

• The Whisper White is embossed with the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder, it gives just the perfect amount of texture.
• On a scrap of Whisper White, I stamped the flower shape in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and fussy cut it out. It’s a super simple cut!
• On another scrap of Whisper White, I stamped the stitched outline shape in either Soft Sea Foam or Highland Heather (remember Purple Posy ink is not available). I stamped the Wishing you the Best sentiment on the center with Memento Ink and punched it out wit the Label Me Fancy Punch.
• I colored the flowers in with Purple Posy and Soft Sea Foam Dark and Light Stampin’ Blends.
• I used Snail Adhesive to adhere the So Very Vellum strip – but use just a bit – and just behind the flower pieces.
• I then used Stampin’ Dimensionals on both the flower and sentient pieces.

Just a few things to remember:
