Today I'm up on the Stamp Simply Blog where I'm sharing this sweet little Thinking of You card. When I use any of the stamps from Stamp Simply, I know I'll be able to create a lovely card with the perfect sentiment. In fact, the card I'm sharing today uses just one stamp set from Stamp Simply for the floral image and the sentiment. There are so many great stamp sets at Stamp Simply that work this way, as well as being great when combined with other Stamp Simply products.
The patterned papers I used are some very old October Afternoon papers from my stash. However, you will find lots of great paper choices at Stamp Simply such as the Echo Park Farmer's Market 6x6 Paper Pad which would be a great choice for recreating this card. I did some machine stitching on the edges of my paper and then ripped/tattered the edges.
I added a length of 1.5" Cluny Crochet Natural Lace and some May Arts Jute that I wrapped around my card. The gorgeous flowers were stamped using the Pretty Poppies Stamp Set and were cut using the coordinating Pretty Poppies Steel Dies. I also cut a few paper strips using the Fishtail Banner Dies that I used for my sentiment and for added layers.
The beautiful stamps from Stamp Simply make it easy to create amazing cards. This week, the stamp set I used (Pretty Poppies Stamp Set) as well as the Delightful Dahlias Stamp Set and dies are on SALE. This is a great time to grab them for your own collection before this sale ends. Thanks so much for visiting me here today.
I'm sharing my card here:
The Paper Funday Challenges - Challenge #89 - Anything Goes: Optional Summer Splash - I did use bright Summer colors on my tag with butterflies. And as always, I've got LOTS of fabulous paper layers.
Blessings,
