Like I said I made *several* cards over the past couple of days! After making that Stamping Bella card I decided to keep the theme going and kept using this Chatterbox paper.
This card is actually 4.25x4.25" but this top panel makes it measure 4.25x5.5 (so it will still fit in the A2 envelopes). Michelle Wooderson came up with this fun layout and I LOVE it - I will be making a lot more of these!!
Here's a side view of it:
I used Papertrey's Green Thumb set and Stampin' Up! Classic inks (they really DO work well with clear stamps - I can almost always get nice, solid, crisp images), and added some bling with a few K&Co self-adhesive rhinestones (I picked up a pack at Michael's last time I was there - and now I wish I had bought more!!).
The sentiment is from the Butterfly Kisses set, and the ribbon is from Michaels.
This was a quick card - taking maybe 15 minutes?? I had the layout idea in my head, the colors were a snap as I was using the same patterned paper and color scheme, so it was just a matter of stamping it and putting it all together!
STAMPS: Green Thumb and Butterfly Kisses by Papertrey Ink. CS: Whisper White, Bashful Blue, Pumpkin Pie, Patterned Paper by Chatterbox. INK: Pumpkin Pie, Apricot Appeal, Ruby Red, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery, Palette Hybrid Noir. ACCESSORIES: K&Co Rhinestones, Ribbon.
This is another 4.25x4.25" card.
I stamped the large flower from the Doodle This set (in Stampin' Up!'s Spring Mini) onto the patterned paper twice then cut them out. I attached them to the card with this jumbo sei celery brad. I don't think you can tell from the picture - but I added dots of Fruit Punch stickles (from StarLitStudio) to the top flower's dots for a little glimmer.
The sentiment is from Papertrey's Faux Ribbon set (have I told y'all how much I LOVE the fact that all the sentiments fit inside most of the SU! punches??? Well I do!!), and I added a couple of rhinestones to the little flourishes.
STAMPS: Doodle This (Stampin' Up!), Faux Ribbon (Papertrey). CS: Whisper White, Brocade Blue, Certainly Celery, Patterned Paper by Chatterbox. INK: Palette Hybrid Noir, Brocade Blue. ACCESSORIES: Fruit Punch Stickles, sei Jumbo Brad, Celery Grosgrain, K&Co Rhinestones, SU! 1 1/4" and a 3/8" Circle Punches.
I followed roughly the same layout for this card as I did for the one above - just putting the sentiment in a different spot.
I used a button from my stash for the center of the Prima Flower - I sewed it to the flower with a bit of string and attached it to the card with a couple of mini glue dots.
The ribbon I got from Jacksonbelle, and the sentiment is from the Papertrey Paper Tray set.
I think I did this card in under 10 minutes - SO quick and easy!! It measures 4.25x4.25".
