Reminder that we are nearing the end of Sale-A-Bration!! And the additional FREE product choices Stampin’ Up! added for this month are some amazing products!
I have occasionally started my cards using scraps. Today is sort of one of those type cards. I found strips from the Splendid Autumn DSP on my desk. Scraps of DSP make great options for quick cards. This is one of those.
STAMPS
The only stamping on the front of this sweet card is from the Loveliest Tree stamp set. I love a simple birthday sentiment. And yes I know they are in a lot of different stamp sets. But the different sizes and fonts always intrigue me. Plus I sell my retired sets so lose some of those sentiments that way. This mix of small printed Happy with the gorgeous scripted Birthday just spoke to me.
PAPERS
These DSP strips are actually the star of the card. They are from the Splendid Autumn Designer Series Paper pack. These were buried on the back of my desk form a previous project of who knows when! They measure 1 1/2 X 4 3/4 and 1 3/8 X 4 1/2. Since daffodils are blooming in my yard, I saw these daisies as another sign of Spring. (Although we are scheduled for another round of really cold this week)
The card base is Fresh Freesia and the layer is Lemon Lolly. Both of these colors are pulled from the daisy piece of DSP. And there are many options for other color combinations from just that small strip of paper.
EXTRAS
The first of my Extras today is the Fern 3D Embossing Folder. This is used on the Lemon Lolly and really stands out. I love the detail it has. The next Extra is the punched ends of the sentiment strip. It is made using the Happy Labels Pick A Punch. * This is a current option for the Sale-A-Bration Free product choices!! Next is the Bakers Twine bow behind the sentiment. Finally is the purple Shimmer Gems that are a favorite of mine.
