I have what I consider a very Clean card to share today. To me, Clean means it doesn’t have much going on. I kept looking at the card wondering what it needed or what I should add. I didn’t want to leave it like this. But then I decided anything I added would not work. So here is a bit of a different look for me.
Can you believe there is No Designer Series Paper? I was shocked myself! LOL!!! I have been intending to use this die for some time. I saw another card with the flowers created as I have done. I apologize that I cannot remember who created it!! But ever since then I have wanted to do this.
Creating the added color in the flower is very simple. I cut the design from the top layer in the Bermuda Bay Card Stock. I pushed out and saved all of the petals. I then did the same with a piece of So Saffron Card Stock. I adhered the top layer to the card base. ( I do love the look of Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay!) All I did to adhere the petals was put just a dot of Multipurpose Glue in the slot and lay the petal inside. I had my paper piercer ready in case I needed to slide the petal around at all.
The sentiment really hit home with me. I have been trying to grow my Stampin’ Up! Team and have friends who tell me that I can do it. One especially is helping me come out of my “norm” and be more creative in my plans, so this sentiment was spoke to me. I layered the Story Label and Timeless Label punches.
The only accessories that I added for this card was the pearls at the center of each flower. I felt like it needed more but just couldn’t think of anything that would Help, as opposed to being Too Much. So here you have it. A Clean card from me.
Thank you for stopping in today. I know it is a Holiday and some of you will be working anyway. I had one of those jobs that didn’t take off for weekends and Holidays. I hope you all have a good day though.

Yesterday’s card was “Hey There” and today is “Hello There”. I did not purposely make these matching cards. And they do not look anything alike, so there is that difference.
This card is a 4 X 4 card that is intended as either a Birthday Card or a Gift Card. It would work for either. I like doing square cards in that it makes cutting the paper super easy. Plus it gives a different look to a common layout.
All of the stamps are from the I Say Hello stamp set. I stamped the Hello There box in Pretty Peacock and then added the bow on top using Rococo Rose. To get the candles to sit properly, I made a mask of the bow out of copy paper. The thinner paper keeps the stamp from leaving an open area between the mask and your stamping.
Thank you again for visiting today. I hope you have a great weekend and will return on Monday. Even though it is a Holiday, I plan on having a project to share. Being retired is like constant holidays and weekends! 🙂

Fall is on my mind! Not that the weather here in Georgia feels like fall, Oh My!!! But, I have another Fall card to share with you today. This one uses , as I am prone to do, the back side of a Designer Series Paper that you would not say is Fall.
I think this Linen Look DSP is gorgeous. Even with the photo, it seems you could reach out and touch it. Surprisingly it is from the Pressed Petals DSP. Several of the pages have a linen look in the background. This sheet is all linen look.
I paired the gorgeous DSP with the Harvest Hellos Bundle. It has the Apple Builder Punch and the apple and/ or pumpkin in the stamp set. The pumpkins behind are stamped with Pumpkin Pie ink and colored with Pumpkin Pie stampin’ Blends. The front pumpkin is stamped in Cajun Craze ink on Pumpkin Pie card stock.
The cute little “Hey There” tag is from the stamp set as well. It says “Hey There, Pumpkin”. I did not want to use all of that. To omit what I did not want, I inked the Hey There with a Black Stampin’ Write Marker. (It is the only marker you can buy individually). I stamped onto a scrap of Whisper White and punched it out using the Classic Label Punch. I fed the end back into the punch to make the banner end.
Thank you for stopping in today! I hope you will come again tomorrow before the long Holiday weekend. Remember that Saturday is the last day to take advantage of this Join Promotion for Stampin’ Up! I really would love to have you on my team. Becoming a Demonstrator was one of the best choices I ever made!!

I am sharing more of Stampin’ Up!s beautiful Designer Series Paper today. And I have added some gorgeous dies that you will really want to use for Fall. Fall is right around the corner, and then holidays, Oh My!!! But let’s start with Fall.
And here is the side view of the Double Z Fold.
I love how this card stands so perfectly. I made one of these cards almost a year ago. You can view that card HERE. It was a Fall card as well.
I used the Come to Gather Designer Series Paper for this card. I paired it with Merry Merlot Card Stock, but then added the Thick Whisper White to brighten it a bit. The white leaves are cut from the Seasonal Layers Dies. The sentiment I chose , which is from the Waterfront set, fit perfectly in the one. The solid Cajun Craze leaves are from the Gathered Leaves Dies in the upcoming Holiday catalog. They are a die and embossed at the same time type die. I LOVE them!!
The only extras I added were the Calypso Coral Satin Ribbon and the one Holiday Rhinestone on the bottom white leaf. I felt it needed a touch of bling.
I hope you liked today’s project. And I hope you will return tomorrow. I have the measurements listed just below here and the supplies are at the bottom of the post.
Measurements: NOTE: the measurements for the linked card are a tad different.
Base 4 1/4 X 11 folded in half
Base of Z in Whisper White 4 X 10 1/4, scored at 2 1/2 & 5

I hope you love the Woven Heirlooms suite of products as much as I do. Partly because I think it is a fabulous suite. And partly because I have another card from it to share with you today. This will be the last of my favorite piece of the DSP, because I am out of it. It is on my next order list though!!
As I have said before, this is an awesome set but additionally it has made me fall in love with the Seaside Spray InColor. It is a beautiful blue with just a hint of a purple, at least in my opinion. Having used it so much with the DSP, it has become a fast favorite. To top that off, Stampin’ Up! added a Seaside Spray Metallic Ribbon to the Holiday Catalog. WooHoo!!! As you can see from the photo, it has a touch of shimmer to it.
Since I love the designer series paper so much, and the added beauty of the Seaside Spray Metallic Ribbon, I had to have an equally gorgeous sentiment. I love this sentiment, which is from the Woven Heirlooms stamp set . I believe it is great for a birthday or wedding, and maybe other occasions. And I love the fonts used in the sentiment as well. To showcase the sentiment I looked through my dies and found the Stitched Labels Die. The sentiment fit perfectly and the die really stands out on the card. Yay!!
Thank you so much for visiting today. Please come back tomorrow for another new project. Also, please remember that the Stampin’ Up! Join Promotion is coming to an end on Saturday. I truly love being a demonstrator, I love Stampin’ Up! products, and most of all I love all of the friendships I have made because of it. I would be happy to answer any questions you have if you are thinking about becoming a demonstrator. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made! And I would love to have you join my team.

I am playing along with the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #400 today. I love the sketch they have chosen. I believe it is a great way to showcase designer series paper, which is one of my favorite products!
And here is the sketch I followed.
I used the Wrapped In Plaid 6 X 6 DSP as my background papers. I chose two pieces that had Shaded Spruce, Night of Navy and Cherry Cobbler. The top piece is Cherry Cobbler and Whisper White. I layered all of the pieces with Whisper White except the sentiment, which is layered on Night of Navy. The stocking is colored with Stampin’ Blends and is hanging from the curl of the B in Believe.
This was a really great sketch to use. I hope you will add it to your file of sketches.
My Measurements:
Base card is 5 1/2 X 8 1/2 folded in half
5 3/8 X 4 1/8 Large Whisper White layer
