This is actually a gift certificate I’ve created for a customer. This is the front and I’m going to use my computer to print out the details for the back side of this one panel card. It will be placed in a larger cello bag and tied with a beautiful bow for presentation to the recipient!
The Floral Romance Suite is SO beautiful! The large floral stamp from the Wonderful Romance set was stamped in Versamark ink on Sahara Sand card stock and placed on a piece of 5-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ Whisper White card stock. This forms the base of the gift certificate.
This stamp set is retiring with the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog on June 3rd, so be sure to snatch this up if you like it!
The Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies create a frame out of Mossy Meadow card stock. Inside the frame of a piece of the gorgeous printed vellum from the Floral Romance Specialty Designer Series Paper. (This is retiring also so be sure to grab it while you can!)
For the left corner of the frame I stamped a 3/4″ piece of Whisper White card stock with letters from the Make a Difference alphabet stamp set. I stamped them with Petal Pin ink which coordinates perfectly with the printed vellum! And a sweet little bow was tied using the Petal Pink/Whisper White 5/8″ Variegated Ribbon. The flower on the top right corner is punched from another pretty vellum in the Specialty Designer Series Paper with the Four-Petal Flower Punch. On the bottom of the layered punched flowers is on flower punched from the Petal Pink card stock. This gives a firm base. A few leaves of Pear Pizazz card stock were punched with the Leaf Punch and tucked under the flower. A pretty Glitter Enamel Dot was used for the center of the flower.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Be sure to grab these retiring items while you can…they are gorgeous!

Today’s card is special because I made it for a dear friend 🙂 It’s not an original design, I copied (CASE’d – copy and share everything!) it from a card made by Stampin’ Up! for a million dollar achiever! I changed a few things, but it’s basically the same. I thought it was so pretty that I wanted to make it for my friend.
For this card I used the Share What You Love stamp set. I stamped the sentiment on a piece of Whisper White card stock in both Smoky Slate ink and Tuxedo Black Memento ink; then I also stamped some of the leaves in Memento ink. I splattered black ink on the same piece and roughed up the edges with my finger nails.
The Love What You Do stamp set is carrying over into the new 2019-2020 Annual Catalog, and I’m so happy. It’s a beautiful stamp set!
I stamped the flowers with the Memento ink and colored them in with Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends, then I fussy cut them and lifted them up on Stampin’ Dimensionals. I attached a bit of Silver Metallic Thread to the Stampin’ Dimensionals before attaching them to the paper.
The Flirty Flamingo 1/8″ ribbon was tied in a bow and attached to the flower stems and the card with Mini Glue Dots. Then this piece was layered and layered and layered! 🙂 First on Wood Textured Designer Series Paper trimmed with Whisper White card stock punched with the Decorative Ribbon Border Punch; then on Petal Pink card stock embossed with the Tufted Textured Impressions Embossing Folder; then on a piece of Calypso Coral card stock; and finally, on a Whisper White card stock base. Oh, I forgot about the Colored Doily cut in half and slipped in between the layers 🙂
Even though the Love What You Do stamp set it not retiring, there are LOTS of items that are retiring! Lots of stamp sets, embossing folders, dies, and most of all the 2017-2019 In Colors! Click the boxes below to see EVERYTHING THAT’S RETIRING!!

Floral Essence is one of my FAVORITE stamp sets in the new 2019-2020 Annual Catalog! This is a stamp set that I received at the On Stage conference in Charlotte, North Carolina, and I couldn’t wait to come home and play!
When I was in Charlotte I received the new catalog. I looked at some of the sample cards for this stamp set in the catalog and created my card using a few of their ideas!
One of the stamps in the set is an outline stamp. I used this on the top panel and then lightly sponged the center of each flower. Then I stamped the leaf stamp around the flowers and colored in the leaves with the Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends.
I stamped the solid flower in Gorgeous Grape ink and colored in the flower center with the Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend. The leaves were punched out of Granny Apple Green card stock using the Leaf Punch, and tucked in around the flower and glued down with the Tombow Multipurpose Glue.
You will be able to order this beautiful stamp set – and coordinating dies – on June 4th when the new Annual Catalog goes live! Start your Wish List now, and there are lots of fabulous stamp sets you will want!
