Dragonfly Garden New Year Card

Dragonfly Garden New Year

My creation features Stampin’ Up!’s Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set, found in the Annual Catalog on page 23. I think this sentiment sums up my feelings perfectly: May Good Things Grow All Year Long. In addition, I threw in a sneak peek of the Daffodil Afternoon 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper. (It’s a free product choice during Stampin’ Up!’s SaleABration sale that starts Tuesday, January 4.) The pieces of Designer Series Paper measure 5 inches x 1 inch. I placed them equal distance apart on a Flirty Flamingo piece measuring 5 1/4 x 4 inches.

Dragonfly Garden New Year

The above shows the inside of the card. The sentiment comes from the A Wish for Everything stamp set in the Annual Catalog. I stamped the flower image in Flirty Flamingo (stamped off twice) and added a scrap piece of the Designer Series Paper. 

Thanks for stopping by today. Be sure to leave a comment with the hashtag #stampitcontest. You could win a free card kit.

Congratulations to last month’s winner: Jennifer Arent.

Evergreen Elegance #simplestamping

Evergreen Elegance #simplestamping

Each month, Stampin’ Up! issues a #simplestamping challenge to its demonstrators worldwide. We go back to the basics and focus on creating a card with just rubber stamps, ink, and paper. This month, we add an extra element: ribbon.

Although I need a few more Christmas cards, I also use a lot of thank you cards this time of year. I’ve received a number of heartfelt gifts, and I want the givers to understand how much I appreciate them thinking of me. 

Evergreen Elegance #simplestamping

I turned to #simplestamping to help me create s stack of cards I can have handy and get in the mail right away. This card uses:

This layout features three strips of Designer Series Paper each measuring 5 1/4 inches by 1 4/ inches. I spaced them equal distance apart on the Soft Succulent card base. Imagine creating a host of different backgrounds with Stampin’ Up!’s huge array of patterned papers.

The white stamped piece measures 2 inches by 3 1/2 inches, and the Evening Evergreen layer measures 2 1/4 inches by 3 1/2 inches. I topped it off with a bow created with the Soft Succulent 3/8 inch Open Weave Ribbon.

As I’ve said before, I’m a clean and simple stamper and this basic layout and design really appeals to me. It will be easy to create a stack in a short time. 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you’ve enjoyed my #simplestamping project.
