Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. What kind of plans do you all have for the weekend? I’ll be working today, and I believe by the time I get home from work; my husband will have gone to cut our tree and have it set up and ready to decorate. I feel like we’re a little late this year with getting the tree. All I’ll have to do is jump up into the attic to get everything out. I finally decorated my card studio and put up my small 4 1/2′ tree. We set up multiple trees in our house, the smaller trees are in the bedrooms or my studio, and the main tree is in the living room.

Today’s card is one that we made last Sunday at our quarterly meeting. this card was designed by my wonderful team member Tara Carpenter. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Creative Haven Stamp Set along with the Hobby Haven Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes Dies, 2 3/8″ Circle Punch and Stampin’ Up! Delicate Framing Stamp Set for my card today.

Adhere 2 panels of Hobby Haven DSP to the Basic Gray card base.

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Creative Haven stamp set in Basic Gray Ink. Using the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch, cut the sentiment out. Using the 2nd largest circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies, cut a panel of Pool Party. Adhere the sentiment to the die cut circle.

Adhere a piece of Linen Thread to the card front. Adhere the layered sentiment over the Linen Thread with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Dear Dots to the card front.

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Delicate Framing stamp set in Basic Gray Ink. Adhere a panel of Hobby Haven DSP to the bottom of the panel. Adhere one of the die cut images from the Hobby Haven DSP to the bottom of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Pool Party mat then to the inside of the Basic Gray card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish your card. Adhere a strip of the Hobby Haven DSP to the envelope front and panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and you’ll give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
