Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week. Is it warming up any by you? I believe it’s supposed to hi 30 today and tomorrow then drop back to the 20’s again.

Today’s card has a simple design using products from the annual catalog and the Online Exclusives. The bundle I used has all wedding sentiments, but I made it into a birthday card. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Lifetime of Love Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Friendly Foliage Stamp Set, Stylish Shapes Dies and Lovely Stripes 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

My colors are from Sunday Stamps Love is in The Air Challenge #378.

Emboss a panel of Crumb Cake using the Lovely Stripes EF. Adhere the embossed panel to a Flirty Flamingo mat. Adhere the layered panel to a Crumb Cake card base

Cut a panel of Basic White using the largest square from the Stylish Shapes Dies. Using the Small Blending Brush, add Flirty Flamingo Ink. Stamp the sentiment from the Friendly Foliage stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink to the top of the panel. Adhere the die cut panel to a Flirty Flamingo mat. Adhere the layered panel to the card front.

On the panel of Basic White, stamp the flower image from Lifetime of Love stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Color the image using Old Olive, Pretty in Pink and Strawberry Slush Stampin’ Blends Markers. Using the Lifetime of Love Dies, cutout the flower image and 3 of the leaf dies from a panel of Vellum. Adhere the leaves to the die cut panel with Glue Dots. Adhere the flower image over the leaves with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few 2024-2026 In-Color Flat Pearls to the card front.

Stamp the sentiment from Friendly Foliage stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink to a panel of Basic White. Stamp the flower image from the Lifetime of Love stamp set in the corners of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. Color the images using Old Olive, Pretty in Pink and Strawberry Slush Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Flirty Flamingo mat then to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish your card. Stamp the flower image from the Lifetime of Love stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and flap. Color the images with Old Olive, Pretty in Pink and Strawberry Slush Stampin’ Blends Markers.

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

A week before the class I will send you the complete PDF of the cards so you can cut all your cardstock gather your supplies, so you are ready to go.  We will NOT be cutting cardstock or doing any die cutting live since all the cards will be different.  Everyone’s cards will be unique since you will pick which color cardstock and ink you want to use along with the Designer Series Paper, Ribbon & Embellishments for each card.
