Layers of Beauty Anniversary Card

Today's card was created for the..

Global Design Project Sketch Challenge #442.




For my "Anniversary" card, I used Stampin' Up! Layers of Beauty Bundle, Countryside Corners Dies, Unbounded Beauty DSP and Layers of Beauty Decorative Masks.

I have to say that I absolutely LOVE the new In Colors!  They are such pretty colors and it's so fun to use them ALL on one project... like I did here.

You will be able to purchase the new In Color products on May 1st!

I began with Petunia Pop for my card base followed by Basic White, which was stamped and color added using Blending Brushes and Layers of Beauty Decorative Masks.

I didn't use all of the Decorative Masks as I wanted a softer look and I really love how it turned out.

White Ribbon from the Petal Pink & White Diagonal Trim Combo Pack was wrapped around the layers of Basic White and Unbounded Beauty DSP and tied in a bow on the left.

Linen Thread was doubled up and wrapped around the knot of the ribbon and tied in a bow.


Inside my card is more shading with Blending Brushes and Decorative Masks on Basic White.



The flowers were stamped with Memento ink and colored with all five of the In Colors Stampin' Blends Markers and die cut.

One of the smaller flowers was adhered with a Mini Stampin' Dimensional.

The sentiment was stamped with Petunia Pop ink and die cut using Countryside Corners Dies and adhered on the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

Embellishments are Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels.

Difficult to see, but Wink of Stella was splattered on the card front by flicking the brush tip on the cap.

On the envelope flap I stamped the flower image with Summer Splash ink.



Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today.

Book Bind Sympathy Card

It's time again for the Spring 2024 Creativate Retreat!


By registering for the Early Bird registration, I also received four fun fold tutorials.  Being an Early Bird has its perks!  Even though the early bird registration has passed, you can still register for the Retreat.

Registration is now open right up until the retreat on April 19-20, 2024!  Sign up now and become a member of the private FB group to share your projects and see what others create.  The demonstrators you can register with are Sharon Armstrong, Brandy Cox, Jackie Bolhuis & Connie Stewart.  Choose a demonstrator and join in on all the fun!  Learn tips and techniques as well as fun cards and projects.  You will have access to all the tutorials so you can create as much as you want!  The live videos are so fun, giving you a chance to comment, laugh along and learn how to create fun projects!  Plus, you also have a chance to win prizes and who doesn't love that!!

Pre-Retreat Challenges are posted each Monday for a month, until the retreat goes live.  These pre-retreat challenges are a great way to get your creativity jump-started.

The Pre-Retreat Challenge #2 is to create a BOOK BIND CARD.

Here's what I created using Stampin' Up! Heartfelt Hexagon Stamp Set, Lovely & Sweet Bundle & Inked Botanicals DSP.

I began with a card base using Petal Pink and Inked Botanicals DSP for the front of the card.

The image was stamped with Memento ink and colored with Lost Lagoon, Ivory & Petal Pink Stampin' Blends Markers, and die cut with Lovely & Sweet Dies.

Linen Thread was looped into a double bow and adhered behind the image and adhered on the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals.

The sentiment is from Heartfelt Hexagon Stamp Set, stamped with Memento ink.  Color was added around the edges with a Blending Brush and Lost Lagoon ink and adhered on the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

The embellishments are Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels.
Inside my card is Basic White.  The image was stamped with Memento ink in the lower corner and colored with the same as above Stampin' Blends Markers.

DSP was adhered on the envelope flap and trimmed.
