Our Creatively Simple theme this month is “Party Time”! This is our last one…next week we have a new theme!

ARTISTIC LEAVES
I love the artistic look of blue leaves…here I’ve stamped on variegated designer paper to get the look I wanted!

- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Lost Lagoon cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock is embossed with the Mini Corrugated Embossing Folder (sadly, now discontinued!) and added to the front.
- The two large leaves were stamped with Lost Lagoon Ink on Thoughtful Journey Designer Paper and hand-cut, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The smaller leaf was stamped three times with Basic Beige Ink on Basic Beige cardstock and hand-cut, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Some Linen Thread was tied in a large loop bow and added to the leaf with a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional.
- The greeting was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Lost Lagoon cardstock and cut with the Textured Notes Die, the end was cut at an angle and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

This designer paper so SO pretty! I’m glad they have kept it in the lineup for now! Check out Debbie’s new Creatively Simple card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
