Manhattan Flower

REMINDER: It isn’t too late to order the March Card Kit. Payment is due by March 24 (extended since I’ll be out of town). CLICK HERE for more information and to see the Kit samples! This is an excellent masculine Kit, so don’t miss out!

This was one of the cards my Stamp Club attendees made last weekend. Everyone LOVED the new Manhattan Flower Textured Impressions Embossing folder that is now available! It makes such an elegant impression, I hope the picture does it justice! Together Forever is stamped from that stamp set in Basic Black on Very Vanilla and I wrapped Kraft Taffeta ribbon around the Very Vanilla layer. The Vanilla Hodgepodge Hardware is the perfect added touch to this card! With the Embossing folder, you really don’t need anything else!

Inside, I used the matching Fifth Avenue Floral stamp set in Sahara Sand and Basic Black and added the welcome that is in the Sale-A-Bration stamp set, Congratulations! This would make a perfect Wedding or Anniversary card! In fact, I’m going to change the greeting inside, and change out the front to Brushed Gold cardstock for my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary card next month!

Hope you have a wonderful day! The weather here is supposed to be GORGEOUS today, but then drop down 20 degrees tomorrow… I’m SO ready for Spring and I see signs of buds on the trees and the crocuses are popping up their heads. There was even a FAT Robin sitting in our tree yesterday. Yeah!

Set: Fifth Avenue Floral, Together Forever, Congratulations Sale-A-Bration
C/S: Very Vanilla, Basic Black
Ink: Sahara Sand, Basic Black
Other: Vanilla Hodgepodge Hardware, Designer Label Punch, Manhattan Flower impressions folder, Kraft Taffeta ribbon

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 23 years and just had my 22nd Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Lewis Center, Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Westerville, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!
