Saturday Blog Hop – Casing Connie Babbert

 

For the past several weeks, we have been Casing the Design Team for our Saturday Blog Hops!  This week our last featured Design Team Member is ME!  We are to find an “old” card on my blog that we like and use the layout or colors with a new set from the July-December Mini Catalog!  This should be fun!  We will show both the “old” card that inspired us, and our new version!  Here’s my card that I chose from my past blog posts!

APPLE HARVEST

Here is how I redid mine using Apple Harvest!  Stampin’ Up! just released the coordinating dies, too!  Who doesn’t love gingham?  And I love eating yellow Golden Delicious apples, too!

 

 

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Garden Green cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
• Two 1-1/4 x 5-1/2 yellow Gingham Cottage Designer Paper strips were added down the right side.
• A 3-1/4 x 4-1/2 piece of Basic Black cardstock was added at an angle on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• A Basic White Deckle Rectangle was cut with the Dies, then stamped with the apple cluster from Apple Harvest Stamp set in Memento Black Ink.  It was colored with Daffodil Delight, Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green, Mossy Meadow, and Bronze Stampin’ Blends.
• Two flowers from Apple Harvest were stamped with Memento Black Ink on Daffodil Delight cardstock and cut, then added to the front.
• The greeting from Apple Harvest was stamped with Memento Black Ink on 1/2 x 3-1/4 Daffodil Delight c/s and added to the front with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• Two white Seasonal Sequins were added to the center of the flowers.
