Well…my first favorite SAB product is probably the Golden Honey Designer Paper! However, since that is on “non-orderable” status, I decided to feature the Thoughtful Blooms and Small Bloom Punch which is my second favorite for the first release of SAB (I don’t have any of the second release items yet…lol!) I originally made this card for my SU Trip Achievers Swap a few months ago!
THOUGHTFUL BLOOMS & SMALL BLOOMS PUNCH

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Flirty Flamingo cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded to form base card.
- The 3-3/4 x 5 layer of Smoky Slate is embossed with the Coastal Weave Embossing Folder.
- A 1 x 5 strip of From My Heart Specialty Designer Paper (see it isn’t JUST for Valentine’s Day!) was added to a 1/4 x 5 strip of Flirty Flamingo Cardstock, then added on the front.
- Whisper White was cut with the Stitched Shapes Oval and stamped with the greeting from Thoughtful Blooms on the right side in Memento Black Ink. The vine was stamped with Granny Apple Green Ink on the left side, then the sprinkles with Flirty Flamingo Ink.
- The flower in Thoughtful Blooms was stamped with Poppy Parade on Flirty Flamingo cardstock three times and punched with the Small Bloom Punch. They were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- In the centers of the flowers are three Nobel Peacock Rhinestones.
