This month we will be using song titles for our inspiration. This week’s blog hop theme is “Nights in White Satin” sung by The Moody Blues! We will be making cards that are predominately white! I admit I’m slightly obsessed with the Pierced Blooms Dies…I just love the stitching on them! So, I used this set once again!
IN BLOOM STAMPS & PIERCED BLOOMS DIES
Stampin’ Details:
- The base 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White was cut with the Stitched Whimsy Dies.
- The greeting from In Bloom stamp set was stamped with Memento Black Ink.
- A variety of Pierced Blooms flowers and leaves were cut from Basic White cardstock, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Pearl embellishments were added to the centers and background.
Pretty simple directions, but all the layers of flowers really make a gorgeous card! That stitching just does ALL the work! OK, next up on our blog hop is our Create with Connie and Mary website, then on to creative Mary Brown, or head backwards to see Brenda Nelson’s fabulous project and see what everyone did with this challenge!

One of my favorite songs by the Moody Blues! I’ve seen them in concert more than a dozen times and this song was always on their play list. The concert version is much better than the studio version, too. Lovely card that fits in with the theme of Nights in White Satin.
How fun! I don’t remember ever seeing them in person, but it was the theme song for our prom the year I graduated! lol!
