This week’s blog hop theme is Glitz and Glam! Stampin’ Up! has SO many wonderful products that sparkle and shine…this should be an easy one for everyone! I chose to feature the Simply Elegant Designer Paper on my card, along with the Penned Flowers Dies! Love the copper, gold and silver metallics in this DSP!
HAND-PENNED PETALS BUNDLE

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Basic Black, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Cinnamon Cider cardstock was added to the front.
- A 2-1/4 x 5-1/4 piece of Simply Elegant DSP was added to the left side and a 3/4 x 5-1/4 piece of the opposite black & white print was cut with the scallop edge die in the Penned Flowers Dies.
- The Tailored Made Tag was cut from Basic Black with the Die, then tied some Simply Elegant Silver Trim in a bow (SOOOO happy they have gold and silver trim back in the catalog!) It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The individual flowers from Penned Flowers dies were cut from Copper Foil and the leaves from Silver Foil. They were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Some Elegant Gems were added to the center of the flowers.
- The greeting from Hand-Penned Petals was stamped with Memento Black Ink on a 3/4 x 2-1/2 piece of Cinnamon Cider cardstock and cut the end at an angle. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
