Happiness Abounds

Creatively Simple 39 – Happiness Abounds

By | 2 Comments

Welcome to Create with Connie and Mary’s Creatively Simple Challenge!  Each month Mary and I will pick a theme…this month it is “FLOWERS”, and we each create a simple card every Tuesday using that theme!

Sometimes I’m just in the mood to color!  I wanted this flower to be a bright, intense red color, so I used the new Sweet Sorbet In Color!

HAPPINESS ABOUNDS

 

Stampin’ Details:

  • The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Sweet Sorbet cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
  • A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White was stamped with the greeting in Sweet Sorbet Ink, then added to the front.
  • A 1-1/4 x 5-1/4 strip of Perfectly Penciled Designer Paper was added down the right side.
  • The flower and leaves from Happiness Abounds were stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White cardstock, then colored with the Sweet Sorbet, Cherry Cobbler, Parakeet Party, and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends.  They were cut with the Bloomin’ Happiness Dies and added to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

 

That’s it!  VERY simple card to pull together…the coloring took the longest to do!  Check out what Mary did with this week’s Creatively Simple Flower Theme over on Create with Connie and Mary!

IM230 – Happiness Abounds

Happy Monday! It’s time for our Create with Connie and Mary Inspiration Monday challenge!  I love the colors on this tablescape!

HAPPINESS ABOUNDS

I just felt that this flower in Happiness Abounds would give me the feel of the flower on the napkin ring!  And the two circles using the Stylish Shaped Dies under it represent the plate layers!

Stampin’ Details:

    • The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Coastal Cabana cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
    • Three 1″ strips of Flowering Fields Designer Paper were placed down the center of a 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock.  I alternated the top to bottom to give me a more variegated look!
    • The largest Stylish Shapes stitched circle was cut from Basic White and adhered to the front.
    • The next size down was cut from Coastal Cabana cardstock and adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
    • The flower and leaves were stamped with Granny Apple Green Ink on Basic White and the flower colored with Soft Seafoam and Parakeet Party Stampin’ Blends.  The center was dotted with Light Old Olive Blends.  The leaves were colored with Old Olive Blends.  All were cut with the Bloomin’ Happiness Dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
    • Best Wishes was stamped with Memento Black Ink on 1/2 x 2-1/2 Basic White cardstock and ends cut at an angle.  It was popped up on front at an angle.

I love that the stripes resemble the placements, too!  OK…check out what Mary did with the Inspiration Monday Challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary!

By | 1 Comment

 

Our Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip Achievers get together each month for a Blog Hop! I’m blessed with great customers and downline who helped me achieve this year’s Incentive Trip Reward and I am happy to have joined the top 1% of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators who have or will earn the Baltic Cruise Incentive Trip for next year!  Our blog hop theme this month is ANYTHING CURRENT!

HAPPINESS ABOUNDS

Next weekend we will honor Memorial Day in the United States, so I thought I’d show off some Red, White and Blue patriotic colors using the Happiness Abounds Bundle.

Stampin’ Details:

  • The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
  • On the 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock, a 1-1/2 x 4 piece of Sweet Sorbet was added to the top and a 1-1/2 x 4 piece of Starry Sky was added to the bottom.  (These new In Colors make perfect patriotic colors!)
  • The background was embossed with the new Cascading Ruffles Embossing Folder (I love the movement this gives the background!)
  • The smaller flowers were stamped with Starry Sky Ink on Starry Sky cardstock.  The larger flower stamped with Starry Sky on Sweet Sorbet cardstock and just the center on Daffodil Delight cardstock.  The leaves were stamped with Parakeet Party Ink on Parakeet Pary cardstock.  All were cut with the Blooming Happiness Dies and assembled on front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • The greeting was stamped with Starry Sky on 1/2 x 3-1/2 piece of Basic White cardstock, then cut at an angle and added to the front.

I love how patriotic this looks!  If you need any supplies to recreate this project, I’ll be happy to place the order for you in the United States or click here to go to my Online Store!  This month, please use my current Host code for orders under $150. $150 or more, keep the host rewards for yourself!
