Welcome to Create with Connie and Mary’s Creatively Simple Challenge!  Each month Mary and I will pick a theme…we are kicking off the new year with the theme of “LOVE”.  Time to get ready for Valentine’s Day, right?  We’ll create a simple card every Tuesday in January using that theme!

DAINTY DELIGHT

Stampin’ Details:

• Base is 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
• The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Fresh Freesia cardstock was embossed with the Cane Weave Embossing Folder and added to the front.
• A 3/4 x 4 piece of Dainty Flowers DSP was added across the front.
• The Mini Pocket Envelope was cut with the die from the Dainty Flowers DSP, adhered together, then added to the front.  This pocket is a perfect size for a gift card!
• I made a small notecard by stamping the flower image with Old Olive Ink on a 1-3/4 x 3-1/4 piece of Basic White that is layered on a 2 x 3-1/2 piece of Rich Razzleberry cardstock.  It was colored with Fresh Freesia, Old Olive, and Starry Sky Stampin’ Blends, then tucked in the pocket.
• The greeting from Dainty Delight stamp set was stamped on Old Olive cardstock with Starry Sky Ink, then cut with the scallop label from the Mini Pocket Envelope Dies.
• The daisy flower was cut with the Dainty Delight Dies from Rich Razzleberry cardstock and the center from Starry Sky cardstock, then added to the front of the pocket.
• A trio of gold Pastel Adhesive Backed Sequins were added to the background.

This was SUPER easy to make as the dies did most of the work!  Make sure to check out Mary’s Creatively Simple card over on Create with Connie and Mary!
