SIMPLY SPARKLING
It is peach season, and I just had the BEST peaches from our local farmer’s market! Oh my gosh! SO sweet and juicy! I only bought three, so I’m headed back to get more! Yummy! That inspired my card using the cute little peach from Stampin’ Up!’s Simply Sparkling Bundle!
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Peach Pie cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The Peach Pie 2-24-26 In Color DSP was cut with the Perennial Postage Die, then cut off the bottom 1/3 and reversed the print, and adhered to the 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White.
- Some green Natural Tones Linen Thread was wrapped around the Basic White layer and tied in a bow on the front to hide the seam.
- Some additional Basic White cardstock was cut with the smaller Perennial Postage Die and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The peach was stamped three times with Memento Black Ink on Basic White cardstock and colored with Peach Pie, Light Lemon Lolly and Lemon Lime Twist Stampin’ Blends. They were cut with the Simply Sparkling Die and added to the rectangle with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The greeting from Simply Sparkling was stamped with Memento Black Ink on a 1/2 x 2-1/2 piece of Peach Pie cardstock and the end cut at an angle. It was tucked around the peaches with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of peach In Color Shimmer Gems were added to the background.
