Welcome to Create with Connie and Mary’s Creatively Simple Challenge! Each month Mary and I will pick a theme…this month it is “GREETINGS”, and we each create a simple card every Tuesday using that theme!
This card was made entirely from pieces leftover from different projects I started. I call them “starts”. So, all I had to do with finish the background and base card! SO quick!
SENDING SMILES
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Tahitian Tide cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Sweet Sorbet cardstock was added on top.
- The 3-7/8 x 5-1/8 piece of Basic White was embossed with the Cascading Ruffles Embossing Folder and added to the front.
- Sending was cut from Tahitian Tide cardstock with the Sending Die and adhered on front towards the top.
- Comfort & Strength from Sending Smiles Stamp Set was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Tahitian Tide cardstock and cut with the smallest label Sending Die. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The flower stem from Sending Smiles was stamped with Parakeet Party Ink and the flower with Sweet Sorbet Ink, center with Daffodil Delight Ink on scrap Basic White, then cut with the Sending Dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The In Color Sweet Sorbet Baker’s Twine was tied around the stem in a bow.
- The little flower was cut from Sweet Sorbet cardstock with the Die and added for the “i” with a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional.
