Happy May Day!!!
Today is the kick off of a month long 3 tiered special with Stampin' Up! The Share What You Love Suite is featured in 3 different bundles designed for beginners on up. You also have the opportunity to purchase the new In Color Stampin' Pads - with the new case!! I'll have some hostess code and freebie information at the end of the post, but for now let's get to today's cards:
The Share What You Love Designer Series Paper (DSP) is one of the products in the Gotta Have it All bundle and can you say gorgeous? I couldn't resist giving it a whirl in one of my favorite card sketches for DSP.
- Whisper White Thick Card Stock and Mint Macaron, Share What You Love DSP
- The Mint Macaron flower is cut from this paper too. Can you see the shimmer in my curled petals? It is applied with a dimensional.
- Leaflet and words are from the Love What You Do stamp set
- White layer measures 2" on top, 3.5" on the bottom
- The top part of the Mint Macaron layer measures 1.75" though a bit of it is under the white layer. These triangles were cut from a 3.75 strip of card stock. Once I got the pieces figured out I used some washi tape on my trimmer to easily replicate the pieces.
- I cut strips of DSP that were 1 5/8 -1.75" - it's not too fussy as the white layer goes over it.
- The Share What You Love Artisan Pearls are tiny little beauties in 5 colors that coordinate with the Share What You Love paper.
I used some retiring favorites in another Love What You Do card for today's Color Challenge on Splitcoaststampers:
- The flowers and message are from the Love What You Do set and are stamped in Black.
- Pink Pirouette is one of the colors that I'm particularly sad about being retired. I just ordered extra card stock yesterday.
- While I colored this with my Pink Pirouette Blends you could easily use markers with these little petals.
- The Black and White Bakers' Twine is also being discontinued.
- I made the little checked pattern across the bottom with 3/8" strips of a piece I stamped with the retiring Brushstroke background stamp.
The Grapefruit Grove In Color Stampin' Pad is included in all of the bundles, but you also have the opportunity to purchase any of the 2018 - 2020 In Colors during the month of May. You can also purchase the set of 5 at 10% savings.
