Lasting Joy - Birthday card

Lasting Joy - detail view

Lasting Joy - Inner view

When I saw Lasting Joy in the 2023-2024 Stampin' Up!® Annual Catalog, I knew I had to have it in my first order! I LOVE the sentiments!! I love the mixed fonts and I love how I can mix and match the messages to customize my cards. I was even really attracted to the simple floral images in this stamp set. Enough so..... that I didn't mind knowing that I was going to have to fussy cut.....

I made this card for a friends upcoming birthday. I am so in love with making cards for my family and friends. It brings me pleasure to make and then to give away.

Sending Smiles - Share it Sunday Blog Hop

Sending Smiles Note Card

Whimsy Die inner message liner view

Sending Smiles and Whimsy Die

Today I am participating in the Crafty Collaborations Share it Sunday Blog Hop.

Last week I announced that I would spend the next month using all the new and returning colors that Stampin' Up!® announced in the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog. On this card it was a subtle use of Lemon Lime Twist - a returning color. I wanted to use the Lemon Lime Twist Ribbon in the Ribbon Duo Combo Pack, so I decided to use the Whimsy Die to frame my flower, color it in with the Lemon Lime Twist Blends and add the bow on the frame. I chose my flower colors from the same Brights color collection: Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and Granny Apple Green.

I enjoyed making this simple card and hope you are inspired to give it a try too.

Cutting instructions:

Card base: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4". This is a side fold card.
Card front: 3 3/4" x 5" - Use 2nd largest Whimsy die on this pc.
Inner message liner: 3 3/4" x 5" - Use 2nd largest Whimsy die on this pc.
Scrap to stamp and die cut sentiment

Assembly instructions:

On card front use Lemon Lime Twist Stampin' Blends to color in "ribbon" of the Whimsy die.
Use Granny Apple Green to stamp stem of flower
Use Melon Mambo to stamp flower
Use Daffodil Delight to stamp flower center
Use Tuxedo Black Memento ink to stamp sentiment. Die cut. Adhere using mini dimensionals. Add bow to end of sentiment and overlapping at Whimsy frame.
Scatter Iridescent pearls
On inner message liner use Lemon Lime Twist Stampin' Blends to color in "ribbon" of the Whimsy die. Adhere to inner card base.
