Perfectly Pears Thank You card

Perfectly Pears Bundle

Sharing what you love is one of the best ways to lift and inspire others. I started stamping 6 years ago, and I can honestly say that I think about stamping and creating cards every single day. Today I am sharing a card that I created for the Crafty Collaborations Sketch Challenge Insta Hop.

Perfectly Pears Bundle

One of the things that I love about Stamping Up! products is that they coordinate all of the components perfectly. Cards like this one are so easy to layer up with all the beautiful patterned papers in the Painterly Pears Designer Series Paper. All the product details are at the end of this blog post.

Snowflake Kisses - Coastal Cabana

Snowflake Kisses Bundle - Available starting Sept. 3rd

This weeks monochromatic Insta Hop color is Coastal Cabana. I realize that this would not be a traditional winter card color, but snowflakes is what came to mind when I started planning..... So I chose the Snowflake Kisses bundle that is one of the new Online Exclusives (Available Sept. 3rd). Item # 166023

Snowflake Kisses Bundle - Available starting Sept. 3rd

If I make this card again, I might be tempted to use the blending brush on the back ground die, and keep the snowflakes in the foreground white. This is the first time for me to use this bundle and I totally recommend it! The stamp set is all sentiments, and the dies have several different snowflakes to choose from.

More Than Autumn - Real Red

More Than Autumn Bundle + Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder

This weeks Monochromatic Insta Hop color is Real Red!..... One of my absolute favorite colors ever! I didn't have any Real Red DSP on hand, so I decided to play with some texture through embossing.

This weeks color challenge

More Than Autumn Bundle + Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder

I love using my Stampin' Blends, even for monochromatic applications. These cups were super simple to color. I cut out a second set of bands for the cups so that they would look a bit more dimensional.

I've been itching to get started on holiday cards and this one was the perfect first card!
