Thinking of You



This is such a cute, simple card - I love those sweet hearts on the Designer Series Paper, how about you??
 

 
 
We start our card with a Whisper White card base, then added a layer of Blushing Bride card stock, followed by another layer of Whisper White card stock.
 
Next, we stamped "thinking of you" in Mossy Meadow ink from the Party Pants Sale-a-Bration stamp set.  This stamp set is for so much more than just birthdays, as the name may imply..... There are sentiments that say hi, woo hoo, congrats, hugs and kisses and thinking of you.  It's a very versatile set, for sure!

Pedal Pusher... I'm Here for You


I love the soft, subtle colors on this card - they just make me think of spring!!

And, bike riding makes me think of summer - I can't wait for warmer weather here in Michigan....

For now, I'll just have to live vicariously through my stamps, ink and paper ('cuz winter is still here!)...
 

 
 
We start our fun card with a Sahara Sand card base.  This card base measures 5 1/2" x 7".  You still score it at 4 1/4", but the front of the card is missing 1 1/2"....  That's ok because we added a 1 1/2" strip of the It's My Party Designer Series Paper Stack to the inside of the card.  See how it peeks out perfectly from the back of the card!
 
 
 
 
It's My Party Designer Series Paper Stack  140552  $26.00
 
 

 
 
We added a Pool Party piece to the front of the card, along with a smaller Whisper White piece.
 
We stamped that fun tandem bike on our Whisper White piece and colored the bike in with our Sahara Sand and Pool Party Markers.
 
This bike can be found in the Pedal Pusher Sale-a-Bration Stamp Set (yours FREE with a $50 order thru March 31, which is just a few days away now!!).
 
 
 
 
Stampin Up Sale-A-Bration Pedal Pusher
Pedal Pusher Photopolymer Stamp Set  141312  (FREE with a $50 order!)

Subtles Stampin' Write Markers  131263  $29.00
 
 
 
 

 
 
Next, we stamped "i'm here for you..." (also from the Pedal Pusher Sale-a-Bration Stamp Set) and added a Whisper White 1/4" Cotton bow to this piece before we added it to the front of our card.
 
 
 
 
 
Whisper White 1/4" Cotton Ribbon  134567  $6.00
 
 

 


Finally, we added a couple of tiny hearts (using our Hearts Border Punch, Pool Party card stock and Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper).

Finally, we added a strip of the Metallics Glitter Tape - yet another item you can get for FREE during Sale-a-Bration with a $50 order thru March 31!!  The tape comes in 3 shades - Gold, Silver and White.  I love how the Silver Glitter Tape coordinates perfectly with the Silver Glimmer Paper.  And... the white tape can be colored any shade you like with a sponge dauber and your favorite ink color!
