Gorgeously Made Great Friend with Nested Essentials Banners

Greetings!

The first few times I page through the 2023-24 Annual Catalog I would admire the Masterfully Made Suite Collection and tell myself I didn't need it.  After giving it closer inspection, especially the vibrant colors of the Masterfully Made Designer Series Papers (DSP), I decided to purchase the papers and the Gorgeously Made Bundle.  The torn edge look on so made of the prints in the DSP pack is such a unique look and gives the papers so much dimension!  


Since the print on this particular sheet is all little bits of torn pieces layered, it seemed only fitting to tear the bottom edge and leave a nice bit of white space for the greeting.  My first attempt at stamping the greeting directly onto the bottom of the card base was just a little bit crooked😒. I had to redo it and decided I might as well tear the top and bottom edges of the stamped piece so it appears intentional.  😄
This is what I love about stamping!  There are no mistakes...simply an opportunity for a new design feature to emerge.

It's been a long time since I've pulled out my Pumpkin Pie stamp pad and cardstock, but this paper gave me the perfect opportunity to use it along with a splash of Berry Burst.  It's such a gorgeous combination, and I know I'll be using it again.  

If you're wondering where those beautiful orange pearls came from, wonder no more.  They are the Basic Iridescent Pearls colored with the Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blends to give them this gorgeous color and the pearls are sized perfectly to embellish the berries on the stamped image.
