Greetings!
I'm back from the Stampin' Up! annual convention and filled with loads of inspiration! I also have the new annual catalog in hand and am LOVING the fabulous changes they've made to their product presentation. There is something for every level of crafter! One of the great additions are sketches and details of various fun folds and techniques. I know...you'll have to wait a couple weeks yet to see the new catalog yourself, however, I chose one of the fun folds for today's card. Fun folds elevate the card from just a basic fold to include a little something more.
Before all the new items come into season, this is the perfect time to focus on some favorites from the current offerings. The Poetic Expressions Designer Series Papers (DSP) has quickly become a favorite, partially because of the two very different color collections within the pack. It really offers a wide variety of options, making it a great value! For this card I opted for the combination of Bubble Bath and Wild Wheat. The prints in this DSP pack make it so easy to bring these two colors together, and with the fun angled, reverse trifold fun-fold, it's a great way to see three different prints in one card.
Isn't it lovely! And how fun to have the smaller card open the opposite way, hence the reverse trifold part.
Another current favorite is the Dainty Delight stamp set, which has the perfect little stamp image to coordinate with the print used on the front triangle panel. The Wild Wheat ink stamped a bit dark for the Celebrate You so I had to find an alternative. The beauty of Stampin' Up! colors is there's always another one that will work well, and Crumb Cake came to the rescue.
This Dainty Delight stamp set and coordinating dies are only around for a limited time now, so make sure to add it in your cart and get it before it's gone. Check out the Last Chance list for all the details of what is saying goodbye. You can get the stamp set and dies, both at amazing discounts, beginning April 9th. They go quickly so this is not the time for procrastination. 😆
