Elegant Blossom Celebrate

Hi there! Happy Wednesday! The week always feels a little better once we get Monday out of the way and are halfway through it, wouldn’t you agree?! I have been constantly sidetracked as of late. I actually have been spending a little time each week crafting which is great! Unfortunately I have been really bad about posting! But I do have a few cards made so hopefully that will encourage me to do a little writing to accompany it! I have been taking care of the Parents, spending time with friends and prepping for my trip in December. All good things!

The card I have for you today uses a bunch of dies, the only stamped part is the greeting. I cut out some Hammermill 100lb Card Stock with the Simon Says Stamp Elegant Blossom Branch Dies and used my Blending Brush and the Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Perfect Craft Tacky Mat to hold them in place while I added Simon Says Stamp Field, Lilac and Zest Ink to the die cuts. I do find that the Hammermill Card Stock really is pretty great for ink blending. The background is a pice of Recollections Purple Card Stock embossed with the Simon Says Stamp Thread Plaid Embossing Folder. I added it to a card base of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. The Simon Says Stamp Nested Domed Arched Frames Dies cuts out a piece of Recollections Cream Card Stock and another piece of Recollections Purple Card Stock. I added the purple frame to the cream with Bearly Arts Glue and the added the panel to the card with Simon Says Stamp Big Momma Foam Tape. The flower is added with Glue and Foam Tape. My greeting is from the Simon Says Stamp Airy Greetings Stamp Set and is embossed in Simon Says Stamp Cream Fine Detail Embossing Powder onto an another piece of purple card stock. I used the coordinating Simon Says Stamp Airy Greetings Dies to cut it out and added with more foam tape to the card. For a little bling I added Simon Says Stamp Summer Blooms Embellishment Mix Sequins.

I don’t really use purple a lot but I do like the color and I love that embossing folder!

I hope that you enjoyed today’s card! Thank you, as always, for stopping by and spending a little of your day with me! I hope that the rest of your day is as awesome as you are! 🙂
