Another Sweet & Simple Card with Stampin'Up! Boughs & Blossoms Bundle
March 24, 2022
Today we're creating Another Sweet & Simple Card with Stampin'Up! Boughs & Blossoms Bundle. Tuesday we created a little beauty with this bundle so if you missed it check it out here https://www.sandilovesstamping.com/2022/03/designing-simply-sweet-cards-with-staminup-boughs-blossoms-bundle.html
Today's card is a bit quicker and simpler...
and a little closer for the detail...
By drawing a line horizontally in the card center you can keep your line of stamping the leaves straight even though you are re-orienting no worries about cutting plates putting scratches on the foil surface.
And check out that gorgeous Soft Succulent ribbon--satin and soft and a beautiful shade of green to match the ink used in stamping.
Notice that scalloped edge on the white cardstock strip--that was created with the scalloped edge die in the Prized Peony bundle--it includes that nifty stitching right below the scallop.
Notice this is another one of those wonderful cards without a sentiment on the front--this means it's a great addition to your stash for those times when you have 'no time' to stamp and need a card right away. This card can work for just about any occasion--birthday, thank you, thinking of you, anniversary, sympathy and more!
(By the way...if you find many times that you have 'no time' for stamping--you need to look at your schedule and cut out some of those nonessential activities so you do have time for stamping. You'll be happy that you did!)
