Good Monday morning, y’all! Hope you had a most wunnermus weekend and are rested and refreshed as you head into your work week! I have TWO admin notes before we get crafty! First – I have a conflict this afternoon so there will NOT be a Monday Zoom The Craftroom – I’m so sorry! 🙁 And TWO – this is the FINAL day to get a FREE Stampin’ Positioner when you join the team! So – if you’ve been waiting till the very end…uhm…it’s here! 🙂
Okay – so – on to the card! This one is a bit of a kluge of old and new! I used the amazeballs Textured Notes bundle – on the Last Chance list so…when it’s gone it’s gone 🥺🥺🥺 and the dies from the Nature’s Symphony set. That’s the “old”! I used the even more wunnermus NEW Wood Grain Wonders DSP and a few – also new! – Natural Matte Dots! These are available starting tomorrow! Take a look-see:
The layout for this one was inspired by the Freshly Made Sketches challenge this week.
I did a quick video on how to make this card – which is posted on Instagram. If you’d like to give that a watch – click here!
I started by adhering a piece of Basic Beige paper from the Wood Grain Wonders DSP to a Pecan Pie panel for the card front.
Using the “board” die in the Nature’s Symphony die set, I cut out three shapes from the Pecan Pie paper in the Wood Grain Wonders DSP.
Using Liquid Glue, I adhered the three die cuts to the card front.
With my fave foliage die in the Nature’s Symphony set – and yet ANOTHER piece of the Wood Grain Wonders DSP – this time in Early Espresso – I cut out the big leaf.
I used Mini Black Stampin’ Dimensionals – quite a few of them, actually! – to adhere the leaf to the card front.
I tied a little bow from some Very Vanilla Baker’s Twine and adhered it with a dab of Liquid Glue.
On another piece of Basic Beige Wood Grain Wonders DSP, I stamped the Textured Notes sentiment in Early Espresso ink. Then I cut it out with the smallest Textured Notes die and adhered it over the bow with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I added three Basic Beige dots from the new Natural Matte Dots and the card front was done!
On the inside, I stamped a Textured Notes sentiment in Early Espresso on a piece of Basic Beige Wood Grain Wonders DSP (seeing a trend, yet??). In the corner, I stamped the pretty Textured Notes leaves – twice! – in Pecan Pie ink. Then I added a few more Basic Beige Natural Matte Dots!
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to the inside of my Early Espresso card base, popped the card front on with Black Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done.
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the Textured Notes leaves on the front…
…and more of the Wood Grain Wonders DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! Okay – I’m not going to lie – I am beyond sad that the Textured Notes bundle is retiring – it is so stinkin’ good! If you do NOT have this bundle – please – PLEASE!! – get it right now! It’s SO good, in fact – especially the dies! – that I just might be tempted to hang on to it even when it’s truly gone for good. And y’all know I don’t keep many things once they retire! The Nature’s Symphony bundle is equally wonderful – that big leaf die cut is simply the best!! Starting tomorrow – be sure to get a pack – heck, get TWO! – of the new Wood Grain Wonders DSP. And a pack or two of the Natural Matte Dots. I love love love them both – and so will you!
I hope you like!

Yesterday was a pretty day here in GA! Almost 70 – not a lot of wind.
So – we opened the house up!
They like when the door is open. Addy was trying to lie in that sun-spot – but…it kept moving! 😉
