Stampin’ Up! Eastern Palace and Delightful Daisy Match Up!

Good Monday morning, y’all!  Welcome to the work week!  Bleh.

That’s how I’m starting to feel about work.  Just…bleh.

Thank goodness it’s still supporting my SU! habit or…might be time to pull the plug!

If you didn’t get to see my Facebook Live video from last night, here it is!  Enjoy!

For today, I wanted to share another Clean-and-Simple card using the wonderful Eastern Palace bundle – the one that will be available in the new catalog.  That’s the Eastern Beauty stamp set and Eastern Medallions Thinlits.  If you remember, the super cool, super-value Starter and Premium Bundles – with the FREE goodies! – will only be available thru the end of this month!  So…if you like free (and…uhm…who doesn’t?!) you might want to consider grabbing up either of those bundles right quick-like!  The info is down below.  This card uses the goodies in the Starter Bundle – but remember there’s even more free stuff in the Premium Bundle.  Just sayin’…

So – I paired it up with some of the Delightful Daisy DSP (coming 1 June) and added a touch from the new Sparkle Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (also coming on 1 June!) and…take a look-see:

My layout was inspired by the Freshly Made Sketches challenge this week:

And my color scheme is courtesy of the Just Us Girls Color Week challenge.

I started with a piece of the Night of Navy paper from the Delightful Daisy DSP and SNAILd it to the top of a Lemon-Lime Twist mat.  This new bright color is an amazing accent color!  For the bottom portion, I ran a smaller piece of Night of Navy card stock thru the Big Shot in the new Sparkle TIEF (1 June) and adhered it with SNAIL.

Using a piece of Whisper White card stock, I cut the Eastern Medallion die cuts.  I laid them both out on the card stock at the same time – and added the largest smooth-sided circle die from the Circles Layering Framelits around both medallion dies.  So I made three cuts with just one pass in the Big Shot!

Once my cut was made, I used the little accent image from the Eastern Beauty stamp set and stamped it around the outer edge in Tempting Turquoise.  I added the sentiment, also in Tempting Turquoise, and the circle-of-dots in Lemon-Lime Twist, too.

I matted my medallion on a scalloped Lemon-Lime Twist mat, using Liquid Glue, and then popped it all over the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card front was done!

On the inside, I kept it very simple, just adding a second Eastern Beauty sentiment and more of the little accents images in Tempting Turquoise on a Whisper White panel.

I SNAILd the panel to a Lemon-Line Twist mat and into my Night of Navy card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals, and the card was done!

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got the little Eastern Beauty flourish in all four corners on the front, in Tempting Turquoise…

…and more of the Delightful Daisy DSP on the envelope flap.  And…I may have added another couple of little flourishes, cuz I liked ’em! 🙂

Et Voila!  This Eastern Palace bundle is just wonderful – so full of possibility – so many combinations!  I just love it – and hope you like, too!  Don’t miss your chance to get the big bundles while they last!

Finn-Fan Fix…

My puppy is kind of a goofball.

I think we’ve established that.

And I don’t mind.  Goofy is fun.

But – when he starts doing things that make me feel like a dog abuser….I have to draw the line.

Poor poor puppy.  

His parents won’t even give him a soft place to lay.

No plush bed for this abused pooch.

Nope.  Gotta use a rock for a pillow. 😏

  1. Pretty, pretty! I printed out 6 pages of different configurations for these dies yesterday. I have yet to use them. I need to carve out an afternoon for it. Our cat lays her head over the rung of a chair for a pillow and sleeps inside a cardboard box instead of her plush bed. Have a great week and I hope work isn’t too tough on you.

    • Thanks, Karen! I didn’t realize when I made all the medallion examples for my video several weeks back how handy they’d end up being when making cards! You’re going to love the medallions! Animals. They’re weirdos. It’s the only explanation! Work won’t be tough. Just…bleh! 🙂

  2. Kathleen VanDeVeere

    Pretty card.
    Can’t feel overly sorry for the Finn.

  3. Love your card! The colors are just perfect and so is your design!

    And our dog is just the same…she pushes the soft pillow aside and sleeps on the concrete…weird dogs!! 🙂

  4. Oh, so pretty, Mary! I love those colors together!

  5. Lovely card, and, yes, the LLT is a good accent for this. Still don’t like it, but I guess one doesn’t have to like it to recognize its value. Happy now? 🙂
    Poor doggie. Don’t you just wonder sometimes how they think?? A rock? For cryin’ out loud! He must have been working pretty hard laying those stones.

    • LOL. Guess once you lay them you want to lay ON them!! I think it’s cool… thanks much, Julie. And yes. Happy now! 😊

  6. You’ve shown off that medallion beautifully – LOVE the colors you’ve chosen. The brights really pop from the blue! Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.

  7. LOVE what you have done with the Eastern Palace Suite. Just beautiful, I can’t wait to get mine tomorrow. Great take on the challenge, thanks so much for playing along with us this week over at Just Us Girls!!!
