Stampin’ Up! Seasoned With Kindness Thanks

Happy Happy Hawwwmp Day, y’all!  Hope your week is going well!  I appreciate all the kind e-mails and well-wishes I’ve gotten these past couple of days as I’ve dealt with my hives.  They seem to be on the mend – still look pretty awful, but the medicine I’ve been taking seems to have finally gotten the itching under control!  🙂

I made a little thank you card for you today – borrowing some ideas from the catalog.  No – I’m not ashamed to admit it – those SU! designers are awesome and the catalog is a super place to go to get design inspiration!

I used the host-exclusive stamp set called Seasoned With Kindness along with a little dab of Nature’s Poem DSP.  Take a look-see:

I started with a Shaded Spruce card base and used the fun foliage image from Seasoned with Kindness to stamp all over the front with Shaded Spruce ink.

Then I took two pieces of Grapefruit Grove paper from the Nature’s Poem DSP and adhered them to the card front with Liquid Glue.  Over top of those, I added a couple of lengths of 5/8″ Burlap Ribbon.

For the art piece, I stamped the foliage in Granny Apple Green and Shaded Spruce directly to the Whisper White panel.  I used Shaded Spruce for the outline images and Granny Apple Green (full strength on the left-side leaves and stamped off once on the right-side.)  Then, on a scrap of Gray Granite card stock, I stamped the two-step pot images in Gray Granite and fussy cut each pot.

I wrapped a piece of Linen Thread around each pot, securing it in the back with a Glue Dot.  Then I popped the pots over the plants with a Stampin’ Dimensional.  I tied three tiny Linen Thread bows and added them with a dab of Liquid Glue.

Finally, for the tag, I stamped the Seasoned With Kindness image in Grapefruit Grove on Whisper Whtie and fussy cut it.  I used my Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Write Marker to add some faux stitches to the tag – and to the art panel.  I tucked the tag under the Linen Thread bow with a little more Glue.  Then I popped the whole panel onto the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  And that was it for the card front.

On the inside, I stamped a sentiment from Seasoned With Kindness in Grapefruit Grove on a Whisper White panel.  Next to it, I added a flower – stamping the outline in Shaded Spruce and the fill in stamped-off-once Grapefruit Grove and stamped-off-once Granny Apple Green.  Then I added more faux stitches in Shaded Spruce.

I adhered the panel to a Grapefruit Grove mat and then into the card base with Liquid Glue and the card was done!

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got another flower on the front…

…and a bunch of foliage in Shaded Spruce and Granny Apple Green on the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  Isn’t this Seasoned With Kindness such a pretty set??  I really love the greenery and the cute little pots!  Hope you like!
