Stampin’ Up! Paradise Palms Sandy Beach Birthday at Sunset

Good morning, y’all!  Can you believe that it’s almost the end of March already?  I cannot.  It feels like the Savings Are in Bloom sale and my DOUBLE peppermints started yesterday.  But they didn’t and they’re both almost over. 😳😳😳

In between making bagels and pizza yesterday, I had a Zoom the Craftroom and, while we chatted, made a pretty card for you using the Paradise Palms bundle (which is carrying over into the new catalog – whoohooo!!) and the Tasteful Labels dies (which are NOT – they retire on 2 May and are on sale now for 20% off!).  Take a look-see:

The layout for this one was inspired by the sketch over at the Just Add Ink challenge.

I started with a Very Vanilla panel for the card front.

From a piece of scrap cardstock, I used a smooth-sided Circles Layering Die to cut out a 2 3/8″ wide circle.  Then I set the circle onto the Very Vanilla panel and used it as a mask.

Using a Blending Brush, I added Crushed Curry all around the circle.  Tip:  use a circular motion and start OFF your cardstock on your scrap paper.  I kept adding color until I had the depth of the shade I wanted.  When I picked up the mask, I had a setting sun!  Then I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Soft Suede mat.

I cut three of the large palm trees from Very Vanilla cardstock using the die in the Palms Die set.

I used Blending Brushes to add Evening Evergreen to the tree tops and Soft Suede to the trunks.

I adhered the first two trees with Liquid Glue – and then used small pieces of Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the final tree (that’s the one on the right).

I used the grass die in the Palms Die set to cut out some grass from Very Vanilla – then used the Blending Brushes again to add Evening Evergreen to the top of the die cut – and light Soft Suede to the bottom.  Then I popped it over the bottom of the trunks (which I snipped so they’d not extend past the “grass”) with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock, I stamped  the sentiment from the Paradise Palms stamp set in Evening Evergreen, then cut it with a Tasteful Labels die.

I popped the sentiment onto the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and…forced myself to stop while I was ahead!  It was HAARD – but the card front was done.

On the inside, I stamped a second Paradise Palms sentiment in Evening Evergreen in the middle of a Very Vanilla panel.  Over the top, in stamped-off-once Soft Suede, I added the small three-palm image from Paradise Palms.

I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Soft Suede mat and into my Thick Very Vanilla card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done.

My Very Vanilla Medium Envelope got the three-tree image from Paradise Palms in full-strength Soft Suede on the front…

…and some Evening Evergreen DSP from the 2021-2023 In Colors DSP on the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  I am so SO happy that the Paradise Palms stamp set and Palms Dies (which work with the Mini Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine!) will be around for another year, aren’t you??  BUT – and this is sorta big! – when it re-appears in the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog, it will NOT be a bundle!  Which means you will NOT get the instant 10% savings!  Which subsequently means that – if you love this one like I do – then you want to get it right now before the Jan – Jun 2022 Mini Catalog goes away in June!  But, the Tasteful Labels die set is ALREADY on the retiring list, so..THAT one is now while-supplies-last (with a 20% discount!) and things have been flying off the shelf!

I hope you like!

Don’t miss your chance to pick up the handy and highly portable Mini Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine – and all the great bundles that are on sale! When you make a $50+ purchase from me this month (which is like…two more days!) – whether you buy the Mini Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine and/or any of the sale bundles or not – you’re going to get the MEGA Tutorial Bundle – on top of your DOUBLE PEPPERMINTS, your normal ordering gift AND the Daffodil Daydream Tutorial.  That’s a lotta loot! 🙂  All the deets are down below!  BUT – this ALL ends on 31 March – which is right around the corner!

If you’d like to recreate this card, all the products and card cuts you’ll need are down below!

And…I’ve also created a printable PDF with written instructions and a list of the products used to create this project.  You can download, print and/or save it by clicking this image:

He is staring with intense focus into the window attempting to use the Aussie mind-meld (which is impossible without physically touching the other person, but…that’s a whole ‘nuther thing) to get the teller to giiiiivvveee the dog a coooooookkkiiiiiiieeeee……

Oddly – she appeared to NOT even see him! 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀

Wayne had to ASK for the obligatory bank cookie.

How did she MISS him!? 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
