Happy Tuesday, y’all! Hope your week is going well. I’m totally ready to go – all packed. Cards made. House tidy.
Bwahahahahahah!! Oh – I cwack myself up! Amy gets in around 1430 tomorrow so..I suspect I’ll be “ready” at about…7am Thursday morning! LOL!
My card today is a tropical paradise – on paper! I used the cool Countless Trees stamp set – the pretty Into the Clouds 3D Embossing Folder and a few Deckled Rectangle die cuts! Take a look-see:
I know. I wish I was there right now, too! 🙂
I started by cutting the largest Deckled Rectangle die from a piece of Soft Succulent cardstock. Then I embossed it in the Into the Clouds 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the front of a Soft Succulent card base with Liquid Glue!
I cut another Deckled Rectangle – this time the Third-from-the-Largest – from a piece of Basic White cardstock.
Hmm…all of a sudden it feels like I’m showcasing the Deckled Rectangle Die set this week. 🤔🤔🤔 Well – maybe I am! It’s AWESOME!
I started stamping trees from the Countless Trees set. This set is called a Reversible – you stamp the detailed images with one side of the stamp and then you flip it over and stamp the “fill” with the other side. Cool, right?
So – I made the short willow-y tree with full-strength Mint Macaron for the detailed leaves – and stamped-off-once Mint Macaron for the “fill. The tall palm is done in Soft Succulent – same idea. And both trunks in Soft Suede. I stamped “grass” across the bottom in Mint Macaron.
I adhered the panel to the card front with Liquid Glue.
I used a couple of Glue Dots to adhere a length of Pool Party 3/8″ Sheer Ribbon.
On piece of Basic White, I stamped a Very Best Occasions sentiment in Pale Papaya – then cut it out with the Cloud Punch.
I popped the sentiment over the ribbon with a few Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Three sweet Pearl Hearts finished off the card front!
On the inside, I cut another of the largest Deckled Rectangles from Basic White cardstock. Then I stamped a second Very Best Occasions sentiment in Pale Papaya. And added a palm tree and some grass in Mint Macaron and Soft Suede.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to the inside of the Soft Succulent card base and the card was done!
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the palm tree and grass on the front…
…and I found the perfect Celebrate Everything DSP to put on the envelope flap! Man – this host-exclusive designer paper pack is so stinkin’ handy!
Et Voila! The Countless Trees set is VERY aptly named! Sooooo many arboreal (😎) possibilities!!
But – no sentiments so…unless you’re going blank (and not a THING wrong with that!!) – then you’re going to want a sentiment. Fortunately, the Very Best Occasions set fills the bill in a BIG way!
I hope you like!
