Good morning, y’all! It’s Thursday – which means it’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a color challenge to work with and I’m excited to see what everyone brings to the table. I just know you’re going to see a ton of awesome-ness on the hop today!
I leaned into the color palette with my card – pulling out the wunnermus Country Woods DSP and adding a couple three other goodies…like one of my fave stamp sets – the gorgeous You Are Beautiful set, the sentiment-only Wonderful Thoughts set and…the Greetings of the Season die set (which you’ll be able to pick up on 3 July in the new Online Exclusive)! Take a look-see:
And – here are the colors we worked with this week!
And since I’m always on the prowl for layout ideas, I used this one from the Sketch Saturday challenge.
I also grabbed some elements from this week’s Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge! I went across the top – friendship, gems and layers!
I started by adhering a piece of Country Woods DSP to the front of a Pecan Pie card base using Liquid Glue.
I matted a second design on Petal Pink and adhered that to the card front as well.
Using the new Greetings of the Season die set (available on 3 July), I cut out two large tags – each from a different Country Woods DSP design.
I adhered the bottom tag with Liquid Glue.
I pulled out the pretty foliage image from the You Are Beautiful stamp set and stamped the second tag once in Misty Moonlight. Then I adhered that tag with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Using the Bough Punch, I cut out three of the larger boughs from some new Graceful Greenery Vellum Specialty DSP (also new on 3 July as an Online Exclusive). I used the Dark Pool Party Stampin’ Blend to color the vellum boughs and adhered them with Glue Dots.
I used the Light Petal Pink Stampin’ Blend to color some white Baker’s Twine and then used two lengths of it to tie a simple bow – which I adhered the bow at the top of the tag with a Glue Dot.
I stamped the sentiment from You Are Beautiful in Misty Moonlight on Petal Pink cardstock, cut it out with a Stylish Shapes banner die and adhered it with Liquid Glue and a Stampin’ Dimensional (on the left end).
I added some Adhesive-backed Metallic Gems and the card front was done!
For the inside, I stamped a sentiment (one I really love!) from the Wonderful Thoughts stamp set in Misty Moonlight on a Smoky Slate panel. Across the bottom I stamped the You Are Beautiful leaves a few times in Misty Moonlight.
I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Petal Pink mat and into the Pecan Pie card base and the card was done!
My Basic White Medium Envelope got the You Are Beautiful leaves on the front…
…and more Country Woods DSP on the envelope flap.
Et Voila! Wow – the new Greetings of the Season dies are going to be AMAZING – for the holidays and WAAAY beyond! Be sure to pick up this set – and some Graceful Greenery Vellum Specialty DSP – on 3 July when the next set of Online Exclusives drops for customers! You can get the Country Woods DSP, the You Are Beautiful and Wonderful Thoughts stamp sets right now. And…you should! 😉

Thanks very much, Darlene! I appreciate you stopping by! 🙂
Hello Mary! I hope you and your men are keeping cool and dry!
Love your card layout! I was just looking for a tag die and couldn’t find one in my stash. Could you share the measurements of the big tag die you’ve used on this card? I’m hoping it’s bigger than the other tag dies – which is what I’ve been looking for.
Thanks, and have a great weekend!
Hey Angie – so glad that you liked the card! That tag measures 2 1/2″ x 3 3/4″ when it’s cut out! Hope that helps!
Thanks!
That DSP makes a fabulous rustic backdrop! great card!
Thanks so much, Linda – isn’t this DSP beautiful!? 🙂
