Hey, y’all!  It’s the weekend!  My last weekend home for a while.  This time next week, I’ll be on my way to Florida.  For a couple of months!  

Got a lot to get done between now and then, on top of still working every day.  But today, I’m headed to get my pre-trip hair cut (got to last me until I get home again!) and make a last trip to Costco.  There are no Costco’s in Ft. Walton Beach.  Have to drive about 2 hours to get to one.  Can you imagine??  

And when I get home, I have this to tackle….

Yep – it’s Share Cutting Weekend!!  And weeknight….and early mornings…. got to get them all chopped up and in the mail to y’all!! 🙂

Should have been working on that this afternoon – but instead, I was making a card.  Cuz that’s what I really wanted to do!  I used my Label Me Pretty stamp set and a little of the pretty Fresh Florals DSP in Powder Pink.  Take a look-see:

My layout was inspired – although I didn’t do a square card – by this week’s Mojo Monday sketch.

And the color scheme – one of my favorites! – is from the Color Throwdown.

I started with a Powder Pink floral paper from the new Fresh Florals DSP and matted it on Night of Navy (yes, I know – it looks like Black in the picture, but…it’s not!).

The next layer is a piece of Whisper White that I embossed in the Petal Burst TIEF and SNAILd – with the DE-bossed side up – on Night of Navy and then SNAILd to the card front.

For the next strip, I used the other side of the first Fresh Florals DSP paper, SNAILing it to Night of Navy mat and then to the card front.

I wrapped a length of Powder Pink 1/2″ Finely Woven Ribbon around the whole thing, securing it in the back with some scotch tape.

My sentiment, from the new Label Me Pretty stamp set, is heat embossed in Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder on a piece of Whisper White and cut out with an oval Stitched Shapes Framelit.  I SNAILd it to a scalloped-edge oval that I’d cut with an Ovals Layering Framelit.  I lightly colored the flowers in the design with Powder Pink ink that I picked up from the lid of my ink pad with a Blender Pen.

I popped the finished sentiment over the ribbon with some Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Finally, I tied a bow with some more of the Powder Pink 1/2″ Finely Woven Ribbon and attached it with a Glue Dot – and the card front was done!

On the inside, I enlisted the help of a pretty flower image from the Touches of Texture stamp set, stamping it in Powder Pink in the middle of a Whisper White panel.  When it was completely dry, I heat embossed a single-word-sentimet from… the Beautiful You stamp set…in gold.

I SNAILd the panel to a Night of Navy mat and into my Thick Whisper White card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got a few more Touches of Texture flowers in Powder Pink across the front…

…and then I added some more of the Powder Pink Fresh Florals DSP to the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  Isn’t that Label Me Pretty image such a pretty floral sentiment?  Maybe that’s why SU! put “Pretty” in the name!?!  And I think it works perfectly in embossed gold with the Night of Navy and the Fresh Florals DSP!  Hope you like!
