I wish this card featuring Free As A Bird would photograph as pretty as it is in person.  Can you believe I wasn’t that crazy about Free As A Bird when I first got it? How crazy am I? I bought the bundle because I wanted the dies in the bundle. And I though, well why not get both for 10% off? That made the stamp set very affordable. And as it happened, I have made several cards featuring this really pretty stamp set. You can see a card in bright colors HERE and a more subtle version HERE both using the Stitched Nested Label Dies I was so eager to get!

Today’s card features a great paper from the Woven Threads DSP. I love dark-light combinations in colors. And this mix of the very pastel Purple Posy with the dark Pretty Peacock is a great contrast of the new In Colors for 2019-2021. This card feature the darling little bird from Free as a Bird along with some flowers that have all been fussy cut to make this card. The sentiment on the front is from Woven Heirlooms and die cut with a Stitched Rectangle die. And the inside of the card shown below features a sentiment from Free as a Bird.

If you love birds and love coloring images, the the Free as a Bird set is for you! I really enjoyed using Stampin’ Blends to color in these images.  Stamp sets with outline images like this allow you to customize stamps to any color combination you might need.

This is another fast and easy card with the big, bold and beautiful See a Silhouette Designer Series Paper. This time I used Sweetly Swirled, which seems perfect with the waves of color in the card. It reminded me of all the colors in the Mediterranean Sea I was seeing from all the posts about the Stampin’ Up! incentive trip this year. And it also has a Grecian look about it(to me!) just from the swirls in the image.  So, it’s my Greece tribute card. How about that?

This was very simple to do. I layered the DSP with White on a Pacific Point card stock. Because I really felt like the pattern is very “oceany”, I added a few pearls.  The sentiment was simple enough to work. And I tied it all up with some white Baker’s Twine. Simple, done.

I designed it to be a Thank You card and so, the sentiment on the inside sort of reflected the outside of the card. Here is what it looked like:

That’s it! A simple, easy to make card with a big, bold design. So, get out some of that Pacific Point Card stock you have been wondering what to do with and make a few of these easy Thank You cards!

I have been eyeing my “See a Silhouette” Designer Series Paper for a while now. I love the bold designs and the vibrant colors. For me, they are the easy way to add an “artistic” look to cards very similar to what you would get with Stampin’ Up Pigment Sprinkles.  The papers are a variety of artistic designs just waiting for you to make into rich, beautiful cards. See the patterns below.  These designs are all done by Stampin’ Up! designers using Stampin’ Up! colors. Aren’t they wonderful? Click on the image to see more.

For this quick and simple card, I chose a bold pattern of the DSP and then matted it with a solid pattern, which creates a better interest than a solid piece of card stock. The sentiment was stamped using Well Wished and die cut using the Stitched Nested Label dies. Again, the solid color mat was DSP which helped to keep the overall artistic look. For big, rich designs with a truly artistic look, See a Silhouette is perfect!
