Hello Stampin’ Friends,
Let me first send my thoughts and prayers on this Memorial Day to all the service members and their families, who have sacrificed so much to give us the freedoms we enjoy in this country. I thank you as well.
Today’s card encourages the receiver to “Dare to Dream”, so whether it’s a graduation, a new job or someone moving into a whole new life experience this sweet and simple card will fit the bill. It’s simplicity makes quite a statement.
I have been choosing to showcase simpler cards lately because our summers seem so busy, especially at this time of year. Use this quick -n- easy pattern with any Washi tape to create your card and get back to enjoying your summer.
I will say … it’s getting harder to pick stamp sets, because many on the retirement list are quickly selling out. The “Loving Thoughts” stamp set used for my greeting only has the wood mount remaining … the clear mount set is sold out.
The yellow checked washi tape comes from the “Gingham Garden” designer collection and is currently on sale… 30% Off!! That is good news.
As you can see, I added a bit of the washi tape to the inside too. Washi tape is so fun and easy to use!
My butterflies were created by layering the punched Bitty Butterfly over the Elegant Butterfly. I just love the way this looks … oh, and I used the “Watercolor Wonder” designer paper to punch the butterflies out of. I used the “string” of rhinestones for the butterfly body.
I finished off my card by anchoring it with the 3 rhinestones at the bottom. If you haven’t guessed my color pallet by now … I used Whisper White and the beautiful Daffodil Delight.
I have a list of ingredients at the end of my post for you. Just click on it to view more details or to begin shopping. We only have a few days left before these items retire for good. Please let me know if I can help you.
Have yourself a wonderful day.
