Hello Stampin’ Friends!!

Hope you are enjoying your weekend, it’s a HOT one!! lol I’m busy cleaning, organizing, and getting some stamping in too! Today I’d like to share a card with you that I made during my Facebook LIVE last week so some of you may have seen it, but I’ve got a close up for you!!

I was showing different ways to use the NEW Shimmer Vellum, so today I will show you one of the simplest ways … just punch it! It’s the perfect way to embellish a beautiful designer paper such as the Expressions in Ink. Take a look ….

Is this a stunner or what!? This is why I love Stampin’ Up! products … it’s all about the coordination! We start with the Polished Pink card base and then I chose the Expressions In Ink Designer Paper that highlights the Polished Pink color with that amazing watercolor effect and laced with gold!!

I added a gold mat behind the designer paper to really enhance the gold ripples throughout the designer paper. I punched out my Polished Pink Vellum flowers using the Medium Daisy Punch, but I wasn’t done yet ….

I added a few embellishments from the Expressions in Ink Ephemera Pack … more coordination! and by positioning my daisies slightly over the frame, it all ties together perfectly. This close up shows the true shimmer of our vellum, and how these products go together perfectly.

I dazzled my daisies with the NEW In-Color Jewels … but, instead of using the Polished Pink, I chose the Pale Papaya! They pick up the pink from the vellum and have a hint of gold … Perfect! I love the way they look.

This card was so fun and easy to make, but it’s a stunner and your friends are going to love it. And just think, the Expressions in Ink Designer paper have “more” of our In-Colors so it will coordinate with more of our Shimmer Vellum and In-Color Jewels … you can’t go wrong!!

Thank you for taking time out of your day to visit.

Have a wonderful day ~
