Flower Fest Stamp Set and Twitterpaded DSP

The beautiful Flower Fest Stamp Set, will no longer be available after May 31, which is next Thursday.  One of the images, the flower, from the stamp set is featured on this card.

Also featured on this card is the beautiful Twitterpaded Designer Series Paper (DSP), which is being carried over into the new catalog that debuts next Friday!  (Aren’t you so excited about the new catalog?)
The card base is 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ that opens from the bottom.  It is made with Lucky Limeade Card Stock.  Hopefully you can see the diagonal lines I created on it with the Stampin’ Up! Simply Scored Diagonal Plate for the Simply Scored Scoring Tool.
The triangle mat for the top piece that holds a triangle piece of the Twitterpaded DSP is made from Riding Hood Red Card Stock, as is the scallop trim made with the Scallop Trim Border Punch.  The piece of Twitterpaded DSPthat runs down the front of the card is approximately 4-1/4″ long and 1-3/8″ wide.
The sentiment “Friend” is from the You’re A Gem stamp set that retires next Thursday.  The upcoming Bitty Banners Framelits (129267) was used for the Whisper White Card Stock that the sentiment is on.  The mat for the sentiment is Baja Breeze Card Stock.
TIP:  If you do not have a matching banner that is slightly larger that one you used, trace around that banner with a pencil onto card stock and cut out the tracing.  That is how I made the Baja Breeze mat.  It may be slightly different, but it sure meets the need.
 
The flower featured on the card (from Flower Fest stamp set) is embossed with White Embossing Powder and water colored with the Stampin’ Up! Aqua Painter, using Daffodil Delight and Riding Hood Red Inks.
If you have questions on the card, click on the “Ask Questions” button under the banner and send me your question(s).  Enjoy!
God’s Blessings!

Floral District DSP

My friends, I have fallen in love with the new Stampin’ Up! (SU) Floral District DSP that becomes available on June 1!  I am so pleased with the new SU products.  My card share today features the Floral District DSP, and I have to say, that I really love this card.  It is so pretty in person.  When June 1 rolls around, you must order the Floral District DSP; you won’t regret it.

If I have to say it myself, I think I did a very clever thing with the ribbon.  At first glance, it appears as though it is wrapped around the card, but it isn’t.  In the following three pictures you can see that it’s not.
