Simply Elegant Designer Series Paper

The Simply Elegant Designer Series paper pack truly is elegant and I created this card for a friend of mine who will be ordained a priest in a few weeks. It is simple and yet elegant, gee I wonder who named this paper pack.

I used Smoky Slate and Cajun Craze cardstock. It is amazing how the Smoky Slate takes on a silver hue and the Cajun Craze a copper hue when combined with this extraordinary paper. I will definitely be adding another pack to my next order.

Bloom Where You’re Planted!

Today in the greenhouse we have some potted plants from the Simply Succulents Bundle and a splash of the Bloom Where You’re Planted Designer Series Paper.

I don’t know about you, but I seem to be always in need of a simple thank you card. Receiving a hand-crafted card is a true treasure and a great way to spread a little joy.

I love all the colors in this designer series paper and with a little fussy cutting, I dressed up the inside of my card. I don’t love fussy cutting things, but the Stampin’ Up! Paper Snips sure does make the job easier. It is all about the right tools, right? Or should I say toys! LOL

  • Cinnamon Cider Cardstock- 5½ x 8½ (card base)

  • Bloom Where You’re Planted Designer Series Paper
  • Simply Succulents Bundle
  • Memento Black Ink # 132708
  • Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine #149653
  • Paper Snips #103579
  • Stampin’ Seal Adhesive
  • Tombow Liquid Glue

Directions

  • Score the Cinnamon Cider cardstock in landscape position at 4¼. Fold & burnish.
  • Cut a 4×4 piece of DSP and then cut it on the diagonal, creating two equal pieces.
  • Attach one piece to the Basic White panel and then attach to the card front.
  • Use the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine and the Simply Succulents Bundle to crop the planter and the greenery. Attach the greenery to the planter using liquid glue.
  • Now attach the plants to the card front.
  • Use the Stamparatus to stamp the greeting in Memento Black Ink.
  • Use the Paper Snips to fussy cut one of the plants from the paper.
  • Use the Stamparatus to add the inside greeting and attach the potted plant on the lower right corner and adhere to the inside.
