Hello and a very blessed Sunday to y’all. I’m honored that you are choosing to spend part of your Sunday with me
Today’s card is quick and easy. Sometimes you just need it to be that way. I used the very soon to be available 2024 – 2026 In Color cardstock and the Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper to make this card.
My card base is Pretty in Pink. I used Summer Splash as a layer and three patterns of Unbounded Beauty 3/4″ strips. I used the Unbounded Love Stamp Set sentiment and an Unbounded Love Die to cut the sentiment frame. I actually cut two of the frame – one in Basic White and one in Summer Splash. I used the Summer Splash frame with a Basic White inside and stamped with Pretty In Pink ink. Although not part of the Unbounded Beauty Suite, I used three of the Pretty In Pink 2024 – 2026 In Color Shimmer Gems on the front of the card.
For the inside, I used my standard Basic White panel with a 3/8″ Pretty In Pink floral strip of Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper as an inside decoration. I used the same pattern paper for the envelope flap. To finish up, I used the Flowers of Beauty Stamp Set and stamped the small flower outline and the inside of the flower in Pretty in Pink. I tried to stamp off once and stamp the inside for some contrast, but it didn’t work well for me – too light.

Retired Stampin’ Up! Products
My online Stampin’ Up! retired product store has been refreshed with additional products. I will be adding more retired products as I come across them. I have a variety of stamps, dies and embellishments. My stamps and dies are all gently used and most were purchased within the last two years (although some may be “vintage”). Dies might be on magnet cards as I did not start saving the original packaging until just recently. Designer Series Paper and embellishments are new in unopened packages unless otherwise stated.
Due to Stampin’ Up! policies, I can only ship to U. S. addresses.
