Lots of good things happening at the NEW Stamp Simply!

Good Saturday morning! Julie is here today with a lovely pair of cards using our NEW floral sets. Julie used the same layout for both cards – just different florals and sentiments. Super lovely!!!

I find these cards to be absolutely captivating – from the beautifully colored florals to the embossed backgrounds, the die cut corners and lovely little seam binding bows.

Julie colored her images with water-based markers on plain white cardstock.

This beautiful sympathy card was made using our NEW Pretty Poppies.

The background is embossed with the Wire Fence embossing folder by Darice.

The die cut corner is done with the Mixed Media #1 die by Tim Holtz.

The paper showing behind the die cut corner is from Grunge Light by Craft Consortium.

The sentiment is cut with our Fishtail Sentiment Banners.

Here’s a closer look at that beautiful poppy image.

The floral centers are accented with a white gel pen.

This stunning card of encouragement was made using our NEW Delightful Dahlias.

Julie used the same embossing folder, dies, designer paper and ribbon as on the first card.

I absolutely LOVE this beautifully scripted sentiment!

Here’s a closer look at those beautiful dahlias.

Julie accented them with a clear Wink of Stella Glitter Marker.

This pair of cards just couldn’t be any prettier!

Thank you so much, Julie, for this fabulous inspiration!!!

Mixed Media #1 by Tim Holtz (Sizzix)

What a fun die set to add some texture and interest to your projects!

With the Mixed Media Dies you are using the negative space left over, not the positive which is cut out, as there are no cutting blades along the perimeter of these dies.
