Aloha, all!
Well, it's the stamp set, A Beautiful Thing! I have no idea how long it's been around, and I'm just a tad too tired to go researching that tonight.
BUT – I've never owned it until the last week, when I was looking for something to go with the new Extra Large Fancy Flower Punch featured in the Stampin' Up! 2010 Occasions Mini Catalog. Those flowers in A Beautiful Thing looked like they would be just PERFECT with that punch! Looking at today's card, I think I'm right.
This card is a 4" square card, and is the same Easel Card that I showed off last week using Sale-A-Bration stamp sets. I stamped the image with Pumpkin Pie Ink on a scrap of Whisper White Card Stock, and then punched it with the Extra Large Fancy Flower Punch. I finished it off with a bit of sponging around the edges using the Pumpkin Pie ink.
The Designer Series Paper is from the Sweet Pea Paper Stack, also featured in the 2010 Occasions Mini Catalog. The other accent color is Taken With Teal, and the front is finished off with one of the brads from the Flower Assortment Brads, which are in the current 2009 – 2010 Idea Book and Catalog.
The inside of the card also has a stamped image from A Beautiful Thing, the saying that gives the stamp set its name. It's a great little stamp set, and I'm sorry I've waited this long to get it!
