Aloha, all!
As I write this, I am madly rushing around doing all travel-prep things I should have done yesterday! As you read this, I'm actually in a place where I can do some crafting, and I'm surely loving it.
The rush to get this project done was so that I would have my Design Team project for the biweekly Stampin' Up! Only Challenge! The theme for this challenge is "Our Favorite new Papers or Cardstock." As you know, when I left home, I could not yet order much from the new catalog, and the papers that were offered in the pre-order were not going to be my favorites. But I do have the new "In Colors" from Stampin' Up!, and today I'm choosing Dapper Denim as my favorite of the day! (I love them all!.)
I made this card for a very dear friend whose husband passed away several years ago, and I sent it on the occasion of their wedding anniversary. Janet's favorite color is blue, so I wanted a card with lots of blue. I picked not only the Dapper Denim (the darker color), but also Marina Mist and Pool Party.
Lots of layers on this card, but I did want it to be special.
I've talked here about the Wonderful Wreath Framelits and Circle of Spring stamp set that goes with the framelits, so I won't go much into detail. The sentiment is from Watercolor Wishes Stamp Set, and I cut the layered labels using the Tags and Labels Framelits.
That's about it for a quick explanation! But I hope you'll visit the SUO Challenges blog over the next two weeks and join in the challenge fun!
Hi Robin, Beautiful card, love the color choices and this stamp set! Stampin' Up! by far has the best sets or I would not be a demonstrator. Thank you for sharing your card!
