Dots or Plaid? Which is your favorite with Sending Smiles Stamp Set?

                

  • Cheery greeting card using Sending Smiles Stamp Set
  • The easy way to save on your new Annual Catalog order
  • Become a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator During May for a bonus In Color Starter Kit Special
I couldn't decide which Pereeket Party In Color print to use on my card today, so I made one of each print.  You decide.  Parakeet Party Plaid?  Or Parakeet Party Dots?  Today's card also used another new In Color for the flowers; Starry Sky.  This is a beautiful, rich blue that I am growing more and more fond of!  I used the Sending Smiles Stamp Set and the Coordinating Sending Dies to create these floral, handmade greeting cards.  I love the dies that create a background for the word "Sending".  It gives the card a professionally printed look.  It works well without the background shape, too!  The Designer Series Papers are from the 2022-2024 In Color 6 X 6" Paper Packs, and I used Solid Faceted Gems to add a little flair to my layout.  Explore more ideas for using the the Sending Smiles Bundle  from the Stampin' Up! 2022-2023 Annual Catalog by visiting pg. 14.    Add it to your Shopping List today! 


Floral greeting card using Stampin' Up! Sending Smiles Stamp Set and coordinating Sending Dies


Today's card uses a base card of Thich Basic White Cardstock.  The basecard is completely covered by one of the Parakeet Party prints from the 2022-2024 In Color 6" X 6" paper pack.  Then I matted a piece of Basic White Cardstock to use as my image layer with a piece of Starry Sky Cardstock.

I used the Sending Dies, which coordinate with the Sending Smiles Stamp Set, to create the two layers for the word "Sending," to create the Basic White sentiment layer, and to create the flower heads.  I stamped the flower head images in Starry Sky ink with Daffodil Delight centers using the Sending Smiles Stamp Set before using the dies to cut them out.  The stems and leaves are stamped in Parkette Party Ink, and the flower heads are mounted on Dimensionals before adding them to the card front.  Tip:  I found that backing my Basic White Cardstock with a layer of Adhesive Sheets before die cutting, made it very easy to apply it to the Starry Sky backing element.

To complete the card, I stamped one of the several sentiments from Sending Smiles Stamp Set in Starry Sky ink onto the sentiment die cut.  Then I added a couple of Solid Faceted Gems to the corner of the card. 

Below are the tools used to create these cards.
