Kylie's Demonstrator Training Program Monthly Blog Hop April 2020

Welcome to Kylie's Demonstrator Training Program Monthly Blog Hop for the month of April. You will be visiting with Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world as we share our creative projects to help inspire you. 
 My card design today features an old favorite from the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog. I chose to use the Flourishing Phrases stamp set with the Flourishing Dies (item #151769) to create this pretty Get Well card design. For my color palette, I chose Bermuda Bay, Pool Party, Blushing Bride and Silver. 
 I chose Bermuda Bay cardstock for my card base and added a layer of Pool Party cardstock that I embossed using the Subtles 3D Embossing Folder to add texture. The die cut flourishes were die cut from Bermuda Bay cardstock and adhered to the card front. I die cut one of the large flowers and two of the small flowers from Blushing Bride cardstock and attached them to the card front with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals. For a touch of bling, I added Clear Faceted Gems to the centers of the flowers.
The sentiment has been heat embossed using Silver Embossing Powder onto Whisper White cardstock and die cut using the Layering Circles Dies and layered onto a Silver Foil circle with a slightly larger circle die. I attached the sentiment to the center of the design with Stampin' Dimensionals. 
As we all try to find our new normal with everything that is going on, I think that cards like this are important to send to people to let them know they are not alone. For me, creating cards brings me peace and helps me to get through each day. I hope that this card inspires you to create your own peace through creativity.
