Ink. Stamp. Share. January Showcase Blog Hop

Welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share. January Showcase Blog Hop. You will be visiting with wonderful Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world as they share their projects and ideas to help spark your creativity.

One of my favorite things about card making is that I can customize my cards to suit the person who is receiving it. There is nothing more frustrating for me than to go to a store to buy a card and not be able to find the card I want. By making my own cards, I also get to enjoy some Creative Therapy time to relax and unwind. Today's card design is a clean and simple card design that is fun and fresh. I just love this beautiful Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper (item #155222), which is a Level 1 Sale-a-bration Reward, that you can earn Free with a qualifying order during Sale-a-bration. I paired it with the You Are Amazing stamp set (item #154534)from the new January-June 2021 Mini Catalog and my favorite Stitched So Sweetly Dies (item #151690).

This card design is simple to create and easy to customize to suit a variety of occasions. I love that the Night of Navy cardstock makes the colors of the designer series paper pop. I heat embossed the sentiment from the You Are Amazing stamp set with White Embossing Powder onto the Night of Navy sentiment label and I colored the embossed words using Stampin' Blends Markers, Seaside Spray for the Happy and Rococo Rose for the Birthday, to coordinate with the designer series paper. I like that the Whisper White Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon adds a softness to the card without overpowering it and the small Basic Rhinestones add a touch of bling to finish it off. I hope that the person who receives this card loves it as much as I loved creating it.
