New At SU August Blog Hop 2023-2024 Annual Catalog Masterfully Made Suite

Welcome to the New At SU August Blog Hop as we showcase the amazing suites in the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog. Our wonderful Design Team will be sharing their projects and ideas using the products in these suites to help inspire you to create your own beautiful projects.

When I think about the Masterfully Made Suite Collection, I think of texture and color. The designs in the Masterfully Made Designer Series Paper are filled with beautiful bright colors and the look of torn paper and distressed backgrounds adds wonderful texture to projects without all the work. I am so excited to share the card design I created with this wonderful suite and hopefully inspire you to take a second look at these amazing products.

For my card today, I wanted to show how the products in this suite coordinate to help create wonderful designs. For the background, I chose one of the designs from the Masterfully Made Designer Series Paper and cut it into 2 pieces to showcase both sides of this pretty sheet of paper. I adhered them to the Fresh Freesia card base, making sure to leave a small space between the two pieces to create the look of a border. To add texture to the card design, I die cut the large foliage die cut from Lost Lagoon cardstock and the large leaf from Vellum cardstock. I trimmed both pieces to fit on the front of the larger panel and adhered them with Mini Glue Dots. For the sentiment, I heat embossed the image with White embossing powder onto the Lost Lagoon label. For the Pretty Peacock label, I stamped the script textured image with Pretty Peacock Classic ink to create a tone on tone background. I added a piece of the White Glittered Organdy Ribbon to the back of the Lost Lagoon label and then used Stampin' Dimensionals to attach it to the Pretty Peacock label. I attached the labels over the center of the foilage die cuts using Stampin' Dimensionals, hiding the stems. To complete the card design, I chose to add some bling. I didn't have the Adhesive Backed Sequins Trio from the suite, so I used the pink sequins from the Pastel Adhesive Backed Sequins instead to add a touch of sparkle. I love how these products coordinate to create this beautiful card and wonderful texture to the design.
