Good Monday Morning! It’s President’s Day today. I do remember celebrating President’s Day as a youngster… and found it fascinating how the president’s accomplished what they did. Today, not so much – I’m not even going to go there. Let’s change the subject, shall we?

I have three cards for you today, all using the Beautifully Happy stamp set that is FREE during Sale-a-bration with a $50 order. And that freebie ends at end of day February 28. If you want this stamp set, now’s the time… do not wait, do not hesitate 😀

All the cards are first stamped in Soft Suede ink and colored with Flirty Flamingo & stamped off Old Olive. I have used the same process for each envelope, changing out the bouquet for a single flower. The stamped floral pattern is also fussy cut in all the cards. On this first card, an additional bloom was fussy cut & added with a dab of liquid glue. Each of the stamped floral bouquets is added to the card front with dimensionals.

Card #1: This card uses Playing In the Rain DSP that was die cut with the Framed Florets Dies, added to a Basic White panel slightly larger then added to a thick Basic White card base.A leaf spray and a single leaf were added, die cut with more dies from the Framed Florets Dies. Adhesive-Backed Milky Dot were added: a Mango Melody for the flower center and four White. A Linen Thread bow was tied around the stem and secured with a glue dot.

Card #2: This card began by die cutting a panel of Basic White with the Split Card Textures Dies, and adhering that to a smaller panel of Dandy Designs DSP, then adding it to the card front with dimesnionals. This DSP is also FREE with a $100 order during Sale-a-bration. Two leaf sprays were die cut with the Framed Florets Dies and added with liquid glue, then the floral bouquet added with dimensionals. Again, an Adhesive-Backed Milky Dot was added to the center flower, in Mango Melody. Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins in Petal Pink, were added for glam, and a Linen Thread bow was added with a glue dot.

Card #3: This card began with a Basic White panel being run through the Quatrefoil Tile Embossing Folder and added directly to the Thick Basic White card base. Another die from Framed Florets was used to make the larger, more intricate die cut. A left over die cut oval from Playing in The Rain was added after placing the plain oval die cut in the center. This created a perfect frame for this card. Two additional leaf sprays were die cut from Basic White and a couple of the small leaves – all with the Framed Florets Dies. Three Adhesive-Backed Milky Dots were added plus a Linen Thread bow.

None of these cards has a sentiment on them, which means they can be used for any purpose necessary. A sentiment could have been added, but I really thought it would detract from the beautiful design.

For the inside of the card, I kept the design really simple for all three cards. A single flower stamped & colored the same as the envelope: Soft Suede for the outline, Flirty Flamingo for the flower, stamped off Old Olive for the leaves and a bit of Mango Melody for the stamped center.

I absolutely love these cards, and of course, the DSP could be changed out and the flowers colored to coordinate and it would look totally different. Such a breath of fresh air!
