Happy Tuesday, peeps! The Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge is a long skinny one this week:
and so I decided to make a birthday card using the beautiful Hues of Happiness DSP; they have several ombre patterns which I thought would fit the sketch nicely! So here we go:
Stampin' Up! has some long skinny envelopes in this year's catalogs, so I made my card 8 1/2" x 3 3/4" to fit. I cut one panel of the ombre DSP, then fussy cut flowers to coordinate with each section, stamping the birthday greeting from Happiness Abounds in Melon Mambo below the pink flower:
These papers are so gorgeous, making a beautiful card is quite easy! I stamped two more sentiments on the inside and stamped a floral outline in Blushing Bride on top. And it's ready to go in the mail!
I finally found a primitive frame at a yard sale recently for 25 cents; it was the right size to frame my little turkey sampler that I stitched in 2020! I took a break from stamping and put it all together just in time for the holiday!
I have to stop stitching these things...I'm running out of room to display them, LOL! Thanks for visiting today...enjoy it and be blessed!

Beautiful card, LeAnne! I love the Happiness Abounds set & DSP! It makes such colorful, pretty cards and I really like your slimline card, too! Oh and your stitched turkey looks fabulous in that frame! How perfect! :)
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful paper collection, and you're showing off those fussy cutting skills again! So pretty - what a wonderful wish!
ReplyDeleteDon't stop, LeAnne - this little frame is just perfect!

LeAnne, this is such a beautiful card! I will hate to see that DSP go bye bye!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful card, Leanne! Your fabulous stitching looks right at home in your 25 cent frame!
ReplyDeleteLove your card, pretty flowers and great sentiment.
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card, LeAnne. I haven't purchased much new DSP lately but that is one that I have. Coordinating the flowers with the DSP colors was such a good idea. I love your sweet turkey stitch and how lucky to find the perfect frame.
ReplyDeleteI always love the colors in this DSP and it's beautiful for a birthday card. It works so well with the sketch, love it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful card. I agree that the paper is gorgeous. I love that you went with a spring or summer color palette as the fall has been dreary. Thank you for joining us this week at the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge and look forward to seeing you again soon!
