A Layered Labels Wedding

The first of the many weddings that I've been invited to this year begins this Saturday. That means..wedding cards!!

Spring wedding cards are a bit different to do. There's always the tough decision on which warm spring tone to put on the card. To help make starting the wedding card quicker, I referred to the wedding invitation that the bride and her helpers had made with Stampin' Up! cardstock. Her wedding color includes the 2011-2013 in-color Calypso Coral. So I matched it with a coordinating pink and of course a doily!

The stamp set I used here is the Layered Labels set.

Retiring List only until June 3: Reminder that the items on the retiring list are running out of time and stock! This includes retiring colors in addition to the 2011-2013 in-color family! View the retiring list here. Pin It now!

A Round Array Creative Wednesday

Having purchased the A Round Array stamp set and coordinating punch bundle when it was first released a few weeks ago, I hadn't gotten a chance to play with it until this week's Creative Wednesday.

The stamp set contains little round and round-scalloped sentiments that's cute for any occasions or when you are in a rush with putting a quick card together.

Get the punch and stamp set bundle for 15% off! and get into making quick and simple cards.

I took it a step further with embossing the texture of trees into the Kraft card stock and then debossing the clouds into the Whisper White card stock.

Spring is in the Air promotion: Remember the spring bundle on the A Round Array stamp set and coorindating punch. Spring Surprise Bundle (Stamp set and 7/8" scallop punch) 133899 $29.95

15% off as a bundle!
