Recipe:
  • The base is an 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 piece of Cherry Cobbler, scored at 4 1/4.
  • The Pacific Point layer is 5 1/4 x 4.
  • The Gray Granite layer is 5 x 3 3/4, and is stamped with images from Geared Up Garage with Gray Granite ink.

Waterfront, Heirloom Dies & Pressed Petals Washi Tape
At our last meeting, my very dedicated, and supportive Hostess Club ladies learned how to make beautiful flowers with the Pressed Petals Washi Tape, and how to use the Heirloom Frames Dies & the coordinating 3-D Embossing Folders. 
Recipe:
  • The base is an 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 piece of Crumb Cake, scored at 4 1/4.
  • The Merry Merlot layer is 5 1/4 x 4.
  • The Blushing Bride layer is 5 x 3 3/4, and is stamped with the words and a background stamp from Waterfront with Merry Merlot ink.  Then it is dry embossed with the Dynamic Subtle embossing folder.
  • The Very Vanilla oval or rectangle is cut out with the Heirloom die and dry embossed with the Heirloom embossing folder.
  • The flowers are made by adhering the Pressed Petals Washi Tape to a 1/2" circle.  Faceted Gold Gems are added to the centers of each flower. (I used my Take Your Pick tool to remove the petals from the roll.  Boy, it sure made the process so easy, just sayin').
  • All done, and remember to decorate your envelope.

Fanciful Fragrance
To CASE (Copy And Share Everything) is a compliment in my stamping world, so that is exactly what I did.  Well, kinda-sorta.  You will see a version of this card on page 112 of the 2019-20 catalog by Stampin' Up!  I don't know who to give credit to, but I'm thinking it is the Design Team at Stampin' Up!  Thank you so much.
Recipe:
  • The base is an 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 piece of Garden Green, scored at 4 1/4.
  • The Pear Pizzazz layer is 5 1/4 x 3 7/8, and the background is made by stamping an image from Fanciful Fragance with Pear Pizzazz ink.
  • The Soft Suede layer is 4 x 3.
  • The Very Vanilla layer on which my focal point is stamped with Soft Suede ink is 3 7/8 x 2 7/8. 
  • The Gold Foil layer is 3 5/8 x 7/8, and the Very Vanilla layer on which the words are stamped with Soft Suede ink is 3 1/2 x 5/8.  Both are punched with the Banner Triple Punch.  This combination is popped up with dimensionals.
