Good morning stampers! It’s April 30th, and it’s a beautiful spring day – perfect for gardening and dog walking. I’m reasonably certain that Ginny will be sunning herself in the backyard at some point. It is perfect golden retriever weather. Before we head outside, check out this pretty card that has lots of shine to it. Kelly Pulham combined Falling Flowers, Celebrate You, and a Fantastic Layout to create a stunning card.
Kelly used the very pretty Bundle of Love Designer Series Paper on the bottom half of the card, adding a bit of 1/8″ gold ribbon for the centre line. Embossing the flowers from Falling Flowers, die cutting them with the May Flowers Framelits and then popping them up with Stampin’ Dimensionals adds to the visual pop of the card.
Part of what I really like about this card is the different layout. The Celebrate You Thinlits aren’t available until June 1st, but I know that many of you already have them courtesy of Sale-a-Bration rewards. The colour and placement of the die cuts really make an impact on this card. Did you notice the coloured rhinestones? Create these by colouring rhinestones with your Stampin’ Blend markers. Seriously. It’s that easy to create coloured elements that match your card.

I’ve been in stamping and planning mode all morning. It’s time to take a break and head outside with the pooch! We’re heading to the post office, where people always pat her on the head. It’s a dog’s life. Happy Stamping!
