Colorful Seasons

The beautiful ornamental plum trees in my yard inspired this card. They are one of my favorite things to watch as spring comes to our part of California, because they get these beautiful pink blossoms.  They only stick around for about 2 weeks and then they are gone and replaced with purplish leaves! (Is purplish even a word?)


I used the Colorful Seasons stamp set and Seasonal Layers dies for this simple card that has a watercolor paper background with a watercolor wash in Powder Pink.


The cardstock for the card base is Fresh Fig.  These are In Colors that will be retiring at the end of May, so be sure to stock up if you want these in your collection! I thought the Artisan Pearls were a beautiful detail to finish off the card.

Clear Case Marker Inserts **Updated for 2023-2024**

How do you store your Stampin' Write Markers? I store mine in Standard Stamp Cases which lie flat on my shelf to avoid ink from collecting on only one side or the other if I were to store them standing up. Because I love things to be organized (notice I didn't say I always have time to KEEP them organized!), I took it a step further and used the stamp case inserts inserts which Stampin' Up provides to their demonstrators and customized them for each color family.  AND I want to share these inserts with you! Feel free to click on the links below for a free printable PDF.  After printing the document, simply use a paper trimmer to trim around the edges and they should fit perfectly in the front and spine of a Standard Stamp Case.  Enjoy!

Tropical Chic Thank You

I love the colors on this card. They are so soft and pretty.  I CASE'd this from two cards I saw in the annual catalog. I love the dimension from of the square palm leaf die, and the combination of the die cut stamped images and die cut cardstock adds so much texture to this card. C ard Base : 8.5" X 5.5", scored at 4.25" Bottom Layer DSP : 3.75" X 5"  DSP behind die cut square : 2.75" X 2.75" Square for square die cut : 3.25" X 3.25" Strip for Sentiment: .75" X 4"  For a video tutorial click on the link below: Products Used :   Tropical Chic Clear-Mount Bundle 148399   Tropical Escape DSP 146916   Blushing Bride Cardstock 131198   Blushing Bride Classic Stampin' Pad 147100   Tranquil Tide  Cardstock 144246   Tranquil Tide Classic Stampin' Pad 147146 Memento Ink 132708   ...
