ICS Blog Hop...Butterfly Gala
December 08, 2020
Welcome to the Inspire, Create, Share Blog Hop. This month the theme is Thankfully Yours. We can all use thank you cards, right? I hope you won't be disappointed but the only thing I am using from the Butterfly Gala set is one of the sentiments. My idea was to share a quick and easy card and also give you a little sneak peek of what's coming in January.
This thank you note uses the DSP and a sticker from the Most Wonderful Time Product Medley. The card base is 4-1/4" x 11" scored at 5-1/2". The Real Red layer is 3-1/4" x 4" and the DSP is 3" x 3-7/8". The DSP is then cut to 3 strips measuring 1" x 3-7/8". The sentiment is from the Butterfly Gala set stamped on Whisper White CS and cut out using the Stitched Rectangle dies. The Whisper White layer is 4" x 5-1/4" embossed using the Tasteful Textile 3-D embossing folder. Love the Real Red Sheer ribbon!
This one uses the Ornate Garden Specialty DSP found in the 2020-21 Annual Catalog. Love this fresh floral with Early Espresso and the super cute Gingham Bumblebee ribbon.
The next cards all use the Flower & Field DSP. Where do you find this DSP? This DSP will be available during Sale-A-Bration. This year Sale-A-Bration is a little different. There will actually be 2 Sale-A-Brations! Double the fun and free gifts! The first Sale-A-Bration period is January & February 2021 and this lovely paper is one of the free gifts with a $50 purchase. This is one of those packs of paper that I love both sides of the paper. There are fun floral designs on one side and the other more classic patterns like polka dots, stripes, chevrons.
Don't you love the florals and the polka dots? The colors in the Flower & Field DSP pack include Basic Black, Bumblebee, Cherry Cobbler, Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green, Just Jade, Misty Moonlight, Petal Pink, Pool Party, Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie, Shaded Spruce and So Saffron. Lots of beautiful colors that all play well with each other.
I love this color combination of Basic Black and Pool Party. So fresh and happy!
Simple thank you cards that spotlight the beautiful patterned paper. These cards come together quickly, the hardest part is deciding which one to use and that is a great problem to have.
