Welcome to our May Coast to Coast Creators Blog Hop! We are all super-excited about our brand-new 2022-2023 Annual Catalogue, which you can see using the link (click on the photo of the catalogue) in the right side bar! We have a family of 5 new colours (our "In Color" items), which we are featuring in this month's blog hop! I have decided to make my card using Sweet Sorbet.
One of my new favourites in the new catalogue is the Sun Prints Suite Collection. The products can be purchased individually, as a bundle (stamps and dies), or as a collection (stamps/dies bundle, the gorgeous Sun Prints Designer Series Paper (DSP), and the Fern 3D embossing folder). Remember that you save some money when you buy the bundle or suite options.
I absolutely love the Sun Prints Designer Series Paper (see the bottom of this post), which is what prompted me to buy this collection. I used Pretty Prints, a coordinating DSP in several additional colours, because of this lovely Sweet Sorbet print. I used the Fern 3D embossing folder for the background.
I coloured our White 3/8" Glittered Organdy Ribbon with a Light Sweet Sorbet Stampin' Blends. Full directions for this card are below.
Here is the gorgeous Pretty Prints DSP package! |
