Lovely Thinking of You card

 Today’s card is a fun fold card featuring the now retired Whole Lotta Lovely DSP and the coordinating but also retired Lots of Love stamp set.

National Peach Day

 Happy National Peach Day and Happy birthday to my friend Kim who is a real peach of a friend.  I just used the now retired whole lotta lovely DSP from Stampin UP to make this card.  I fussy cut a peach from the DSP to add interest to the card.  The sentiment is from the now retired Fruit Basket stamp set.

So Many Shells

 The inspiration for this card came from a sample in last years Stampin Up annual catalog.  I ordered this So Many Shells stamp set late in the game and then it retired but it was perfect to use for a friends summer birthday. I really love how the two step stamping makes the shell look so realistic. I paired the stamp set with the no Whole Lotta Lovely DSP.

Lovely Fun Fold

Todays card is a fun  fold card featuring the now Retired Whole Lotta Lovely DSP from Stampin up. I added the sentiment from the now retired Thoughtful Branches stamp set.  The sentiment was added to an oval cut from the Stitched Shapes and matted with a scallop oval.  I then cut a flower out from the DSP to add even more beauty from the gorgeous DSP.

Pretty thinking of You

 Well the Christmas in July card posts are done for now I will continue to post more over the next few months. Today’s card is a stunning card that features the now retired Whole Lotta Lovely DSP from Stampin Up.  I added a strip of cardstock that was textured with the Layered Leaves Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder # 143704  and the sentiment is stamped using the now retired Lots of Love stamp set and the heart is from the now retired Sweet and Sassy Framelits.

Sending Love

 I have been celebrating my love of beautiful patterned paper all month long.  Today’s card uses the now retired Whole Lotta Lovely DSP from Stampin Up.  The sentiment and flower were stamped using the now retired coordinating Lots of Love stamp set.

Whole Lotta Happy

 I have been having a ball using the beautiful Stampin Up DSP old and new designs this month for my blog posts.  Today’s post starts with paper from the now retired Whole Lotta Lovely DSP. and I added the now Celebrations Duo embossing folder that comes to life by stamping the solid image from the coordinating Happy Celebrations (also retired) stamp set over the embossed image.

Whole Lotta Lovely Basket

 Today’s card features the soon to be retiring Whole Lotta Lovely DSP #144110 from Stampin Up and is the perfect card for Mothers Day.  For the card base I textured the background with the Basket Weave Textured Impressions Embossing Folder that was available during Stampin Up’s annual Sale-a-bration campaign. Good news the Basket Weave TIEF will return with the new 2018-2019 annual catalog starting on June 1st. The basket of flowers is from the retired Blossoming Basket stamp set.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter!  I love how cute this card turned out and really think the background paper from the Stampin Up Whole Lotta Lovely DSP collection #144110.  For the main panel I stamped the Happy  and the grass using the Happy Celebrations #143012 stamp set.   I then stamped the bunny using the image from the Basket Bunch retired Stampin Up set.  Surprisingly enough, I did not have an Easter stamp that would work with the rest of the card so I just free handed the sentiment and it looks great!  I hope your Easter basket is overflowing with chocolate!
