My team member Bobby sent me this amazing card last week.  I was seriously blown away!  She is super talented!!

Eden's Garden Bobby Save

She used the Sunflower dies to create a medallion for the main greeting.  I never knew it would double as a medallion; I love it so much!

Her background is created by adhering strips of the Ever Eden specialty designer paper (seen here) to a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of Evening Evergreen card stock.  This paper will be discontinued in early January; it's available only while supplies last. Notice the pretty gems; these are called Garden gems and can be seen here.  I'm surprised they're not sold out; they are gorgeous and a terrific value. They are also while supplies last. 

She die-cut two 'sunflowers' from Gold foil & Evening Evergreen card stock and adhered them together, offsetting them a bit. She used the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set for the main greeting, embossed in Gold embossing powder. 

~~~

Why did she send me a Congratulations card?  Well I had a wonderful year as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator!  I achieved top levels for Leadership, Team Building and Sales!  I'm most excited to achieve #29 overall in the United States.  Woo hoo!!!

    If you just stopped in from Bree's blog I'm sure you enjoyed her projects. She is uber creative!

    My first card features the Floating Technique. It gives the illusion that your paper is floating on the card.  

    Floating Technique Amazing Thanks Save

    I adhered random sizes of card stock strips onto a piece of Window Sheet and used our largest circle in the Layering Circles dies  to die-cut it out.  I've been making monochromatic cards lately and chose my favorite blue/green hues of Bermuda Bay, Pool Party & Coastal Cabana.  

    Floating technique Save

    Details:

    • This circle is added with Stampin' Dimensionals onto White CS that's been embossed with the Tasteful Textile embossing folder. 
    • The 'Thanks' is made with our Amazing Thanks dies from the January-June catalog. 
    • The 'Friend' greeting was fussy cut from the Special Moments stamp set.
    • Those pretty rhinestones are from a new release coming out in March called the Wave Collection.  Rhinestones in blues & greens!!

    I recently made a card with the Hello Ladybug using Magenta Madness with Black and wanted to try it out with Coastal Cabana too. I found out that our new Supple Shimmer specialty paper works great for wings! It's pretty & iridescent.

    It's also what I like to call Black & White with a 'pop' of color.  A bit of black on a card makes other colors 'show up' and be noticed. 

    This card is an easy fun fold.  Turn any basic card into a fun fold with these measurements: 

    • Card base 5 ½” X 8 ½”, score at 2 1/8” & 4 ¼”
    • White (X 2) 3 ½” X 4 ¾”
    • 3 ¾” X 5” Black

    The stamped images are all from the Hello Ladybug stamp set.  It's in a bundle with the punch at 10% off when purchased together.
