Story of Elegance

Friday is here.  Whoo Hoo!  My birthday was yesterday and  it was the first day of our Stampin’ Up! annual convention entitled On Stage.  Fortunately for me, it’s being held virtually this year so I get to enjoy all of the fun in the comfort of my craft studio.   So I will be in my element all day today and tomorrow as well.  Life. Is. GOOD!

Fall is one of my favorite times of the year, and I am celebrating it with today’s card created with our Welcoming Woods Stamp Set.

Here’s what I did.

A greeting card made with Stampin' Up! products

Welcoming Woods Season of Wonder

Look at the detail in these stamped trees.  It so life like.

A Closer Look

Elegance Made Easy 

To recreate this card,  use a vertical oriented card base (11″ x 4 1/4″) scored at 5 1/2″ made of Thick Basic White card stock.  Stamp the trees, leaves and grassy knoll onto a piece of Basic White card stock cut to 2 3/4″ x 5 1/4″ and blend the grass using a Blending Brush.

Stamp the sentiment in Early Expresso onto the stamped panel.

Cut a of Early  Expresso card stock to  2 3/4″ x 5 1/4″ and add to the card base.   Off set the stamped panel onto the Early Expresso panel.

Add Champagne Rhinestones Basic Jewels throughout the trees.


The leaves in the Greenery embossing folder reminded me of the leaves in the trees, so I used it to emboss the envelope flap to complete the project.
