Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!

This month, we have a Tic Tac Toe theme. We really hope that you will be inspired by all the amazing creations the Pals are sharing with you! As you hop from blog to blog, we love reading your comments. Then, you will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

I’m excited to show you my card, created with Cheerful Daisies, for Mother’s Day. I began by using four Cheerful Daisies Dies to cut Basic White Cardstock. Three flowers are attached, but could easily be snipped apart. Three separate dies were used to create the top layer of petals when glued together.

Cheerful Daisies

Prior to gluing the petals, I colored the centers with a Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend, and the top petals with a Light Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend. I also colored the leaves with a Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blend. After gluing the flowers to the background, I lifted the top layer of petals for dimension.

The background is Hello Irresistible Designer Paper in a Soft Sea Foam pattern, cut with the third largest Deckled Rectangles Die. You’ll find this designer paper in Online Exclusives. I layered it on Basic White Cardstock, cut with the Largest Deckled Rectangles Die, and embossed with a Basics 3D Embossing Folder. The card base is Thick Basic White Cardstock, 8 1/2″ X 51/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

“Thinking of you” is from another new favorite from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog, the Wonderful Thoughts Bundle. The stamps have dies to make it look like the sentiments were fussy cut, and I love it! The similar set, Charming Sentiments, carried over, and now we have twice as many sentiments with die-cut borders.

I stamped the sentiment in Soft Sea Foam Ink, used its Wonderful Thoughts Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals.

For a little something extra, which fulfills the Tic Tac Toe requirement, I added three, Iridescent Pearls.

I used the third row down: Mother’s Day, Dry Embossing, and Pearls.

Thank you for visiting my blog. I appreciate you!

More inspiration awaits, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team. The Pals are very excited to show you what they’ve created! Then, please mark your calendars for our next blog hop on June 14th, when our theme will be showcasing the New 2023-2025 In Colors.

Until then, have fun in your craft space.
