Hi there! For today’s project, I had two things in mind; the TGIF Challenge, which is calling for “punches,” and the gorgeous Frosted Floral Designer Specialty Paper from the Holiday 2018 Catalog. It’s a “specialty” paper, because it’s printed on shimmery white paper. You have to see it in person to truly appreciate.

Frosted Floral Thank You
I decided to use a multi-colored floral print with flowers that I could fussy cut. My Stampin’ Up Paper Snips did a good job, and the three flowers were ready for some leaves. The Leaf Punch worked perfectly, punching leaves from a green print of Frosted Floral DSP.
The sentiment, “thank you for caring,” is from the Label Me Pretty stamp set. I used the 1 3/8″ Circle Punch, after stamping the sentiment in Tranquil Tide ink on Whisper White cardstock. The 1 1/2′” Circle Punch makes a perfect border, which I punched from another piece of the Frosted Floral DSP.
I chose Tranquil Tide cardstock for the card base, layered with a 4″ X 5 1/4″ piece of Whisper White cardstock, embossed with the Subtle Textured embossing folder.
Next, I used a Stitched Seasons die to cut the Frosted Floral frame. This is the same Frosted Floral DSP where I found my three flowers.
The flowers and sentiment were raised on dimensionals, and my “three punch” card is ready for the TGIF challenge.
Thank you for visiting today. If you click on the picture of the Frosted Floral DSP in my Product List, you can see all 12 of the fabulous prints.

Such a gorgeous card! I never much liked that color green, but I have a completely different opinion of it now! Thank you for sharing your design.
Absolutely gorgeous card Su! I love how you used punches to enhance the beautiful elements on this card. Thanks for playing with TGIFC this week.
Pretty card for the challenges, Su. Enjoy your day!
