I have pictures and links to my store for all 75 die sets on sale. The cardstock and inks are on pages 122 and 123.
Now, for today’s card, featuring the Eden’s Garden Stamp Set. I love the shading in this beautiful set of “Distinktive” stamps. Stampin’ Up! created these red rubber stamps to achieve this look by stamping in ink and onto paper in one application. So easy and fun!
I stamped the three images in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock. Then, I used plain, Layering Circles Dies for cutting the images, and scalloped, Layering Circles Dies for cutting the Silver Foil, used as backing.
The largest circle was glued flat, and the two smaller circles were attached with Dimensionals.
Distinktive Circles
I kept the background simple with Basic White Cardstock, cut with the largest Scalloped Contours Die, glued to a Basic Gray card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
Prior to gluing the scalloped layer, I stamped “Sending Hugs” in Memento Black Ink.
The sentiments are wonderful in the Eden’s Garden Stamp Set, so I stamped one on the inside also; “my heart is tied to yours…tug if you need anything.” And, I used a smaller Scalloped Contours Die for cutting the Basic White Cardstock, finishing it with another stamped sprig.
This led to decorating the envelope flap with Neutrals 6X6″ Designer Paper in Basic Gray, and my card is ready to send.
I was inspired by the Paper Players.

You ladies are so talented. So many gorgeous cards. Make lots more, please. I enjoy them so much

Beautiful Su! And so elegant. Thanks for joining us at The Paper Players this week!
Thank you, Laurie! I’m so glad you liked it!
I love the layout you chose for your card Su – it showcases this set perfectly! I also like how you combined the colours too – each one plays a role. Thanks for playing along with my colour challenge over at The Paper Players this week!
Thank you, Joanne! This was a fun challenge!
Oops — my fingers often go faster that my brain, so a part of my first comment makes no sense. I meant to say the first post I saw was with some cute little animal and you made it sound like he was telling the story.
That definitely was not clear in my first comment.
I started following your blog a few months ago. I’m not sure how I even found it, but the first one I saw I really liked how your wrote the story of the card. I think it was will some little and you made it sounds like they were telling the story. I liked that. I’m a Stampin’ Up! demo as well and was just getting started with a blog and writing the “story” was a bit daunting, so I thought I’d follow you and pick up on some tips. Today, I just want to let you know that you have inspired me a lot. Not just with your writing, but also with your card designs. Thank you! I’m glad I found you!
Hi Pat,
I understood what you meant, and I really appreciate you telling me. I’m so happy to be an inspiration for you, and wish you all the best! Thank you!
