Hey there! Happy Tuesday! Today I have a Z-fold card that I created with the new Pop of Paradise stamp set and Pop of Pink Specialty Designer Paper:
Flamingos! I've never been much of a flamingo fan, but the "Pop of Pink" product suite in the new Annual Catalog has really changed my mind!
If it's not stamped with Melon Mambo Classic ink, I've embossed with Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder! "A VERY special day" was gold embossed on Melon Mambo, punched twice with the Decorative Label Punch and then mounted on another full Basic Black Decorative Label. I flanked the phrase with a couple of rhinestones for a bit more bling!
There are a BUNCH of new framelits and thinlets dies to coordinate with new stamp sets in the new catalog, but unfortunately none to cut out the flamingo or the pineapple. HOWEVER, it was a snap to cut them both with my Paper Snips Scissors! I used little pieces of Pop of Pink paper for the background.
I embossed the center pineapple with gold, then stamped and cut out a "mask" from a Post-It Note to cover before stamping the pineapples to look like they are sitting behind the first one. The gold-embossed phrase is from Love & Affection, another new stamp set from the 2016/2017 Annual Catalog!
"happy birthday" is from Birthday Blossoms, a carry-over set from the current catalog. I love lining my envelopes with coordinating designer paper, don't you?
