Stampin' Up! just keeps making it easier to make elegant cards! In the Occasions 2012 Mini there is a package of cards called "Designer Cuts", and they fit this description perfectly:

These cards come 8 to a package, four each of the two different designs, with coordinating Blushing Bride envelopes included! At $9.95 a package, they are actually quite economically elegant!
Now, I have embellished these Designer Cuts quite a bit, with Blushing Bride Twitterpated Designer Paper, Blushing Bride 3/8" Pleated Satin Ribbon, Jumbo Pearls, Blushing Bride Cardstock to highlight the laser-cut designs, some Fashionable Hearts embossed hearts, and a bit of stamping from "P.S. I Love You" and "Grateful Greetings", but these are also quite pretty all by themselves. Check out page 9 of the Occasions Mini to see what I mean!
If you don't have an Occasions Mini (or a Sale-a-bration brochure, for that matter), email me with your address and I will pop those in the mail to you! You can also view them from the icons here on my blog or go to my Stampin' Up! website:
Sorry, no tutorial for these. They are pretty simple and the Designer Cuts make it easy to adapt for any occasion: wedding, bridal shower, Valentine's Day, & Mother's Day!
If you have any questions, you can always email me!
Until tomorrow, have a "Stampingrox!" Day!
