Holding Out Hope for Spring

Gardner's are hopeful types and so are creative card makers!  That's why our hint of Spring in the Sweet Sorbet  floral DSP parading across this card and the Stampin' Up© Sale-A-Bration Petal Parade Stamp Set gets some good press this cold and frosty month.

Sweet Sorbet Petals and Pennants Card

Starting with two designs from Sweet Sorbet DSP (Sale-A-Bration at its best) we stamped, cut, and layered and ended with an In Color Boutique Detail adorning the Petal Parade floral.  Our color cue came from the DSP.  Who would have thought that Sahara Sand, Summer Starfruit, and Crisp Canteloupe would live so agreeably with Pistaccio Pudding?  The banners, which are the focal point of this really pleasing card, are easily and precisely cut with the Banners Framelits, layered and wrapped up with Gold Baker's Twine, then popped up with Dimensionals.  We can almost smell the roses!  All papers, inks, and accessories used in this card are from Stampin’ Up! ©
