Mix it up Monday!

Hello and welcome to today’s card, which is a fun and easy card to make mixing old and new products! By old, I mean using a trusty stamp set that has carried over into the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog. I chose to pair the Colorful Seasons stamp set with a piece of the Mosaic Mood DSP to create this fun card! Terracotta Tile is a beautiful color and I thought it would be perfect for the flowers on this card.

The base layer is this design from the Mosaic Mood DSP, cut at 4” x 5 ¼”:

You will only need a few supplies for the card front, a 6 ¼” piece of the Terracotta Tile Scalloped Linen Ribbon, use the largest circle from the Stitched Shapes Framelits to cut out of Terracotta Tile cardstock, and on Whisper White cardstock, stamp the tree limb in Early Espresso ink and the flowers in Terracotta Tile ink, cut out with the third largest Layering Circle Die and then stamp the sentiment in Early Espresso ink:

Adhere the ribbon across the middle of the DSP base layer, adhere the layer circles together, and then adhere the circle piece over the ribbon with dimensionals:

This is then adhered to a Terracotta Tile cardstock card base, cut at 5 ½” x 8 ½”, and scored at 4 ¼”. I decided to add three of the copper Designer Elements on the ribbon just to add a little something to the card:

The inside is on Whisper White cardstock, cut at 4” x 5 ¼”, the sentiment is stamped in Early Espresso ink, the flowers are stamped in Terracotta Tile ink and the stamen are stamped in Early Espresso ink:

This is such a simple card layout, you can use any DSP and any stamp set! Sometimes I forget about the “tried and true carry over” stamps that can easily be combined with the new products! It’s also great to have a simple layout to go to for when you are limited on time!

I am an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator located in Norfolk, Virginia and was first introduced to Stampin' Up! in 2004 when I attended my very first card class with my Mother-in-Law and I was immediately hooked! I first started out by making simple holiday cards and over the years as my stash has grown, so have my card and craft making skills. It has always warmed my heart when family and friends love my cards, but they actually keep them! In 2016 I decided to become a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and figured I could just do it for a hobby, but now I am going to branch out for all to world to see. So grab your favorite beverage, sit in your favorite chair, and join me as I share my cards and crafts with you! Enjoy!
