Today’s project is a lovely floral card that features the Fabulous Florets and Summer Silhouettes stamp sets from Stampin’ Up! I saw this card design on Pinterest, and knew I just had to CASE (copy and share everything) it!
I changed the orientation and the sentiment, but everything else on the front of the card is exactly as Sandi MacIver designed it to be. I just loved her choice of colors, and the beauty achieved by the resist technique paired with the layered panels. Sandi has a great video tutorial that shows exactly how to create this card. She gives wonderful step by step instructions about how to achieve all the techniques in this project. I have provided a link for her video tutorial at the bottom of this post after the supply list. If you are interested in the details of how to create this card, I would definitely recommend watching Sandi’s video.
I just love the “Triple Time” layered panel technique of this card. It gives an added element of interest to the card design. Please leave me a comment to tell me what you think about it. During the month of April, I will be doing a drawing each Sunday. One lucky winner will receive one of the featured products from Sale-a-bration.

I needed to stock up on some extra thank you cards, so I chose the “Thanks So Much” greeting from simply sketched for my card today. I also decided to stamp my envelope and add some extra design elements to the inside of my card. You know me, I don’t like to leave the inside of my card “naked.”
I don’t normally re-create the work of someone else almost exactly, but I just loved the design of this one. There wasn’t much I wanted to change. As we head into spring, my dogwood trees and azaleas are starting to bloom. This card reminds me of the beauty of this season. I hope you have enjoyed this lovely card too! If so, I hope you will pin it to Pinterest for me. If you scroll to the bottom of this post, you will find a complete list of supplies used to make today’s project, including the dimensions for the card stock cuts. Below the supply list, you will find a “pin it” button. I would appreciate your help in spreading the word about my work.

Hi Heather, just wanted to let you know I CASE’d your card here (it was so beautiful I couldn’t change a thing about it!!), and posted it on my blog. I did link it back to you and Sandi MacIver, to give credit where it is due. You both did an amazing job with this card and I had a great time making it. I love your blog too…spent MANY hours going through it, and have it now marked as a “favorite”. Thank you, thank you for all your inspiration! :0)

This design is incredible! You obviously know how to keep
a reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost
moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Wonderful job.
I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented
it. Too cool!
