Hi Stamping Friends!
Did you happen to catch my LIVE Class today? It was filled with HAPPY! My presentation featured Pretty Perennials images in bright colors, combined with a pop of black from the True Love Designer Series Paper! The results were delightfully sweet cards that are sure to make you smile! If you want to make these cards with me, get the details below on how to earn a Pretty Perennials 5-Card LIVE Class Kit below!
Today, I'm sharing two sweet Pretty Perennials birthday cards that are so quick and adorable! But first, a couple of housekeeping notes:
Butterfly Bijou DSP Is Sold Out—This beautiful, limited-time Designer Series Paper was so popular that it completely sold out this week! Thankfully, I do have enough to complete all of the LIVE Class Kits that are going out on Monday! Yay! If you missed it, I recommend trying Artistry Blooms, Flowers For Every Season or Playful Patterns as colorful backgrounds for your butterflies. The good news is that the Butterfly Brilliance Bundle will continue to be available in the upcoming Annual Catalog!
Strawberry Builder Punch Availability Update—I know many of you have been very patiently waiting for the Strawberry Builder Punch to become available again. As of today, it looks like the arrival date has now been pushed back to the week of April 19. Hang on, friends!

Pretty Perennials Sweet Flower Trio Cards
I had so much fun creating these delightful Pretty Perennials cards! I want to give a shout-out to Dena Rekow, who is the Million-Dollar Achiever who helped design this stamp set! If you watch her videos, you'll know that she's a big fan of creating bright & cheery cards with a pop of black! I thought it would be perfect to combine the True Love Designer Series Paper with these images to provide the perfect pops of black! The results are magnificent!
Background Basics—I started by embossing a 5-1/4" x 4" piece of Basic White cardstock with the Dainty Diamonds Embossing Folder. I added a 5-1/4" x 2" pattern from True Love DSP across the middle, then mounted it onto a Magenta Madness cardstock. I created a foundation for the focal point with a 4-1/4" x 3-1/4" piece of Granny Apple Green, adhered a little off-set onto the card front.
Flower Trio—I stamped the "happy" Pretty Perennial image in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a 4" x 3" piece of Basic White, then I added the rest of the sentiment underneath it. I added three flower outline images in Magenta Madness ink, then stamped the solid two-step image in stamped-off Magenta Madness over the top. Next, I stamped the little pair of leaves in Granny Apple Green ink beside each flower.
Finishing Touches—I tied some of the black & white Playful Pets Trim twine around the layer, frayed the ends, then popped up the piece with Dimensionals. I finished by adding Magnenta Madness In Color Enamel Dots to the flower centers. Lovely!
Two Cool—The second version begins with a Subtle embossed textured background mounted onto a Bermuda Bay card base.
Flower Trio—This time I added Mango Melody 5-petal flowers around the sentiment, as well as some little Bermuda Bay dots. The flowers are topped with Bumblebee In Color Enamel Dots. Perfect!
