Today's share is a couple of similar "thank you" cards made using the Stitched All Around stamp set (and matching Stitched Labels framelits), and the beautiful Share What You Love Designer Series Paper.

I've used black accents on my first card, to complement the black leaves on the patterned paper.  It's a very simple card, that lets the glorious paper do all the talking:



For my second card, I changed the orientation from portrait to landscape, and incorporated a bit of white and Crumb Cake:

One of my (rather numerous) "must haves" from the new Stampin' Up! catalogue was the Follow Your Dreams stamp set, bundled with the co-ordinating Chase Your Dreams framelits.  Love, love, love!

As a starting point, I decided to loosely CASE the pink card sample on p. 54 of the catalogue.  My card morphed into something a bit different, using several stamp sets and different embellishments.  I'm very pleased with how it turned out; a special card for a beautiful 17-year-old.




Here are a couple of close-ups of some details on the card.  Firstly, the panel I embossed with the new Subtle embossing folder:



,,, and a couple of feathers die-cut from vellum, anchored by some new Lemon Lime Twist ruffled ribbon:



I hope I've inspired you to create something with these lovely new products.  I am loving the new purples in our revamped colour range, too.  Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape will be getting a good workout in my craft room!
