Ornate Border Dies Archives - Libby Fens, Stampin' Up! Demonstrator

Happy Saturday!

Welcome to our Create with Connie and Mary Saturday blog hop! How are you these days?

Thanks for joining us! Our theme this week features travel.

Travel. travel. Really? Clearly this was set a while ago given our current pandemic! And, yes it was!

So, my card is about travel of course. Virtual travel.

I long to get away to see the tulips fields in Holland. I’d even settle for a trip to the Texas tulips fields. There are a couple of places near San Antonio….

Ok, back to my card….I stamped tulips in Melon Mambo and Poppy Parade from the Timeless Tulips stamp set. I also stamped the stunning green leaves in Call Me Clover.

I felt the strip of tulips needed a little something. I added a border from the Ornate Border Dies. (It’s from the Ornate Garden Garden Suite available in April.) Perfect addition!

The sentiment is perfect as the first day of Spring just occurred and Easter is just around the corner.

Thanks for stopping by. Stay crafty!

Please remember to support your favorite Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators. Many depend on classes and online orders. With our current situation, it has become extremely difficult to get the crafty word out through in home classes and support our home based businesses. Online orders are always welcomed and greatly appreciated!

Go forward to check out Debbie Henderson, and back to Mary Brown. I know they’ll have some great projects to inspire us!

Happy Wednesday!

I just received the Ornate Garden Suite of products that will be in the new catalog in June. However, for the month of April, you can get the products early!

I was inspired to play with some of these products. I combined old and new and a layout challenge from TGIF Challenges –

Here is how I combined them –

B E A U T I F L !!!!!!

This card was quite simple as well! I die cut the border of flowers along a strip of Basic Black. That panel was adhered to a Daffodil Card Base, adding the Designer Series Paper and then the sentiment. Done.

***Edited on March 22, 2020. A few days after posting this card, I got this –

THANKS TGIF!!! I am soo honored!
