Friendly Silhouettes Dies - Stampin' Up! 2019

Today's card features the dies from the Friendly Silhouettes Dies.  It co-ordinates with the Friend Like You stamp set and is available at a 10% discount when purchasing them as a bundle.

I was using a beautiful card by Marita's Bastelzimmer as my inspiration.  I was attempting to simply it by using some retired Designer Series Paper (High Tide).  Although I did succeed in simplifying the card, I am not totally happy with it.  So I will think on this a bit more and see if I can made it appear less two dimensional and  plain.

I did add some Wink of Stella to the cat tails for a bit of shimmer.  Sentiment is from Colourful Seasons.

The inside is stamped with the cat tails from the Friends Like You stamp set.

This really is a beautiful die set that works well as a stand alone, but the stamp set does work beautifully with it.

Good Morning Magnolia - Stampin' Up! 2019

Good Morning Magnolia was the first set I purchased from the preorder items in the annual catalogue when it came out.  This is the second card I have made with it.  I was asked to make a white on white card and this is the result.  This is a 5.25 X 5.25 card.  I still had a few of the square envelopes we used to carry.  I miss those!  

Also used for this card:

Subtle Embossing Folder

Rhinestones

Silver Metallic Thread

Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon

Balmy Blue and Daffodil Delight Blends Markers
