Saying goodbye with Delicate Dahlias

 Hello Crafty Friends!

I have a card sample that I created for a friend and co-worker of mine that will be moving into a new chapter of life in her career. 

I didn't want to pass up the opportunity to use the Delicate Dahlias stamp set from the 2021 Sale-a-Bration brochure.  This exclusive stamp set can only be earned for FREE when you purchase $50 or more in current Stampin' UP! products.

This sweet card is not the typical card size. I made it larger so that our office folks can have plenty of room to sign it. The finished card size is A9 (5 1/2 x 8 1/2).

 I CASE-D (Copy And Share Everything) this card from Simone Bartrum that had a few project ideas she showed on Pinterest. I loved the layout she created for the card and I made my card similar with a few different elements and different colors: Polished Pink and Mint Macaron. 

Cardmaking Tips

• finished card size is 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" from Polished Pink cardstock.
• The Basic White mat measures 5" X 8"
• The Mint Macaron piece measures 4 1/4" x 7 7/8"
• Use the Scalloped Contour Die to trim the left edge of the Mint Macaron piece after stamping the Dahlia images using Mint Macaron ink.
• Cut 2- 1/4" strips of the Be Dazzling Specialty Paper to adhere toward the left edge of the Mint Macaron piece. (This is only available for FREE as part of the Sale-a-bration promotion).
• The Dahlias, small flowers, and leaves are stamped on Basic White cardstock and fussy cut to adhere to the card front with dimensionals.
• The last little touch is to place some 2021-2023 In-Color jewels as shown.
• The inside of the card is kept simple and the sentiment is from the Inspired Thoughts stamp set.
