Finishing Up Friday – Splendid Day Suite

This week’s Finishing Up Friday uses leftover items from this recent Card & (Your) Cuppa project.

Today’s card is inspired by the project on Page 64 of the July-December Mini Catalogue.

It uses Petal Pink, Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake and Basic White.

Both the Stamp Set and Die Bundle, and the Splendid Day Specialty DSP are from the Splendid Day Suite.

I have stamped leaf images in my usual diagonal pattern across the project using Petal Pink and second generation stamping.

Then the sentiment is stamped and cut out using the Splendid Stems Dies.

A length of coordinating Petal Pink Soft Polyester Ribbon is stuck to the project.

Next, the pre-cut leaves, also from the Splendid Stems Dies are attached. The sentiment is then raised up on Dimensionals.

Finally a tiny bee, cut out from the DSP is added. This provides the project with a touch of sparkle.

Which pre-made items are you going to use from your desk?

Last Week’s Card & (Your) Cuppa – Splendid Day Suite Collection

Last week’s Card & (Your) Cuppa project used items from the Splendid Day Suite Collection.

This fabulous new collection is in the July-December Mini Catalogue and contains a Stamp Set and Die Bundle, Specialty DSP, Ribbon and Embellishments.

For this project, I’ve used all of the items in the Suite, except the embellishments.

My colour combination of Soft Sea Foam, Fresh Freesia and Basic White is taken from the DSP.

This DSP is really difficult to photograph, so you’ll have to trust me when I say that it is simply gorgeous in the flesh.

Strips of the Specialty DSP create the background, with the foil side of some sheets and the non-shiny side for the others.

In the class packs there were strips from three sheets of the DSP. Even with this small number of sides to choose from, it was difficult to decide which pieces to use and where!

The strips were then joined by shapes cut using the coordinating Splendid Stems Dies from the Suite.

A length of the gorgeous Seam Binding Ribbon sits behind the sentiment.

The sentiment is from the Splendid Thoughts Stamp Set and cut out using the Lasting Label Punch. This punch is not part of the set!

Using Dimensionals, the sentiment is raised up to give some extra depth.
