Greetings from me and my Pals!
Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop! This month, the theme is “Sentiment as a focal point.” We really hope that you enjoy and will be inspired by them! As you hop from blog to blog, don’t forget to leave comments because we love hearing from you. You will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.
My choice of greeting is from the Merriest Moments stamp set found in the current mini catalog. It’s one of three display greetings perfect for focal points. I embossed it in gold over Evening Evergreen card stock to make the gold foil veins in the paper pop.
The beautiful Designer Series paper comes from Expressions in Ink in the 2021-22 Annual Catalog. It’s hands-down my favorite this year.
Gold foil accents from the Blackberry Beauty Ephemera pack peak out from behind the center piece. Three Gilded Gems finish the look.
I used more stamps from the set to decorate the inside, leaving room to write a little note.
Greetings used as focal points make it easy to create elegant cards.
More inspiration awaits, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team. The Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Then, please mark your calendars for our next blog hop on October 13th. Our theme will be Fantastic Fun Folds and 3D Projects when participants showcase fun fold cards or 3D items that will be great for any occasion. Until then, have fun in your craft space.
