Step it up Thursday in a patriotic way and with the Pansy Patch paper

Step it Up day is a fun day for me.  First off is the template for the week.

Next is the simple card I made using the Pansy Petal suite.

I stepped up the first card, by...,.

1. Creating a background for my designer paper strips.

2. Creating a background for my horisontal strip.

3. Popping up the Happy Birthday with dimensionals..

4. Adding a small pansy cut from the designer paper.

r

And here's how I stepped up the card once again.

1. I added an embossed layer of card stock on top of the card base.

2. I layered a second color card stock behind the designer paper strips.

3. I added an additional layer behind the horizontal strip.

4. I added a second pansy as an accent.

Which of the above 3 cards is your favorite?

Here is how I stepped up my patriotic cards.

1. I added a Paper Pumpkin Batter Up card as the base.

2. I changed the colors of the strips, one is the envelope flap from the Batter Up kit.

3. I placed the thanks on one of the vertical strips.

4. I wove the horizontal strip through the other strips and added some stars to the strip.

 

Finally, 

1. I cut apart the paper pumpkin card and mounted the front on some Night of Navy card stock.  

2. I also backed the 3 strips on the same card stock.

3. Lastly I added my saying to the horizontal strip.

                                          

I loved this template.

Tomorrow, I will put together the card of the week, the Opposite card.  Come watch on the Facebook Live at 10:30 or at the Zoom meeting at 6:30.

Till then,

Happy Stamping,

What is it Wednesday-Pansy Petal Suite

Today I am sharing with you all the different parts of the Pansy Petal Suite.  There are .....

Pansy Patch stamp set of 23 photopolymer stamps for $25 

Pansy die set which includes 21 dies for $32

or the bundle for $51.25

Pansy Petals designer series papers and 

Bunblebee trinkets.

In the video below I showed how to use the stamps and the dies.  These are the cards I ended up making after the video was over.  Notice the photo of an actual pansy that I used as a guide to choose the colors for making these cards.

 This card used the layering stamps to make both the pansies. I think I got a pretty good match with the photo and the stamped image.  What do you think?

This card used the dies to make all the parts of the pansy and the bud.  They go together easily.

Another good match.
