Looking for a friendship card? Ready for lots of layers? It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!
This week, the talented Joanne has a very versatile sketch for us. I love that you can keep this sketch relatively clean, or that you can add a layered focal point. I went all out and layered flowers and leaves. I hope you enjoy today’s card.

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
Stampin’ Up!® has so many wonderful floral sets, sometimes it’s hard to decide which one to use. I have been wanting to ink up the Beautiful Promenade set from the Annual Catalog for a long time. I was sold on it from the moment I saw Shelli demonstrate it. But other sets just kept finding their way to my table…especially as we entered the Holiday Catalog season. (Let’s face it – no one does Christmas better than Stampin’ Up!) After the holidays, the Occasions catalog made its appearance, and I just HAD to play with the awesome new goodies. Well, Beautiful Promenade…today is your day!!!
The flowers were inked in Grapefruit Grove. I used a Sponge Dauber to add the Daffodil Delight centers. All of the foliage was die cut using the Beautiful Layers thinlits, as was the Whisper White geometric doily.
I stamped a few Coastal Cabana triangles on the Smoky Slate designer paper to add a touch of color, and then I heat embossed sections with Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder® to add some texture and shine.
The sentiment was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Coastal Cabana/Granny Apple Green 3/8″ Reversible Ribbon is a perfect accent, as is the cut out border. It’s part of the Beautiful Layers thinlits collection, which comes with the Beautiful Promenade bundle.

Ann, your card is fantastic! I love the gorgeous flowers, but that amazing background steals the show! Just WOW! I love the embossing you used! Have a great weekend, My Friend! XX
So pretty! I love the blooms and of course the SHIMMER!
Those flowers are beautiful Ann but the background is very impressive; the stamping and heat embossing really elevate the rather plain DSP into something special. Gorgeous!
Love the shimmer background you created and all that green is just perfect! Beautiful card!
Wow, this is amazing! I love the flower, but was even more intrigued by that awesome background!
Ann, another stunning card. I love the stamped triangles on the base layer, they provide a wonderful background to your beautiful flowers. I also love how the sponging in the middle of the flowers highlights them and really makes them pop. Hope you having a fabulous week
hugs

Ann,
This is mind blowing the way you created the background. Totally AWESOME!!!! Love the colors and all these details are truly a treasure to keep for future cards. Thanks so much for sharing. Hugs
WOW! This is such a stunning card with great colors, a hint of shimmer and that creative background! Love it!
I can’t believe all the clever elements you added to this card to make it the stunning creation that it is. It’s inspiring, and I can’t wait to dust off my Beautiful Promenade and play with it.
OMGosh, Ann… you have showcased this stamp set to perfection! Absolutely LOVE your color choices, layering and texture details!! Already pinned to share with others as well as a fantastic reminder for CASE’ing!! Well done, my friend!
