If you know someone who could use a little pick-me-up, how about this Forever Fern friendship card? It’s time to play at Festive Friday Challenges – home of the Inspo List!
For this week’s challenge, we are inspired by National Ice Cream Sandwich Day. At Festive Friday, you do not need to actually celebrate the occasion. Your goal is to simply use three or more items from the inspiration list on your project. I selected sweet sentiment, pink, brown, vanilla, circles and die cut from this week’s Inspo List. I hope you will join us in our challenge this week. I can’t wait to see what YOU create. And if you would like to celebrate with an ice cream sandwich, that’s all the better!

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
I had so much fun creating today’s card! I used a sketch from a previous Paper Players challenge, and added lots of little details, including a gold hoop. I used glue dots to attach it, simply placing them in areas which would be covered. While I tried a variety of ribbons, I decided to use the gold ribbon which is part of the Boho Indigo product medley (153132). I then topped it off with a gold twine bow, using the twine from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack. The gold ribbons coordinate so nicely with the gold laser cut leafy frond, which is used as a backdrop for the ribbons and cluster.
To add interest, the sentiment was stamped onto designer paper, and cut out with a Stitched Shapes die. Of course, I could not resist adding a few Champagne rhinestones.

This card has to be the most beautiful card I’ve seen in a long time. The colors and texture are amazing. I’m printing a picture of your card and am going to frame it and put it on a shelf in my craft room.

I’d love to be a fly on the wall when you create the flower cluster with the bow. It’s gorgeous.
Beautiful card with a delightful color palette!
Beautiful, as usual!

I LOVE the colors and all the “textile” textures you’ve implemented for this card. This is what I call an Ann-A-Mazing card!

Oh Ann you never cease to amaze me. Out of the box thinking and design extradionaire! And who would have considered using the rococo rose with the wood color and textures. I would like to case this card. This is just stunning.
