I used the Countryside Inn 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper, Countryside Blossoms Embossing Folder and the Timeless Arrangements Bundle to create today’s card. These products will be available on May 2 with the release of the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog!
The piece of Countryside Designer Series Paper that I used on the card front is the only piece of paper in the pack that lines up with the Countryside Blossoms Embossing Folder. It’s difficult to tell that this panel is embossed from the photo…hopefully you can see all of the texture!
I adhered the embossed panel to a mat in Night of Navy then wrapped Boho Blue Textured Ribbon around the panel and adhered the panel to the card front.
I sentiment label and one of the leafy images were die cut using the Timeless Arrangements Dies set. I used two sentiments from the Timeless Arrangements Stamp Set to stamp the sentiment onto the die cut sentiment label. I then adhered the leafy image to the back of the sentiment label and adhered the unit to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. A white Baker’s Twine bow was added to the upper left of the sentiment label using a Mini Glue Dot.
I stamped the simple flower image from the Timeless Arrangements Stamp Set using Night of Navy ink and used Boho Blue Stampin’ Dimensionals to color in the stamped images. The same flowers were stamped onto the envelolpe front and colored in as well. The inside panel was adhered to a Midnight Navy mat then adhered to the inside of the card.

A coordinating piece of designer series paper was adhered to the envelope flap and I trimmed away the excess paper away from the flap to finish off the envelope. This completes my card for today!
