The Hues of Happiness Designer Series Paper has been my favourite patterned paper from this Annual catalogue. And I’m so sad to see the whole suite is retiring! So before it’s gone for good I’m sharing one last card.
I’ve actually managed to use almost all the paper from this DSP pack. So for my colour combination I started with picking a design from what I have left. The rainbow design offers lots of options. But I went with Gorgeous Grape and Melon Mambo, with a little bit of Pear Pizzazz. Gorgeous Grape is the card base to help the DSP and other elements really pop.
I stamped the large flowers and sentiment using Gorgeous Grape ink. And for the smaller flowers I used Melon Mambo. The leaves are of course stamped with Pear Pizzazz. Then I cut them all out using the coordinating dies for the leaves and flowers. I used one of the Something Fancy dies for the sentiment.
I layered the flowers and leaves straight onto the DSP. If you want, you can play around with this a little bit and pop up a couple of the flowers with Stampin’ Dimensionals. With this card just the sentiment is popping up. Then to finish it off I added two of the large Rhinestone Basic Jewels.
While I’m sad that the Hues of Happiness DSP is retiring, I know it won’t last long! There’s lot of gorgeous paper coming in the new Annual catalogue that launches on Tuesday.
If you live in Canada and would like a copy of your own contact me. I’d be happy to send you one!
And don’t forget there’s still a few more days to get retiring products, or products that are increasing in price. Head over to my online shop before it’s too late!
