Happy Bee Day - Stampin' Up! Choose Happy

   Since some Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper is on sale through the end of August I was looking through the ones I have on hand and realized that I hadn't used the the carryover Bright & Beautiful DSP in quite some time.  I love that this paper has all the great colors that were introduced or reintroduced in the 2023-2024 annual catalog and it's still available and right now at a discount.  If you're a fan of these colors then you might want to add a pack onto your August order!  I used it as the basis for this design which was my customer thank you card for all who ordered from me in July.


 Isn't this sweet??  I started with a Blueberry Bushel card base and then took strips of the Bright & Beautiful DSP and staggered them across the card front.  They are give or take a half in wide and I just trimmed some shorter than others.  A great way to use up thin scraps and not have to choose to show off just one or 2 designs!  I saw another demo Lou Kitzelman do this and knew I had to give it try!

  After I got all my strips layered I cut a Berry Burst frame using 2 of the Stylish Shapes dies.  The sweet bumblebee From the Choose Happy set is stamped on Basic White and colored in and the frame is added over the top.  

  Since the Choose Happy set has mix and match sentiments I put these together for a cute punny greeting to go with the bee.  The end is flagged on the sentiment strip and I added a Lemon Lolly baker's twine bow.  The finishing touch are a few Tinsel Gems in Berry Burst.

  So check out that sale DSP in my Online Store and order a pack today!  All of the other supplies used to make this card can also be purchased in my ONLINE STORE.

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
