Have you seen the Peony Garden Suite of products?! They are absolutely gorgeous and are found in the 2020-2021 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog on pages 82-83. While the entire collection of stamps, dies, papers, and embellishments is fabulous, sometimes I think we forget that patterned paper can be used with other stamp sets than those in the suite. Today, I have created three cards using the Peony Garden patterned paper in the Stampin' Up! equivalent of the 2021 Pantone Colors of the year. So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

I love these little smash cards. It's a great fun fold card idea that is perfect for showing off patterned paper. We made them last night for Mystery Stamping and had a great time! If you haven't joined the Facebook Group and done Mystery Stamping, I hope you'll join us soon! We do Mystery Stamping every Tuesday night at 8:00 PM eastern except for the last Tuesday night of the month when we have a card class and game night. Ok, on y go! Let's get stamping.
9. Adhere the piece of 3 ¾” x 3 ¾” patterned paper to the upper left square of the piece of 8” x 8” cardstock. This should be on the inside as well. 10. Adhere the piece of 3 ¾” x 3 ¾” white or vanilla cardstock to the lower right square area. 11. Fold your 8” x 8” cardstock back into a 4” x 4” square so that the patterned paper is hidden on the inside. 12. Adhere one of the 4 ¼” x 4 ¼” pieces of cardstock to the front/top. 13. Adhere the piece of 4” x 4” patterned paper to the card front/top. 14.

Adhere the second piece of 4 ¼” x 4 ¼” cardstock to the bottom of the folded cardstock, over top of the ribbon. 16.

Celebrate Sunflowers Card DesignMy first sample uses the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set. I stamped the smaller sunflowers with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and colored it with Mango Melody, Daffodil Delight, Soft Suede, and Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends alcohol markers. I layered the images on some Plaid Tidings patterned paper, which is 15% off for the month of October. For the greeting, I only inked the word "Thanks" to make it shorter.
I love sending thank you notes! Apparently, I love sending thank you cards so much that I depleted my stash. I needed to get some in the mail quick, but when I went to grab a few, I found that my box was empty. Ack! Luckily, I had just gotten this absolutely scrumptious Artistry Blooms Designer Series Paper. With a little patterned paper, some cardstock, a stamp, a punch, and some sequins, I was able to whip up a handful of thank you cards in a jiffy. This is also great for those times when you realize you need to put a birthday card in the mail today. So, on y go! Let's get stamping.
