The new Occasions catalog is out and everyone is excited about all the new products, but let’s not forget about all the wonderful products in the Annual catalog.

Today I’m sharing a card designed by my extremely talented team member, Debbie Catlett. She used products from the Annual catalog to create this gorgeous card. Since there is no sentiment on the front, it’s perfect for many occasions: Valentine’s Day, wedding, Mother’s Day, or just to show someone you love them. It’s great for males and females alike.

Debbie shared this as a Make & Take at our December team meeting.

Here are a couple of tips:

1. Anytime you are using an embossing folder, do all of your cutting and stamping first. (There are some techniques that have you emboss first, but that’s another post.) We punched the corners of the Whisper White panel and punched the hearts before embossing them.
2. We wrapped two pieces of the ribbon around the front of the embossed Whisper White panel, adhering them on the back with Fast Fuse. Then we tied the Linen Thread around the intersection to cinch up the ribbon and create the big bow.
3. We put the tiny pearls inside each circle of the embossed design that was large enough.

Here’s what she used:

Thanks for topping by today, and Sweet Stamping!
