Believe You Can Host Set Smooth Sailing card

Today’s card is really simple, even though it may look like there’s a lot going on. The background is a piece of the Come Sail Away Designer Series Paper (DSP) that is multiple designs together on one sheet, so that adds a lot to the overall look. The sentiment is from the Believe You Can host stamp set (only available with Stampin’ Rewards on an order of $150 or more) and it’s stamped directly onto the DSP layer. The additional pieces are cut from Soft Suede cardstock using the Smooth Sailing Dies.

A Little Lace Bundle Happy for You Card

Today’s card was a snap to make. I used the new A Little Lace bundle (A Little Lace stamp set and Stitched Lace Dies) to create this pretty, lacy So Happy for You card in Rococo Rose and Very Vanilla.

Before I show you the card, I want to make sure you know about the new 3D Embossing Folder Plate. The new 3D Embossing Folders aren’t as thick as the older Dynamic Embossing Folders (they use up less storage space!) and this new plate enables you to get the full effect from them. It’s thicker than the regular clear cutting plates that come with the Big Shot.
