Hey there! Today I have a quick card that I created to use more of the Pretty Petals Designer Paper before it retires. I combined retiring, carrying-over, and Sneak Peek products to create this:

I started with a Kraft card stock base that I embossed with the Woodgrain folder. I adhered a piece of Pretty Petals Designer Paper, then added the punched greeting and a bow tied with Metallic Gold Baker's Twine.

"hello sweet friend" are all individual phrases from a sneak peek set from the new 2016/17 Annual Catalog called Thoughtful Banners. After stamping on Very Vanilla with Old Olive and Calypso Coral, I punched with the sneak peek Duet Banner punch. I punched two more Duet Banners from Kraft card stock scraps to frame the greeting label. After adding the greeting with Stampin' Dimensionals, I added a Gold Metallic Baker's Twine bow with a glue dot.

Inside I used the same inks to stamp a sentiment, blooms and leaves from the Birthday Blossoms set. The blooms coordinate well with the Calypso Coral blooms in the Pretty Petals paper.

Although some of the supplies used today are retiring, you can still order them from my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net
