Stampin' Up! Under the Sun

Hello Sunshine!

Sometimes the simplest supplies create the happiest cards!

For this cheerful design, I let Stampin' Up! Ephemera do all the work. The adorable flip-flops, sunshine, seashells, and starfish came together in minutes at create a fun, b

beachy scene that's perfect for sending a little sunshine to someone's mailbox.

I layered the ephemera pieces over a weathered wood background with bright yellow patterned paper to give the card a relaxed summer vibe.

This project is a nice reminder that you don't need complicated technique to make a card that's full of personality

Grab your favorite ephemera pack, mix and match the pieces, and you'll have a stack of cheerful cards ready to brighten someone's day!

Window Card

Here is a fun shadow box card, that looks difficult, but comes together very easily.

I used Under the Sun Mix & Match Ephemera to make this card pop.

The clear window sheet gives the illusion of objects floating in the window.

The Cloud background is from Silly Old Bear Designer Paper, and makes a beautiful backdrop for summer.
