Love You to Pieces Bundle for GDP

Today I’m sharing a fun card I made for this week’s Global Design Project sketch. I had two ideas for the sketch – if you’d like to see my first project (which I shared Monday as part of the Design Team) with this sketch, you can click here. Monday’s card was sweet and pretty – today’s card is bright and fun. Here’s the card I’m excited to share with you today:

And here’s the banner for this week’s Global Design Project sketch challenge that inspired my card:

Tips, Tricks and Reminders

• Love You to Pieces. The Love You to Pieces Bundle includes two new Stampin’ Up! products: the Love You to Pieces stamp set and the coordinating Puzzle Pieces Thinlits Dies. I only used the stamp set for today’s project – an explanation is provided below. Here’s a look at the Love You to Pieces bundle: I have two notes to share about the Love You to Pieces – (1) The large puzzle piece cuts out the solid-colored puzzle pieces that say “Love you” and “to pieces,” but it doesn’t fit the outline of a puzzle piece that I used on my project. I realized it after I colored my puzzle pieces, but I was too excited about my idea for this card to let it go. I used my electronic cutter to cut these pieces. (2) You are going to love the puzzle pieces and sentiment such that you reach for them every time you make a project. I wasn’t expecting to love them as much as I do. I promise – you will love them! <3
• Stampin’ Blends. I’m loving the new Stampin’ Blends! If you don’t have all of them yet, you should look into it. 🙂 I stamped the large puzzle pieces with Tuxedo Black Memento ink on Thick Whisper White and colored them with a mix of the Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends and Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends. It’s SO EASY to color with a smooth, streak-free appearance. Love! All of the Stampin’ Blends are in stock right now – here are the new colors:
• Unexpected Color Combination. I didn’t expect these colors to come together as wonderfully as they did – and I love them. Cherry Cobbler, Poppy Parade and Balmy Blue make for a fun mix of reds and blues. If you like this combination as much as I do, please save this:
