Happier Than Happy with Hello, Irresistible Designer Series Paper

Over the years, I’ve attended weddings, baby showers and birthday parties to celebrate special days for my friends and family. I love that I can make one-of-a-kind cards to celebrate these occasions. Last night, I celebrated Leigh Ann’s retirement from Cox. I’ve been there for 22 years, and I’ve worked with Leigh for many of her 25 years at the company. While I’m selfishly sad to see her go, I am so happy for her upcoming adventures. Here’s a photo we grabbed at last night’s celebration:

Brian and Leigh AnnHow about those smiles?! And here’s the Happy Retirement card I made for Leigh Ann’s special day:

Happier Than Happy, Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper, Stampin Up!, Brian King, retirement cardMy card features three gorgeous designs from the soon-to-be-released Hello, Irresistible 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. You can order these papers starting March 1. Yay! Here’s a look at SIX of the twelve double-sided designs in the pack of papers (every. page. is. gorgeous.):

One pattern from this pack of papers would be amazing – but three layers is even better! šŸ™‚ Here’s a closer look at the focal panel on this card (I want to make sure you can see the beautiful detail in the design):

Hello Irresistible Designer Series Paper, Stampin Up!, Brian KingThe papers are incredible, but you’re going to want ALL of the products int he suite. Here’s a look at the four products that create the Hello, Irresistible Suite Collection that will be available on March 1:

Hello, Irresistible Suite Collection, Stampin Up! 161154I was “going with” the “Hooray it’s your day” sentiment in the Irresistible Blooms stamp set, but it wasn’t expressing exactly what I wanted to express to Leigh Ann. I made a baby card last week with the Happier Than Happy stamp set (you can see that card here). I thought that would be a perfect sentiment for the front of my card. Whether I’m happy you have a new baby or happy you are retiring, it’s a great sentiment of support and love. Here’s a look at the Happier Than Happy Bundle:

Happier Than Happy Bundle, Stampin Up!, 158952I love the bright, sunny colors in the Hello, Irresistible 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. Each panel I showcase features Flirty Flamingo and Daffodil Delight. To temper the brightness a bit, I gave each panel a Basic White frame and added a Gray Granite base and sentiment. The warm gray really helped to tone down all the sweetness, turning these bright colors into a sophisticated mix on the card. If you like this mix of Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo and Gray Granite as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:
