I have a quick and simple card for you today. The star of the show is the fun, “floating” frame, a tidy fit for this week’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge (MOJO337).
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- My favorite trick with the Stampin’ Up! Squares Collection Framelits Dies is to make frames.
- I flip the finished frame over before adhering to hide any traces of embossing from the die.
- Popping the frame up with bits of Stampin’ Dimensionals creates a pretty shadow effect for the black heat embossed stem and leaves (Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Hello, a Hostess Rewards exclusive).
- Uber easy! The Secret Garden Framelits Die set has a coordinating die to crop the stem precisely. No snipping required.
- Sweet Sorbet Designer Series Paper (FREE with a $50 product order during Sale-A-Bration) provides the splashy scallop pattern as well as the yummy floral for the envelope liner.

Thanks, Wanda. I love getting out of the box with color. I thought black looked modern . . . especially with the patent leather finish of heat embossing.
Mary, This is so pretty. I love this, I love the colors, and the simplicity of this pretty card. Happy stamping. Ellen Hinds
Who would have thought to use black as the stamped branch? MARY FISH! Great card!
Gorgeous card and envelope.
So fabulous, Mary!
Fabulous card, Mary! I love the pop of black.
Mary, this dies are really great to make frames and, like Kadie said, the circle dies also work fabulously.
Another beautiful Spring card, so far I’ve seen flowers only on cards, it’s still so darn cold up here, lets hope that Ms. Mother Nature soon gives all of us a much needed brake.
Lovely card. Great ideas. Thanks for sharing.
Great colour combo and love the black accents.
Great card and love the colors!
WOW! This is so different and very striking!! I really like it A LOT! The frame is perfect for the leaf that has an actual sentiment within the leaves! Very clever Mary!! Love it!! 🙂

Making frames from the square framelits is FUN…….Give it a try with the circle framelits and you will FLIP over the results. Thanks for sharing this fresh looking card with us.
Very striking. The black pops so much. I must try this window frame look soon. 🙂
