The flower on today’s Stylish Stems birthday card is so striking against white. Stylish Stems Framelits Dies create such beautiful flowers. Watch a Stampin’ Up! video demonstration here.

STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- A strip of Gold Foil creates a rich look when layered over the Elegant Eggplant A2 (4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″) card base.
- The bold, beautiful flower and leaves are ALL cut using the Stylish Stems Framelits Dies (Elegant Eggplant, Wisteria Wonder, Pear Pizzazz and Old Olive card stock).
- The sentiment (love this font), from Best Birds stamp set, is heat embossed in Gold Embossing Powder.
- Another sentiment from Best Birds is stamped in Elegant Eggplant on the inside.
- With just a little card stock and Gold Foil, the envelope gets a touch of elegance, too.

Your card is very elegant, love the color and how simple it is. I will b trying your creation.. thank you for shearing
Beautiful card! Question. If the base is the elegant eggplant, how did you handle the whisper white? Was it wrapped around the entire base or simply cut and placed up to the edge?
Whisper White was layered over the Eggplant base and the gold foil. Hope this helps, Jennifer M.!
Love this card. It is very elegant.
Superbe carte, j’adore, merci à toi.

Mary, Love, love your cards and I am loving this set! Beautiful colors in this card. Thank you for all your wonderful ideas!! AND a belated thank you for my bandit gifts the past 2 months. I was gone for a month and came home to a remodeled kitchen and lots of dust and work so have been behind in my thanks to you! You are the best!
I can relate to all your dust. You are very welcome for the goodies.
Another great card for me to CASE for all my friends who DEMAND a purple card. This is simply gorgeous!
Mary, this is Elegant, I love those colors together. In fact just yesterday I was trying to chose a design for a purple and lighter Wisteria for a card. Here is the perfect combo.
Thank you
I love this card, Mary! I almost never use purple and this makes me want to go and create a card using some purple!
I just love the simplicity of this card, the colors you used makes it really beautiful.
So clean, simple, and beautiful! Love it!
I always think of two words when I see your cards, classic elegance. This card is gorgeous in its simplicity. It’s not fussy or overdone. Awesome project.
Thanks, Robbye. That’s what I shoot for. This card was created by my Stampin’ Pretty Design Team – Michelle & Rosanne do a beautiful job with “classic elegance,” too!
Great card. I like the elegant eggplant and gold.
Fantastic card my friend. LOVE the look of the Elegant Eggplant on this card.
Love the strip of gold peeking out. Just perfect!
🙂
This card is stunning!
