STAMPIN’ PRETTY STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL:
Create a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card base using the Stampin’ Trimmer and Thick Whisper White card stock.
Wrap Basic Black Solid Baker’s Twine around a 4 x 5 1/4 piece of Thick Whisper White card stock. Tie in a bow and adhere to card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Cut four Basic Black card stock squares using the 1 5/8″ square die from Layering Squares Framelits Dies and the Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine.
Crop the detailed leaf from Stitched Seasons Framelits Dies in Coastal Cabana, Lemon Lime Twist, Poppy Parade and Crushed Curry card stock. Adhere the leaves to the black squares using a Paper-Piercing Tool and tiny dabs of Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
Adhere squares with Stampin’ Dimensionals to card base.
Stamp greeting (Blended Seasons stamp set) in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on Thick Whisper White card stock. Trim to 2 5/8 x 1, leaving extra white space on the left side. Adhere to the card base over the twine with Stampin’ Dimensionals
For a pop of personality, adhere a Coastal Cabana Glitter Enamel Dot to the left of the greeting as well as to the right of the Poppy Parade leaf.

What a beautiful card! It would most certainly help make a person’s birthday even more special.
I can’t tell you how much your kind comments mean. Thanks for taking the time, Robbye!
Love this stylish and elegant card, these little leaves look so beautiful in those non-traditional colors, the bright enamel dots are a very sweet detail.
Cooler temperatures will arrive soon, I honestly can’t wait till the glory of Autumn makes its appearance.
Have a fabulous weekend.
