The Stampin’ Up! Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper (DSP) is a luscious spring and summer mix of lemons and oranges. It’s the focal point on today’s simple sympathy card and landed on the list of My Favorite Things.
WHAT I LOVE! A touch of coordinating Mediterranean DSP on the envelope flap makes an instant statement on arrival. Adhere a 5 3/4 x 2 1/2 piece of DSP to the envelope flap (add adhesive to the envelope, not the DSP). Flip to the inside of the flap and carefully snip away the excess with Paper Snips.

Begin by burnishing the fold of the Basic White Thick card base with a Bone Folder.
Adhere the Designer Series Paper and Garden Green layers together and to the card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
Tie a bow of Linen Thread and adhere as shown with a Mini Glue Dot.
Use a Mini Misti to stamp the sentiment (Unbounded Love Stamp Set) in Garden Green Classic Ink onto the Basic White layer. Watch my 1 Minute to WOW video The Magic of the Mini MISTI for a quick demonstration here.
Crop with a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (Standard or Mini) and the coordinating Unbounded Love Die.
Adhere the sentiment to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
POP OF PERSONALITY! Embellish with a single Daffodil Delight Opal Round.
PERFECT POLISH! Adhere the 5 3/4 x 2 1/2 Designer Series Paper to the Basic White Medium envelope flap with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Add glue to the flap first, not the Designer Series Paper. Flip to the inside of the flap and carefully snip away the excess with Paper Snips.
