cue the confetti!

Hey everybody, Happy Friday! I hope the first half of the first month of 2025 is going well for you. I’m delighted to share a DT inspiration project for Emily Moore Designs featuring the NEW Decorative Sentiment Dies and All The Happy Things stamp set. If you haven’t yet checked out these new products released on January 1st, you are in for a surprise… fun stuff, for sure! And to save you a few bucks, these two are available in the Decorative and Happy Bundle! And if you’re a new customer, don’t forget to use my code LESLIE10 for 10% off your order!

The double flap fun fold is one of my favorites and I thought it would make an excellent card for new grandparents, so that’s the direction I went, using a pink and purple color combo. I also used the Yay! Layered Word Die, Confetti Layered Stencils, Simon Hurley Silver Lining Lunar Paste and the Graduation & Retirement stamp set, all of which compliment these new products in a most awesome way.

I started by creating the background on CutCardStock Savoy Brilliant White Cotton cardstock using the Confetti Layered Stencils, Ranger picked raspberry and shaded lilac distress inks and a couple blending brushes, and Simon Hurley Silver Lining Lunar Paste and a spatula. While it was drying, I cut a flag, small heart and sentiment banner from Doodlebug Design Floral-Graph Rainbow Petite Prints, CutCardStock Silk Glitter Silvermist cardstock and a Solar White cardstock scrap, all using the Decorative Sentiment Dies, and set them aside.

I cut the card base, a stitched circle die cut (using the Love From Lizi Stitched Circle Nested Cutting Dies), and the focal using the (Yay! Layered Word Die) from American Crafts Taffy cardstock. I cut layering panels from Doodlebug Design Plaid-Polka Dot and Floral-Graph Rainbow Petite Prints. The confetti background was dry at this point so I cut a stitched circle using a slightly smaller die from the Love From Lizi Stitched Circle Nested Cutting Dies. I assembled the card, and the final step was stamping a sentiment from the All The Happy Things stamp set on the banner in the picked raspberry distress ink and popping it up on 3D Foam Squares.

I cut the inside panel from Solar White cardstock and embellished it with a leftover strip of paper from the Floral-Graph Rainbow Petite Prints. I stamped two sentiments (one from the All The Happy Things stamp set and the other from the Graduation & Retirement stamp set) in the picked raspberry and shaded lilac distress inks. LOVE how this turned out!
