Free as a Bird with Buffalo Check “Retreat” Cards

June 13, 2019 1 Comment

Hi Friends! A couple of weeks ago I made cards to send out to each of the guests attending my Create Escape Retreat. I used the new “Bird Ballad” Designer Series Paper and it’s coordinating “Free as a Bird” stamp set. The “Buffalo Check” background was perfect to create a pretty green background. The “Bird Ballad” DSP is soooo gorgeous!!! I love how each card turned out a little differently from the others. Here are a few of the cards:

To create the little envelope on the card front I used our “Envelope Punch Board”, which has since retired.  I stamped a little card to tuck inside each of the card’s envelopes:

Speaking of envelopes, I always stamp mine – I love decorating them!

I joined Stampin' Up! the first night they arrived in Canada, April 2002, and what a ride it's been! At the time I just wanted the discount on all of the fabulous stamps and accessories - why pay full price if you don't have to, right? But little did I know where my journey with Stampin' Up! would take me. Read More
