Let’s play around with the Sunny Springs card and envelopes pack today. This is a brand-new product from the Stampin’ Up! Annual catalog. The pack includes 5 card bases with coordinating envelopes. It also pairs nicely with the new ephemera packs so that you can create some quick and simple cards.
Sunny Springs Cards & Envelopes
First let’s talk about the Sunny Springs Cards & Envelopes pack. This particular pack includes 5 standard card bases each featuring a different design. The pack also includes 5 coordinating envelopes. You can use these card bases with any supplies. As such, I decided to use three different ephemera packs to decorate these cards.
There are a variety of different ephemera packs to choose from too! The Fully Flowering ephemera pack has 8 sheets of flowers you can use for your focal point. The Saying Something ephemera pack has 8 sheets of greetings and sentiments. And the last ephemera pack is called Labels & Layers which is perfect for adding depth and dimension to the cards. There are plenty of die cut shapes in the ephemera packs to create oodles of cards, not just 5.
5 Cards in 10 Minutes
Now that you have the card bases and the ephemera packs, you are ready to create all 5 of the cards! You can literally make all 5 of these cards in about 10 minutes; 15 minutes tops! All the pieces from the ephemera packs are precut and ready to use. You just need a few design ideas, right?
Start by laying out all 5 card bases on the table in from of you. Next, open the ephemera packs to find all the flowers, greetings, layers and labels featured on each of these 5 cards. Now, you are ready to assemble the cards. You won’t believe how quickly you can put these cards together!
Besides using the die cut shapes from the ephemera packs, you can also add a bit of texture to the cards by adding a few embossed cardstock pieces. The blue floral card features a 4-1/4 x 1-1/2 inch piece of embossed white cardstock. The pink floral card has a 2-1/2 x 3-1/2 inch piece of embossed white cardstock.
