Julie's Creative Stamping: Simple and Quick Elegantly Said Card!

Thanks for popping in today! I decided to do a quick and easy elegant card. This card is pretty simple to make and I love how rich it looks!

For this card I used the Simply Elegant suite by Stampin UP® This suite includes the Elegantly Said Bundle (Stamp Set and punch), Simply Elegant Designer Series paper and the Simply Elegant Trim.

Once great thing about Designer Series Paper that had metallic filigree throughout is that is gives the card that extra special pop!

I wanted to show you how to use this Suite to put together a card that can be duplicated easily and made in rush if need be. I think this card would be perfect for a Wedding, Anniversary or any other special occasion. Remember it all about just changing up the sentiment and it will work for any occasion.

Remember if you want to be notified when I add new cards just add your email address to the right under the "Follow Me" section! I would also love it if you would take the time to leave me a comment below!

NOTE: I have listed the suite as well as the individual items used to make this card! I did this because it's easier to enter just one item number if your interested in the suite. Also you can purchase the stamp set and punch separately but I always list them as a bundle if they sell that way as you save 10% by purchasing bundles as a bundle!
