A Million Dollar Hooray

A  clean and simple card for a big celebration:

When I got started in my Stampin’ Up! hobby, I turned to Mary Fish of Stampin’ Pretty for a daily dose of inspiration.  And when I joined Stampin’ Up! as a demonstrator, I joined under Mary because A) I liked her papercrafting style, and B) she had a reputation for being a great support to her team, hence her nickname as “The Fearless Leader”.  Mary just achieved a major milestone in her career; she just became the 14th demonstrator to sell $1,000,000 in lifetime sales!   This card is on it’s way to Mary to congratulate her on this success.

A simple striking color combination of Night of Navy and Whisper White and lots of white space keeps this card Clean & Simple.  A few strips of Washi Tape, and a sentiment from the Perfectly Wrapped stamp set cropped with Layering Circles Framelits topped off with a few Metallic Enamel Shapes.  Simple, quick, clean and uncluttered.

I made my envelope to match by just layering strips of Washi Tape on the flap.   Speaking of Washi Tape, let me share with you my tip for keeping your Washi Tape organized.  I have little mesh bins on the wall in my stampin’ space that I keep my rolls of Washi Tape.  They fit perfectly but I don’t always know what roll goes with what, or what color it is.

Solution?  I cut a piece of cardstock (4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″) and I gently peel off the sticker from the roll and adhere that to the cardstock.  I write the year and catalog name on top; list all the colors, and finally a strip of each pattern.  These cards go in the basket with my Washi Tape.  Organized!  🙂

Stampin’ UP! offers so many Washi Tape assortments. So versatile and easy to use, Stampin’ UP! offers them in patterns and colors to coordinate with other products.  My card features a 3-roll assortment from the Floral Boutique Product Suite.  The card above is a 5-roll assortment from the Pop of Pink product suite.

Why don’t you add a package or two of Washi Tape in your next order and see how simple it is to use.   You can view the different collections below, and You can order Washi Tape right here. 

I hope you enjoyed my card, and I hope Mary will like it too!  Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.   If you would like to buy any Washi Tape, or any other Stampin’ Up! products, click here to shop my online store.
