AC183 and AC 184 Illuminations Stamp Card, Hope and Thanks

 

I have never used the StampinUp Illuminations Stamp set. I have had it for years and finally got some inspiration with some Easter or Spring colors. See the results below

 

Thanks Card for pretty spring colors. I plan to make this also an Easter card. Love the springtime colors and will add a couple of decorative crosses.

 Hope Card. I used a the Fresh vintage stamp set on the background. Then used the Illuminations stamp set for the sentiment. There are four sentiments Hope, Cherish, Thanks and Joy. The Joy could be used for Christmas too.

So here's the materials used:

StampinUp: Soft Sky card stock, Almost Amethyst card stock, Very Vanilla card stock, Pistachio Pudding cardstock and ink, Crisp Cantelope Cardstock and ink, Regal Rose cardstock and ink, Garden Green card stock. 

Polka dot embossing folder.

Cheery Lynn dies:

Dancing Doily Lace Border, Queens Anne Lace, Mini Fanciful Flourish, Build a Flower Embellishment #2

Spellbinder dies:

Rose Creations and Bitty Blossoms

Embellishments: small pearls for white flowers and larger pearl for center of rose. If interested in this card I'll add it to the Etsy Store
