#stampinup #faithfulinkspirations I really love the Best Route Suite of products on pages 52 & 53 of the annual catalog. I love the stamp set, the Maps Etc. Embossing Folder, the washi tape, the Best Route Designer Series Paper, and the Memories & More Cards. I also love the Blueberry Bushel, Gray Granite, and Mango Melody color combination.
I have a friend retiring from the Air Force and I wanted to wish him well as he steps into civilian life. I used all kinds of goodies from the Best Route Suite for this card.
I started with a 3-3/4″ by 5″ Whisper White Card Stock mat. I added a 2″ diagonal strip of Mango Melody Card Stock. On top of that, I added 1/2″ strips cut from Best Route DSP and Best Route Memories & More Cards. I stamped the sentiment from the “En Route” stamp set in Blueberry Bushel Ink. I adhered this piece to a 3-7/8″ by 5-1/8″ Blueberry Bushel Card Stock mat and then onto a Mango Melody Card Stock card base. The Mango Melody card front is embossed with the Maps Etc. Embossing folder.
I punched three different pieces of Best Route DSP with the 2″, 1-3/4″ and 1-1/2″ Circle Punches and layered them on the striped element. I cut a strip of Mango Melody Card Stock and layered on a strip of Blueberry Bushel Card Stock and used my Paper Snips to turn this into an arrow heading for the bullseye. I added the “congratulations” sticker from the Best Route Memories & More Card Pack. Finally, I added some Blueberry Bushel and Daffodil Delight En Route Enamel Shapes.
I
cut down one of the Best Route Memories & More Cards for the inside
of the card. I love the way Stampin’ Up coordinates everything! It
makes card making so easy!!
