This project started out as a catalog CASE using the Encircled in Warmth stamp set with the Encircled in Beauty Dies and I became so invested in these dies that I had to make another! The stamp set is called Encircled in Warmth and is showcased in the Mini (Holiday) Catalog. The dies, however, are from the Annual Catalog and are called Encircled in Beauty. The dies are part of the Encircled in Friendship bundle.
You can see the actual CASE below. It was created with the Peaceful Place DSP layered over Smoky Slate card stock.
For the photo below, I pretty much CASEd the catalog exactly as shown with the exception of the ribbon. I used the Pool Party Sheer Ribbon. I wasn’t sure of the exact layering of the dies so I cropped each of the dies first to see which die cuts went over which die cuts to make that beautiful focal image.
I usually do that with each die set that has multiple and intricate pieces. It helps me see it all first. Here is a pic of what my ‘cheat sheet’ looked like:
For my second project, I used the Whimsy & Wonder DSP, layered the die cuts a little differently and used the White Glittered Organdy Ribbon. I also trimmed the DSP with 4 separate layers (3) 1″ and (1) 3 3/4″. This card was also heat embossed with Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder instead of Pool Party ink.
I also made a custom envelope for these slimline cards using the Peaceful Place DSP.
I also made a third project with this same design for a YouTube Video that was posted last week. You are welcome to get the step by step for both the card and the envelope by watching the video below:

I like your version in the pink the best. Very pretty and would be a nice Christmas Birthday card(changing the greeting of course).
Thanks for sharing.
