So happy you are hopping through our September Paper Crafting Blog Hop with Independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from all over the world featuring cards using products from the new Sept-Dec Mini-Catalog! Below my card is a list of links to all of the participating bloggers. Here’s a little preview of my card:

My card features the Regal Flora stamps (#164157), a part of the Regal Flora Bundle (#164034) which also includes the Regal Flora Dies (#164033). You can buy the entire Regal Winter Suite using just one number, #164040. I also used the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder (#162189) and Regal Winter DSP (#164156).
My card base is Basic White, with a layer of Basic White, embossed with the Distressed Embossing Folder. Next, I cut a strip of the Regal Winter DSP and layered a small piece of Early Espresso under the bottom edge with the end cut at an angle. The tag was cut from Basic White using the Greetings of the Season Dies (#164112). The flowers and leaves in the Regal Flora were stamped or colored with Stampin’ Write Markers in Lemon Lolly, Wild Wheat, Pebbled Path, and Old Olive. Other pieces were from Gold Foil die cut with a die from the Cheerful Daisies Dies (#161296). The tag was tied with Gold Trim (#161633) and Baker’s Twine (#16 . Gold Textured Adhesive-Backed Dots (#164027) completed my card.
