Adam's Pineapple!!!
My nephew Adam is here visiting this week and we made some cards today. He wanted to learn how to emboss, so we made some golden pineapples and added some gold sequins to make things shiny! This was the card he decided to make with tempting turquoise and soft suede to match this ds paper.
We also had to head out for a coffee break after working on cards all afternoon...and brought his Grandpa along!
I absolutely love this pineapple stamp from Stampin' Up! SHOP NOW to get your very own pineapple stamp today!

You may just be starting the Blog Hop or may have come from the previous link from the Line-up on the Pals Blog Hop listing shown below. The full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you may see all the projects.
For today's blog hop I chose to use three colors that just blend so well together and the A Little Foxy Design Series Paper Stack and coordinating A Little Foxy Cardstock Pack make it even easier. These are just a sweet example of how the Stampin' Up! cardstock, ds paper, and embellishments all coordinate so nicely together.
Project Details:
- The Layering Squares Framelits worked great to cut out the ds paper and then perfectly layer them over the scallop squares.
- I also added some Pool Party & Calypso Coral Enamel Shapes.
- The sentiment is stamped in Calypso Coral from the Gift of Love Hostess Set that is available with your order of $150 or more for just $10. It is cut out using the Bunch of Banners Framelits.
