May is a bittersweet month for us Stampin' Up! demonstrators, a time brimming with excitement yet tinged with a hint of sadness.  Each year, we eagerly await the arrival of fresh stamps, delightful dies, and the vibrant new In Colors from our latest catalog and Online Exclusives.  But amidst the thrill of new treasures, we can't help but mourn the departure of beloved favorites that have served us well over the years.  Today, I've crafted a card that beautifully marries nostalgia with novelty.  It's remarkable to think I've layered so many dies on a single card.  This creation showcases the enchanting Designer Series Papers from Botanical Textures Suite Collection.  I chose a rich palette of Early Espresso, Wild Wheat, Pecan Pie, and Very Vanilla cardstock, giving depth and warmth to the composition.  Among the myriad of dies, I employed are the charming Round We Go, Thoughtful Wishes, Gallery Blooms, Textured Notes, and Spotlight on Nature.  The sentiments, stamped in Pecan Pie Ink, stem from the new May 2025 Mountain Majesties Paper Pumpkin Kit, while adhesive-backed swirl dots add an extra flair to the heartfelt piece.  Celebrate the old as we embrace the new!

The card base on these cards is Early Espresso Cardstock.  Then a die cut layer of recently retired Wild Wheat cardstock.  Then I began creating the die cuts.  The largest circle dies cuts and the the smaller Pecan Pie die cuts were created using the Spotlight on Nature Dies.  The Early Espresso and Wild Wheat rosette was created using the Round we go Dies with a small circle die from Spotlight on Nature Dies.  Pecan Pie florals was cut using the Thoughtful Wishes Dies, and the Very Vanilla flower is from the Gallery Blooms Dies. 

I used the More Messages Dies to die cut the sentiment labels from Very Vanilla cardstock, and then stamped the sentiments using Pecan Pie Ink.  The sentiments are Mountain Majesties May 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit.  For embellishments, I added a few retired Pecan Pie Adhesive-Backed Swirl Dots.
