Stampin' Up! Elegantly Said Bundle- Simple Saturday

Here is a Simple Saturday card!

Check out this pretty black & white card.

It is perfect for a bridal shower, wedding or anniversary!

I used the Elegantly Said Bundle that is on page 69 in the Annual Catalog.

This is not a normal Susie card.

As I love layers.....but with all of the detail in this stamp-

I didn't think I needed to add much more to it!

I thought this was a perfect card for Simple Saturday!

Look how I made the tag longer!

I cut a 1 3/4" strip & slid it down into the

top part of the Elegant Tag Punch like shown above.

By doing it this way I got the top part of the tag punch &

was able to make it longer , so I could use these words!

Here are the supplies & measurements.

Thick Basic White- 4 1/4 x 11"- score at 5 1/2"- fold in half for card basee
