Hand-Penned Card Class by Gabriela Rodriguez

Hand-Penned Petals is one of the prettiest bundles in the Stampin’ Up! 2021-22 annual catalog, and it was the top pick for Just Stamp team member Gabriela Rodriguez when she volunteered to be Stamper of the Month recently.
A talented crafter who leans to detailed elegant designs, Gaby is one of the newest Just Stamp team member, also known as the Stamparistas. She created a collection of elegant all occasion cards using the bundle perk she was gifted for volunteering to design a a card class to share with the team. It’s an elegant collection.
Hand-Penned is a Distinktive, Two-Step stamp set with coordinating dies that crop both the set images and intricate layers to embellish. Distinktive means the stamp itself produces different opacities in a single stamping. Two-step means images can be easily outlined stamped and colored in two easy steps. No markers, pencils, Blenders or other color tools are needed. It’s ONE choice available to add color.
Together the stamps and Penned Flowers dies make-up the Hand-Penned Petals bundle. The bundle is part of a suite of tools and supplies that includes 12 x 12 patterned paper and faceted Genial Gems.
All Occasion Cards
Gaby’s first project beautifully showcases both sides of one sheet of the 12 x 12 Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper. It’s a fun fold Congratulations card.

For this Happy Birthday card, Gaby features the intricate detailed dies. She borrowed the sentiment from Best Year (#152568) and texture from Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder.

Simple stamping and coloring with Blends create the focal images for a simple layout. The Hand-Penned DSP creates a background.

Another fun fold card showcasing the stitched scallop edge die in the Penned Flowers Dies. It’s perfect for conveying Thanks.

The Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder creates one of the panels in the fun fold Get Well card. The outline die easily crops the floral stem.
