Gorgeous Ginkgo Branch By the Bay Cards for the Stampin' Up! Creative Cardiology Team April 2023 Retiring Favorites Blog Hop

Welcome to our Creative Cardiology Team April 2023 Blog Hop!  Since both the 2022-2023 Annual & Jan - Apr 2023 Mini Catalogs are retiring in less than a week we wanted to take one last opportunity to share a few of our last chance retiring favorite items with you.  

Three of my favorite last chance retiring items are the Ginkgo Branch Dies, By the Bay Designer Series Paper, and Fine Shimmer Paper.  Together they make the most beautiful cards!  
And they're on sale now too!  The Ginkgo Branch Dies are 60% off and both the By the Bay DSP and Fine Shimmer Paper are 20% off.
The Ginkgo Branch Bundle was actually one of my first purchases from the January -April 2023 Mini Catalog.  Unfortunately, the stamp set has already sold out, but the dies really are the best part anyways - and they're on sale 60% off!  I love the way the gold Fine Shimmer Paper looks when die cut with the Ginkgo Branch dies!  By adhering a piece of Adhesive Sheet to the back of the Fine Shimmer Paper before die cutting it makes it incredibly easy to adhere to your project.
The By the Bay Designer Series Paper is so pretty with its watercolor washes and pops of Gold Foil!  
It makes a truly versatile background for cards of any occasion.
Which variation of the card is your favorite - the lighter background or the dark?
