Good Monday morning my fellow stampers. How was everyone’s weekend? Did anyone do anything fun? I actually had a really fun day at work Saturday. The group that I work with are always a lot of fun. As busy as it was with our bucket sale going on, we laughed and had a really good time which made the day fly by. Sunday I was able to get some crafting time in, which is always relaxing for me.
For today’s card I used the Triple Time Technique for you Here’s my card.
My card played along with the Color Throwdown Challenge #554. Here are their colors.
I started by layering the 3 Whisper White panels of cardstock together with the tiniest amount of Snail just so that they would stay in place while I was stamping. I first stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up New Wonders Host Exclusive Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the center of the smallest Whisper White panel. I then stamped the 1st part of the sunflower from the Stampin’ Up Painted Harvest Photopolymer Stamp Set randomly around using Real Red Ink that I stamped off once. I then stamped the 2nd part of the flower from the Painted Harvest stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink on top of the 1st part of the flower.
I stamped all the centers of the flowers from the Painted Harvest stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink. I stamped the seed image from the Painted Harvest stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink in the center of each flower. I stamped the 1st part of the leaf image from the Painted Harvest stamp set in Old Olive Ink randomly around the layered panels. I stamped the 2nd part of the leaf image from the Painted Harvest stamp set in Old Olive Ink on top of the 1st image stamping off once. I carefully took the panels apart and adhered the small and medium one to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Snail. I adhered all the layered panels together, making sure to line up the flowers and leaves, using Snail.
I wrapped a piece of Linen Thread around the card front 3 times and tied a knot. With another piece of Linen Thread I made a double bow and adhered it to the card front using a Glue Dot. I colored a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels using my Dark Basic Black Stampin’ Blends Marker and adhered them to the smallest panel. I adhered the card front to a Crumb Cake card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On the inside I stamped a few more flowers and leaves from the Painted Harvest stamp set the same as I did for the card front on a Whisper White panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Snail and adhered it to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I did not use a sentiment on the inside so that I could write my own thank you.
To finish my card off I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the flowers and leaves from the Painted Harvest stamp set on the front of the envelope and the envelope flap the same as I did for the card front.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
