Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? We’re already halfway through the week. I just love these short weeks.
For today, I kind of have a triple time card, but not really if that makes sense. I used some new items coming in the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog, some retiring colors and some items carrying over. Here’s my card for today.
My colors were inspired by Fab Friday Color Challenge #190. Here are their colors.
I started by embossing a Whisper White panel using the Parisian Flourish 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the panel to a Blushing Bride card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a panel of the gorgeous new In Good Taste Designer Series Paper to a panel of Blushing Bride cardstock using Snail. This DSP is just so pretty and looks so real. Every time I pull it out I have to touch it because it looks almost 3D. I adhered the matted DSP to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the stem image from the Stampin’ Up! Field of Flowers Photopolymer Stamp Set, (available June 3rd), in Call Me Clover Ink (retiring June 2nd). I stamped the flower image from the Field of Flowers stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink on top of the stems. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Timeless Tulips Photopolymer Stamp Set in Call Me Clover Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the artwork to a Blushing Bride mat using Snail. I adhered the matted artwork to the DSP panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a scrap of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the small butterfly from the Stampin’ Up! Butterfly Gala Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink twice. I stamped the fill color image from the Butterfly Gala stamp set in Pineapple Punch Ink on top of the outlined butterfly image. I punched the butterflies out using the Butterfly Duet Punch, bent the wings forward and adhered them to the artwork using Glue Dots. I added a few Melon Mambo Rhinestones from the Noble Peacock Rhinestones pack to my artwork.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Timeless Tulips stamp set in Call Me Clover Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the stem image from the Field of Flowers stamp set in Call Me Clover Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the flower image from the Field of Flowers stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink on top of the stems. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Whisper White mat using Snail and then to the inside of the Blushing Bride card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the stem image from the Field of Flowers stamp set in Call Me Clover Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the flower image from the Field of Flowers stamp set in Flirty Flamingo Ink on top of the stems. I adhered a panel of In Good Taste DSP to the envelope flap.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
