Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? It’s going to be a hot one here, so I will definitely be staying in. At 8am the real feel outside was already 86 and they are saying we are suppose to be breaking record highs today. They are saying triple digits. Perfect crafting day in my books.
For today I have a quick and easy card for you that requires very little stamping. Here’s my card for today.
My colors are from Just Add Ink Challenge #514. Here are their colors.
I started by adhering a panel of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper to a Pretty Peacock mat using Stampin’ Seal. This DSP is so realistic looking I have to touch it every time thinking it is raised. My favorite from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog for sure. I adhered the card front to a Smoky Slate card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a small panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! So Sentimental Cling Stamp Set in Pretty Peacock Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. From a panel of Pretty Peacock cardstock I cut the larger Stitched So Sweetly Die and adhered the die cut sentiment to it using Stampin’ Seal.
I adhere a piece of the 3/8″ Pool Party Sheer Ribbon to the card front using Glue Dots. I adhered the matted sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I colored a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels using my Dark Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Marker and adhered them to the card front.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Ornate Thanks Photopolymer Stamp Set in Pretty Peacock Ink in the center of a Whisper White Panel. I stamped the small confetti image from the So Sentimental stamp set in Pretty Peacock Ink, stamping off once each time, on either side of the sentiment and in the corners. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Pretty Peacock mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Smoky Slate card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the larger confetti image from the So Sentimental stamp set multiple times across the bottom of the envelope front in Pretty Peacock Ink. I adhered a panel of In Good Taste DSP to the envelope flap.
Thank you for visiting my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. I hope you all enjoy the rest of your weekend with whatever you do and try to stay cool. Happy Stamping!!
