Good Monday morning my fellow stampers. How was everyone’s weekend? Are you ready for another week of working from home and social distancing? I’m ready for this to all be over. I’m ready to socialize and spend time with friends and family sitting together again. It’s been pretty cool here in NJ, so wearing the mask hasn’t been too bad. Once it starts getting warm though, I will not be going out if we still have to wear them.
Most of my cards this week are using the Ornate Garden Suite. Last week I was trying to decide which design I wanted to use for my video on Saturday so I made a few extra. Here’s my card for today.
I played along with the Joy of Sets Tick Tac Toe April 2020 Challenge #JOSTTT016. I went right across the top and down the left side. Here are their sets.
I started by embossing a Terracotta Tile card front using the Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder.
Using my Ornate Borders Dies, I cut both sides of a Whisper White panel using the thinnest die. I adhered a panel of Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper to the die cut Whisper White panel using Snail then I adhered it to the embossed card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
On a small Whisper White panel I stamped the daisy image from the Stampin’ Up! Ornate Style Cling Stamp Set twice in Early Espresso Ink. I colored the images in using my Light Mango Melody and Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using my Stitched So Sweetly Dies making sure to leave room at the top for a sentiment. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Ornate Thanks Photopolymer Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink. I adhered the artwork to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the card front to a Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Gilded Gems to the card front.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Strong & Beautiful Cling Stamp Set in Early Espresso Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the daisy image from the Ornate Style stamp set twice on the bottom of the panel in Early Espresso Ink and colored the image in using my Light Mango Melody and Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Terracotta Tile mat using Snail and then to the inside of the Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the daisy image from the Ornate Style stamp set in Early Espresso Ink on the bottom front of the envelope 3 times. I colored the images in using my Light Mango Melody and Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Ornate Garden Specialty 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!!
