Hi all, When it comes to saying thank you nothing says it better than a handmade card and of course Stampin' Up! have bundles of products that make it so easy for doing just that! Keeping it simple, I have used just 4 colours to create a monochrome style look.
Very Vanilla cardstock Pink Pirouette cardstock and colouring Basic Black cardstock, stamping and doodling Silver cardstock and rhinestone jewels This card measures 4, 1/8" wide by 5, 1/2" tall. The Basic Black mat layer measures 4" x 5, 5/8" The Very Vanilla mat layer on the front and inside the card measures 3, 7/8" x 5, 3/4" I have used the new Stampin' Blends to add colour to the flowers. Rather than colouring in neatly, I have just added a wash of colour and some darker colour for the flower centres. Sometimes colouring outside the lines it's okay, it just depends on the look that you want to achieve. Although this card looks quite flat I have added some dimension by stamping a separate flower, cutting it out with scissors and attaching with a foam pad. The leaf attached underneath is cut using the new 'Leaf Punch' and although it isn't clear in the photo I have used Silver Foil Card to add some shine. To add some sparkle I have added some rhinestone jewels to the centre of the attached flower and some others at random in the Vanilla space. The line around the edges of the card is drawn freestyle with a Basic Black Stampin' Marker and I think it lift's the image off the page better than keeping it plain. To finish off this project I have stamped and coloured a flower inside the card and also on the envelope. The 'I am Thankful For You' sentiment comes from the 'Painted Harvest' stamp set and the flower comes from the new 'Colour Me Happy' stamp set. Stacey.xx
