CCMC Saturday Blog Hop – All About Neutrals

Hello everyone!   The theme for this week’s Create with Connie and Mary’s Saturday Blog Hop is “All About Neutrals”…no colors, just neutrals on our cards!  Personally I love the Crumb Cake and Basic Black “color” combination.  I go thru a LOT of Crumb Cake cardstock!  I pulled out another Annual Catalog stamp set, Wood Words to use on my card.

 

 

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Thick Whisper White cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
• A 1 x 5-1/2 piece of Petal Passion Designer paper was added to the left edge, then a 3/4 x 5-1/2 piece of Crumb Cake added next to it.
• A 3 x 4-3/4 piece of Basic Black cardstock was slanted in the background.
• On the 2-3/4 x 4-1/2 piece of Whisper White cardstock, the background floral from Wood Words was stamped with Crumb Cake Ink.
• Linen Thread was wrapped around several times and tied with a bow on the front.  It was added at a different angle on the front.
• The shabby circle from Wood Words was stamped with Crumb Cake ink on scrap Whisper White, then Thank You with Memento Black Ink on top.  It was punched with the 1-1/4 Circle Punch, then layered on the 1-3/8″ Scallop Circle Punch of Crumb Cake, and then layered on a 1-1/2 Circle Punch of Basic Black.  It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• A few scattered Metallic Enamel Shapes finished off the card.
