Another pretty flower stamp set in the Occasions Catalog! I was excited to see some outline images that could be colored, or stamped on colored cardstock! Every once in a while I do like to color! On this one, I did both! And…don't you LOVE that new On Film Framelit? It embosses around the edges, too! This card has lots of texture.
Here are the details:
- The base is 4 1/4 x 11 Tangerine Tango cardstock, folded in half.
- I embossed the 4 x 5 1/4 piece of Whisper White with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder.
- The On File Framelit was cut from Baked Brown Sugar cardstock and placed on the front.
- I measured the inside of the frame and then cut another piece of Whisper White that was 1/4" smaller (I think 2 3/4 x 2 3/4?) I stamped the greeting from Peaceful Petals with Baked Brown Sugar in the upper right corner.
- The flower was stamped twice on Crushed Curry with Black Stazon, then I used my AquaPainter and added Tangerine Tango ink around it. I cut out one full flower and just the center of the other.
- The leaves were stamped with Black Stazon on Garden Green carstock, cut out, and more Garden Green ink added with the AquaPainter.
- In the center of the flower, I added a small orange designer button tied with White Bakers Twine.
- The entire flower was popped up on the front with Stampin' Dimensionals.
- I added some EXTRA sparkle with some of the Gold Sequins cut from the trim…fun!!!
