Stamping 411 – Peace Within

April 23, 2010 By Connie | 8 Comments

 

I haven't used Stampin' Up!'s Peace Within stamp set for a long while, so I pulled it out today to use with the Stamping 411 Sketch Challenge!  I don't always enjoy coloring, but today I was in the mood! 

 

I started by stamping the basket of flowers image in Basic Brown on Whisper White and watercolored with my AquaPainter and Watercolor Crayons.  I don't use those as much as I should either!  I layered it on Regal Rose.   In the empty corner, I used my Piercing Tool and the Mat Pack to make a punched design.

 

I ran the background Whisper White thru the Big Shot with the Square Lattice Impressions Folder that will be in the Summer Mini.  LOVE the texture it makes!  I wrapped some Regal Rose Grosgrain Ribbon around it and placed it on the Regal Rose base card.  I added the punched Jewelry Tag stamped with Tiny Tags stamp set and Linen Thread.  Pretty simple card…but then the sketch was simple!

 

I hope you try out the sketch and link with Mr. Linky over on Stamping 411.  We'd love to see what you do with it!  I know I'm always anxious to see what the other design Operators have done with the sketch!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 20 years and will have my 19th year Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Lewis Center, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!

    This is GO-JUS Connie….like everything else you do!  But I have to agree that I just love this new embossing folder, what a great look!  and the nice simple layout of the card really makes you appreciate the background.  TFS!  Jan Hoyt   http://www.inkerzaway.blogspot.com
