Throughout the Year Archives - Inkspired Treasures

Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration is celebrating St. Patrick’s Day!

HEARTS OF ELEGANCE

Hearts are kind of my standby solution for shamrocks and four-leaf clover when Stampin’ Up! doesn’t have a current stamp that I have. Hearts of Elegance had several different options to use so I went with the stamped leaf heart.

Stampin’ Details:

The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Garden Green cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Full of Life Designer Paper was added on top using primarily the green and gold colors in the prints.
A 1-1/4 x 4 strip of Garden Green cardstock was placed across the bottom portion.
The Everyday Arch was cut with the die from Basic White cardstock and stamped with the Throughout the Year sentiment in Garden Green Ink and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Three of the leaf hearts were inked with Lemon Lime Twist and brushed with Garden Green Ink using a Blending Brush to give a two-tone look and stamped on Basic White cardstock. They were cut with the Hearts of Elegance Dies and added to the arch with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
A stem was hand-cut from Lemon Lime Twist cardstock and added to the arch.
A trio of green Transparent Adhesive Backed Dots were added to the center of the hearts.
Some Gold Textured Thread was tied in a bow and added to the stem with a Mini Glue Dot.
