Hello! Today's card was inspired by Nance Lempinen-Leedy's Triple Treat card over at her blog, Canopy Crafts (here). I {loved} everything about her card and decided to change only the sentiment.
While stunning to look at, this technique is incredibly simple. Cut three pieces of Vanilla card stock, adhere with removable glue dots in layers and stamp! Carefully remove the Vanilla layers and adhere to Artichoke card stock. It's ok if the stamped image doesn't stamp 100%, the edges will be disguised with the colored card stock.
Stamps: Watercolor Winter, Rejoicing with You
Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Riding Hood Red Always Artichoke
Paper: Very Vanilla, Always Artichoke
Hello! Today's card was inspired by Connie Babbert's Watercolor Winter card over on her blog, Inspired Treasures (here). I {loved} everything about her card and decided to keep the layout the same but change up the color and dust off my heat tool!
I can't tell you the last time I pulled out my heat tool and embossed - it's been ages! And I've also had a package of silver glimmer paper sitting in my paper rack for almost a year now... thought I should get some use out of that, too!
Stamps: Watercolor Winter
Ink: VersaMark
Paper: Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla, silver glimmer paper, Be of Good Cheer DSP
Tools & Accessories: Heat tool, pewter embossing powder, seam binding ribbon, dimensionals
Hello! Today's card was inspired by tessa's Elegant Christmas Card over at SCS (here). This card has been sitting in my "favorites" folder at SCS for almost a year. I loved everything about Tessa's card and the instant I saw Watercolor Winter stamp set in the Holiday mini I knew that would be the perfect set for this card!
For a little drama I used the Big Shot and the Finial Press embossing folder for a layer behind the image. Unfortunately, Finial Press is now retired but the Lacy Brocade folder on page 6 of the Holiday mini would be a beautiful replacement. I should note that I turned the embossed card stock over so you see the debossed image. I also added a little Crystal Effects to the leaves and berries to make them pop.
Stamps: Watercolor Winter
Ink: StazOn Black, Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive
Paper: Very Vanilla, Basic Black, First Edition DSP, Island Indigo
Tools & Accessories: Big Shot, Finial Press embossing folder (retired), seam binding ribbon, scallop edge border punch, Crystal Effects
