Try Stampin on Tuesday #114

By | April 17, 2013

Hi there

As I posted a couple of weeks ago I’m trying to use up some of my accessories that I buy because I love them but then never get round to using!  So when I saw this weeks sketch included some brads I checked what I had and that determined my colour combo.

I’ve gone with Island Indigo and Pool Party as my main colours teaming them up with So Saffron.

I changed the circle to an oval as I wanted to use the stamp set ‘Oh, Hello” from the Seasonal Catalogue.  I love the Core’dinations Card Stock and this time used the Sanding Block for some extra texture once I’d embossed it – it almost gives it a suede feel.  The embossing folder doesn’t fit for a portrait piece of card stock so I did it in two parts and then covered the join with the Island Indigo card stock 🙂 (nobody would ever know)

I’ve remembered to take a photo of the inside of the card this time 🙂

I’m loving this flower image.  I coloured it by applying ink to the stamp using a blender pen as I don’t have the Island Indigo marker.

Supplies:
Stamp – Oh, Hello and Thoughts and Prayers
Card Stock – Island Indigo, Pool Party Core’dinations and Whisper White
Ink – So Saffron, Island Indigo, Old Olive
Other – Ovals Collections Framelits, So Saffron Grosgrain Ribbon (retired), Island Indigo and Pool Party Designer Printed Brads, Chevron Embossing Folder, Sanding Block, Dimensionals, Blender Pens

Have a great day

    This is such a great stamp set, I am going to be so sad when it retires. Love your brads. Great job!
