Click and print your rewards card now!Hi Everyone,
I hope that all of you are well and that it’s stopped snowing. My goodness so many of you have had tons of that white stuff!!!
Hope you have been taking the opportunity to stay warm , sip some Hot Chocolate and Stamp!! What else would you do? hehe
Here is the Stamping 411 sample sketch for this week.
….and now my interpretation.
I’m having trouble photographing this as it’s white and it’s dreary outside. This is the lightest I could get.
I am showcasing a cute Sale-a-Bration Stamp Set called Sweet Summer. It’s such a delicate sweet set. When I opened the box of stamps today I saw this cute little swirly leaf one and immediately thought of “Toile’ and thought I’d make some and then pop up some of those cute little blossoms…so I did.
The card base is whisper white and cut to 5 1/2 x 8 1/2
Old Olive was used for the mat and cut to 2 5/8 x 4 1/8
The image piece is whisper white and cut to 2 1/2 x 4
I used little scraps for the flowers and stamped in Baja Breeze and then colored directly from my ink pad with a Blender Pen. I also took some Old Olive Ink and added just a touch to the leaves on the front piece…you can barley see it. I sued the Happy Birthday Stamp from Create A Cupcake and stamped in Old Olive onto a scrap of white card stock and matted it on Old Olive. That’s it!!!
I know exactly who I will be giving this to! An older friend of mine will be celebrating her 85th Birthday in March and I think she will love this.
Thanks for stopping by and hope you will take the time to play along this week.
