Oh So Succulent Again!

Uncategorized

10 Feb

Hello, Crafters.

I think this stamp set is becoming my newest favourite set, pushing the balloons off top spot! LOL!

As
I said yesterday, this is so easy to line up the second stamp in the
two-step stamping process. 

On both occasions I’ve used this stamp set, I’ve stamped the outline stamp
first.

Next time, I’ll try and remember to do the main body stamp first
– I don’t remember trying it on Wednesday!

To
make this card I started with a base of Sweet Sugarplum Cardstock (CS),
then a layer of Tip Top Taupe  CS, which I adhered together using
Tombow. 
 
Note: rather than keep repeating myself and saying I used
Tombow, please note, I used Tombow for all the adhering on this card!
LOL!

I
took a 3 1/8″ square piece of Tip Top Taupe CS and dry embossed it
using the Petal Burst Embossing Folder. 

Hubby said they look like
pebbles, which I thought was very appropriate for succulents! 

I have to agree with him, too, they now look like pebals to me!

I layered
this onto a piece of Sweet Sugarplum CS. 

I used Soft Suede to stamp the
sentiment, which is from the Butterfly Basics Stamp Set, onto another
piece of Tip Top Taupe CS.
On
some scrap pieces of Sweet Sugarplum CS I stamped the outline stamps of
two large and two small flowers.

Then I stamped the solid stamps on
both, but stamped off once first.  

Then I took some scraps of Old Olive
CS and, using Old Olive Ink, repeated the process and stamped three of
the twiggy-looking stems, stamping off once for the solid stamp.

I adhered this to a piece of Sweet Sugarplum
CS.

I adhered the “pebbles” and the sentiment to the card.

I
die cut all the pieces and played around with placement until I was
happy that the centre was best. 

I adhered the small flower on top of the
large flower which was adhered to the pebbles. 

Carrying on with Tombow,
I adhered the three stem images and slid them in place under the
flower.

Inside the card I added a layer of Tip Top Taupe CS and adhered the two flowers side by side.
That’s about it for today. Until tomorrow, happy crafting.
 
JanB.
