Hello, Crafters.
Did you see that the Clearance Rack has been updated? There are products with reductions up to an amazing 60%! Today’s card is one of my favourite white-on-white designs. The stamp set is called Climbing Roses, and has a set of co-ordinating dies called Rose Trellis. I decided to die cut the trellis from my top layer of Whisper White Cardstock (CS), and then put it back where it came from! To make sure the white layers stand out as much as possible, I decided to emboss one of the layers using the Subtle Dynamic Embossing Folder. There were four different option to choose from, and I decided to emboss just the top layer, excluding the trellis die cut. While I was thinking about these different options, it gave me an idea for the inside of the card. More about that later.
I stamped the large image using my Stamparatus, and Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. The Stampin’ Blends I used are Call Me Clover and Poppy Parade – light and dark for them both. Recently I’ve been using the “pen” end of the Blend, especially when colouring small images, and have found it very much easier. Another plus of using Blends, is the Memento Ink cleans off stamps really easily! Still using my Stamparatus, I stamped the sentiment on to a piece of Whisper White CS. I turned the plate round, and placed the small rose stamp just on the edge of the sentiment. I inked and stamped the image, and it was positioned beautifully. I’m loving my Stamparatus a little bit more every day I use it!!
To decorate the inside of my card, I die cut the rose outline from the top Whisper White CS layer. I embossed the second layer using the same embossing folder. I used my Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Pen to paint the rose outline die cut. Next I adhered it back into the space it had come from! The final touch was a double bow which I made using a bow maker! With the right words on the inside this would make a lovely wedding card!
That’s it from me today. This morning I have a check up with my dentist, then an appointment with the hygenist. Roll on lunchtime! LOL!! I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday, and I’ll be back with you tomorrow. Happy crafting.
