I really like the subtle textures in this designer
series paper and wanted to use this one with hexagonal tiles with a little pink
hue, so I thought it would look great with a gray backdrop and here is what I made…
The card base is Basic Gray cardstock cut to 5 ½ x 8
½” and scored at 4 ¼”. I then added a
layer of Smoky Slate that measured 4 x 5 ¼”, I stamped the leaves from the
stamp set using Basic Gray ink (which I had stamped off once for a lighter
tone) along the top of this layer. I
added a piece of the In Good Taste DSP to the bottom of this layer that
measured 2 ¼ x 5 ¼” to the bottom of this layer.
Next I stamped three of the flowers onto Whisper White
cardstock using Melon Mambo ink, while the ink was still fresh I used my
Blending Pen to pull some of the ink into the open areas giving the flowers a
little touch of the Melon Mambo ink (this is a great way to add a little color
without taking away from the sharpness of the image. Once I had all my flowers colored I fussy cut
them.
For my sentiment I used another of the stamps from the
set and stamped it with Melon Mambo ink onto Whisper White cardstock. I then used another of the dies from this
bundle to cut it out and I used dimensionals to pop it and the flowers up across
the center of the card. Again, this is
one of the ones I was talking about on Monday that cuts and embosses (I am
loving these dies).
Here is a picture of
it up close, just look at those embossed edges, it is just gorgeous...
