Happy Wednesday, have way through the week! Any special plans for July 4th? I will be spending the day resting and swimming, I have to work Friday so I’ll enjoy the down time.
Today’s card is for the Paper Craft Crew challenge PCC342, a Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge, check out their blog here. For my card I decided on a simplistic card using the list of items straight down the middle:
- Die Cut Element
- Favorite Color
- Floral
For my card I decided on one of my favorite bundles from the catalog, To A Wild Rose which covers both the floral and die cut element of the challenge. One of my all time favorite Stampin’ Up! colors is Bermuda Bay – so that’s the color for the card base, flower and greeting. Since the stamp set is photopolymer it makes it’s easy to line up the images, flower is 3 step stamping, leaf’s are two step and the greeting is two separate stamps. When stamping the flower, I stamped the outline first using full strength ink, 2nd layer is also full strength ink followed by the 3rd image which was stamped first on scrap paper then on image. Once I stamped the flower and leaf’s I die cut them out. The flower is adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the leaf’s are direct on the card front. The finishing touch are three rhinestones from the Noble Peacock Rhinestones.
Don’t forget about July Bonus Days, $5 coupon from Stampin’ Up! for use in August with every $50 purchase in July. More details here.
