I made this card for a friend that recently moved away. I love this stamp set. I stamped the base of the tree in Baked Brown Sugar, I stamped the leaves in Mossy Meadow. I stamped once full strength, then I turned the stamp slightly and stamped again and then I turned the stamp again and stamped a third time. I did not re-ink in between stampings. One thing to note, Stampin UP! changed their stamp pads so now they stay super wet. I would suggest on the new style pads, tapping your stamp on pad rather than pushing the pad onto the stamp, things I learn the hard way. I stamped the little grass stamp using Grass Green by Gina K Designs. I had to add a "tab" to the side of the card because I wasn't paying attention and my sentiment was too long for the piece of whisper white that I stamped the main image on (time for bed I think). I matted the main image with daffodil delight. My card base is Coastal Cabana. I used the white/silver twine from my November Paper Pumpkin which I wrapped around three times. The buttons are from the Best Ever accessory kit that was available during Sale-a-bration this year. On the smaller buttons I put a medium rhinestone in the center. I stamped my sentiments in Baked Brown Sugar, the inside sentiment is from the same set, it is the "you warm my heart". In addition, to this card I made a set of 8 cards to send to my friend. I will be posting these once I mailed the cards to her. Thank you for stopping by.
Come and create something with me.
Andi.
