CAS Sympathy- Two Challenges and Sneak Peek

Hi Stampers! 

 

I decided to create a Clean and Simple cards using the CCMC154 colors from this week;s Create withConnie and Mary Challenge and the SSC207 Sketch at Stamping411.  I love both of the weekly challenges at these sites and this week’s  Design Team samples as well as the other entries are superb!

To create this card:

Use the Big Shot to emboss a piece of Elegant Eggplant with the Vintage Wallpaper EF and spray it with Frost White Shimmer Paint (mixed with 70% alcohol).

Stamp the floral image (sneak peek) in Basic Black onto Whisper White and using a Blender Pen, color with River Rock and Melon Mambo ink.  Use the Color Spritzer Tool with an Elegant Eggplant marker to spritz the floral image and punch the image out with the 2 ½” XL Circle Punch.  Layer onto a piece of River Rock cut from the Big Shot with the 3” Circle Die.

Stamp the sentiment in Elegant Eggplant on Whisper White and punch out with the Medium Oval Punch.   Use the Modern Label with Melon Mambo for the layer behind the sentiment, adhere to the bottom of the circle and add the pearls.

Punch the River Rock layer with the Lace Border Punch (another sneak peek) and finish assembling the card.
