Friendship's Journey- Another Three in One!


Hi Stampers! 

Well, I decided to create another card today and I just love the inspiration photo for this week’s Pals Paper ArtsPPA119 Challenge!  I chose to pair it with the SSC229 Sketch at Stamping411 and used the colors from The PaperPlayers PP72 Challenge (great colors, LeAnne!)

Again, if you have not already done so and have the time, drop by the sites above for some wonderful inspiration!

To create this card:

Use the Big Shot™ along with the Vintage WallpaperTextured Impressions™ Embossing Folder to emboss a piece of River Rock cardstock (use the brayer to apply Always Artichoke first to the smooth interior of the folder).  Also emboss a piece of Always Artichoke with the Snow Burst Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder.

Stamp the focal image with Versamark™ ink onto River Rock cardstock and the floral images onto Riding Hood Red cardstock.  Heat emboss with Stampin’ Emboss® Black Embossing Powder and color the focal image using Stampin’ Write markers in Riding Hood Red, Always Artichoke and River Rock. 

Layer the pieces and add the 5/8” Black Satin bow and pearls to finish off the card. 

Stamp Sets:  Creative Elements, Friendship’s Journey (retired)

Ink: Versamark™,  Stampin’ Write markers- Riding Hood Red, Always Artichoke and River Rock. 

Cardstock:  River Rock, Always Artichoke, Basic Black

Accessories:  Big Shot™, Vintage Wallpaper and Snow Burst Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folders, Heat Gun, Stampiin’ Emboss® Black Embossing Powder, 5/8” Black Satin Ribbon, Brayer, Pearls

Thanks again for stopping by- I hope you enjoyed this vintage card using a retired favorite!
