Thinking of You- Two Challenges in One!

Hi Stampers!

I finally had a chance to spend some time in my craft room to stamp and decided to use the colors from this week’s CQC155ColourQ Challenge and incorporate the CCCB127 City Crafter Blog Challenge to use “inchies”.  If you have not had a chance to do so, try to take a moment to visit the challenge sites (what great examples from both Design Teams!) :-)   

To create this  card:

On Whisper White cardstock, stamp the floral circle from Just Believe using Rich Razzleberry Classic Ink and color using SU! markers- Old Olive, SO Saffron and retired Pale Plum.

Punch out the image with the 1 ¼” Circle Punch and layer onto a Whisper White circle (punched with the 1 3/8” Circle Punch).   Layer again onto a square punched with the 1 3/8” Square Punch and adhere this to Rich Razzleberry cardstock (I trimmed around the Rich Razzleberry layer with the Paper Cutter but you could use a 1 ½” Square Punch).

Use the Big Shot™ to emboss a piece of Old Olive DSP (retired Cottage Wall) with the Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder and a piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Delicate Designs Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder.  Lightly sand the Old Olive layer with the Sanding Block to expose the white core.

Layer the elements onto Rich Razzleberry cardstock and add the inchies using SU! Dimensionals.  Add the pearls and sentiment to finish off the card.
