You Are A Beautiful Blessing



Hi Friends!

I had a chance to stamp this afternoon and decided to create a card using the TGIF#55 Sketch Challenge along with the ColourQ CQC341 Challenge and the Paper Craft Crew#194 Flower Challenge.

If you have not had a chance to check out the above challenge sites, I hope you will find time to do so- wonderful samples from all!

To create this card: 


This card was difficult to photograph-
not sure if it is due to the pinks
or the kraft background :-)
De-static a piece of Whisper White cardstock with the Embossing Buddy, stamp the floral image from Choose Happiness with Versamark™ Ink onto the prepared cardstock in a square (four different flowers) and heat emboss with Stampin’ Emboss® White Embossing Powder.

Add color to the flowers using Stampin’ Write Markers- retired Peach Parfait, Calypso Coral and Melon Mambo and spritz with water.

Fussy cut just the edge of the flowers to create a cluster and set aside.

Use the Big Shot™ to emboss a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock with the Woodgrain Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder, trim and mount onto a piece of Calypso Coral cardstock, trim and mount onto a piece of Melon Mambo cardstock, trim and mount onto a Whisper White card base.

Use the Simply Scored™ Scoring Tool to score a piece of Whisper White cardstock to create the background panel for the focal image, trim the panel and mount onto a piece of Calypso Coral cardstock, trim and mount onto a piece of Melon Mambo cardstock.

Another view to try to show the scoring on the
background panel (looks better IRL :-))
Adhere the scored background panel to the card front and add the fussy cut floral image panel to the center.

De-static a piece of Basic Black cardstock with the Embossing Buddy, stamp the sentiment from Rose Wonder with Versamark™ Ink and heat emboss with Stampin’ Emboss® White Embossing Powder.

Mount the sentiment with dimensional foam to finish off the card.



Stamp Sets: Choose Happiness, Rose Wonder

Ink/Mediums: Versamark™, Stampin’ Write Markers- Calypso Coral, Melon Mambo, retired Peach Parfait

Paper: Whisper White, Basic Black, Crumb Cake

Accessories: Big Shot™, Woodgrain Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder, Embossing Buddy®, Heat Tool, Stampin’ Emboss® White Embossing Powder, Water Spritzer Bottle


Thanks again for taking the time to stop by- hugs and I hope you have a wonderful week!

Bold and vibrant! Your choice to emboss those flowers and combining it with an embossed white on black sentiment has really helped those bright tones pop. Such a lovely card! Thanks so much for playing along with TGIF this week.
