Hello Friday! Here lately you don’t have to worry about me filling up your email inbox! I do have NEW to show you though!
A beautiful collection that I really enjoyed working with…NEW from Memory Box. You knew already, right?! lol
You can stamp your image and then die cut or die cut then stamp on the die cut.
I cut the shape first then stamped on it in the MISTI.
Then the fun begins! There is a stencil set to use for coloring!!!!! For the pinks I used Spun Sugar, Kitsch Flamingo, Picked Raspberry Oxide Inks, then an old Versacolor pigment cube for the darkest… Rose Red #23.
Greens were a trio of Bazzill Dye inks but I had a new set of Altenew I could’ve used laying right there on my desk! ugh. I will link to them.
The light blue was Speckled Egg, Savage Patina and the brush for Peacock Feathers without inking it. All oxides.
For the yellow flower I used Antique Linen, Mustard Seed and Fossilized Amber oxide and the brown oxide brush for the center without reinking it.
I am really happy with how it turned out…you know how it is…at several points during the process I was thinking this is not going to work! lol
So after I finished stenciling it I put it in the NEW 3D Cheerful Floral 3D embossing folder! oh wow! That just added so much! I taped it in place in the folder. It shifted a little so next time I’m thinking maybe just go half way, stop and run it through from the opposite end half way.
I used the Memory Box Rectangle Double Border Hot Foil Plate for the base panel…started with 4 ½ in x 6 ¼ in panel but ended up trimming the top and bottom. It will still fit in an A6 envelope.
I think it’s nice to have a bigger than A2 size for super special cards sometimes! Let’s go Hallmark! lol
I used some ribbon from Stampin Up from who knows how many years ago and the sentiment from Birch Press Design Celebrate Today Noted Script hot foil plate and die set in gold foil.
I mounted the floral piece with some of the thin mounting tape I love! then the ribbon, then the sentiment mounted with the same thin mounting tape. It should still travel for one stamp!
Holler if you have any questions! I’m going to link up what I used below. If you’re tempted to get this collection, I say go for it! You’ll have fun and end up with beautiful cards without all the time coloring! Win! Win!
Linking to some card challenges…
