Stamp, Ink, Paper Challenge 154

Todays’ card is created using the sketch challenge at Stamp, Ink Paper. I embossed the top half of Very Vanilla card using the Layered Leaves Dynamic Embossing Folder before stamping the open leaf image from the Healing Hugs stamp set onto the lower left hand corner using Granny Apple Green. The embossed panel is attached to scored and folded Mango Melody card. I stamped two sets of the double leaf image from the Healing Hugs stamp set onto Very Vanilla card using Granny Apple Green ink and cut them out. I also stamped the flower from the same stamp set onto Very Vanilla card using Mango Melody ink and cut it out. I attached one set of leaves over the stamped leaves and the other set behind the flower, which is also attached to the card front. I stamped the greeting from the Healing Hugs stamp set onto Very Vanilla card using Granny Apple Green ink and attached the greeting to Mango Melody card. The greeting is attached to the card front, partially covering the leaves and the flower image using dimensionals.
To decorate the inside of the card, I stamped the small floral image three times onto the lower left hand corner of Very Vanilla card using Granny Apple Green ink.
This is a gorgeous colour combination and I love the slightly vintage look you get when you use Very Vanilla card. I nearly always overlook Very Vanilla in favour of Whisper White but at the moment I am waiting on an order and I don’t have any Whisper White card to use, so you might see me use it a little more over the next week or so till my order comes in.
Did you notice that the beautiful flower and the double leaf in the Healing Hugs stamp set are Distinktive stamps which means that you only need one colour of ink to create shade and depth. Remember the Heartfelt Blooms stamp set which was available during Sale-A-Bration earlier this year, well this one is the same type. In fact there are several of these stamp sets in the catalogue, so keep an eye out for them.
Bye for now,
Kris
