Four Ways

The cards I am sharing today use the Incredible Like You stamp set and Garden Impressions 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. I cut the paper using a template that I found online. You line up one 6″ edge on the paper trimmer at 10cm and cut down the length of the paper and then rotate it 90 degrees and cut at 10cm. You take the 10cm square piece and cut it on the diagonal to create two triangles. The long piece needs to be trimmed down to a length of 14.3cm. Fairly simple isn’t it? Now you have four pieces of paper for the four cards.
I embossed the Whisper White card using the Dot to Dot Embossing folder (from the Occasions Catalogue) before attaching to scored and folded Melon Mambo card. I cut Petal Pink card using one of the dies from the Delicate Lace Edgelit Dies and attached the die cut behind one edge of the Designer Series paper. The Designer Series Paper is attached to the embossed card. To create the image panels, I cut Whisper White card using one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies (from the Occasions Catalogue) and stamped a greeting onto the bottom of the card using Shaded Spruce ink.
Three of the greetings are from the Incredible Like You stamp set and one (Happy Birthday) is from the Special Celebration stamp set. I stamped the first flower using Petal Pink ink and Melon Mambo ink, firstly stamping the darker Melon Mambo image so that it is easier to line up the solid lighter image. I stamped the solid image onto a post it note and cut it out and placed the post-it-note image over the stamped image. I stamped the flower once more using the same inks and again placed a post-it-note image over the top. I stamped the solid leaf using Soft Sea Foam ink and the detailed leaf using Shaded Spruce ink. Once the post-it-notes are removed, the image panel is attached to the card front using dimensionals.
To decorate the inside of the card, I attached the lace edge behind a narrow piece of Whisper White card embossed using the Dot to Dot Embossing Folder, before attaching the panel to the bottom of Whisper White card.
I really love how these cards turned out. What about you? Are you excited to be able to purchase this stamp set? It really is pretty amazing.
Bye for now,
