I was inspired to create today’s card after seeing the current challenge at Sunday Stamps.  I cut one of the designs from the Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper into card front sized pieces.  I took one of these panels and trimmed .5cm from the bottom of the panel.  I cut the remaining panel in half diagonally and attached it to scored and folded Thick Whisper White card.  I cut Whisper White card using one of the squares from the Layering Squares Dies.  I used post it notes to create a narrow central panel and stamped the greeting from the Ornate Thanks stamp set using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  With the masks still in place, I lightly sponged over the area using a sponge and Petal Pink ink.  I replaced the masks so that the stamped panel was covered and stamped the single daisy from the Ornate Style stamp set using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  I stamped one image and covered it with a post-it-note mask and then stamped the second image.  I covered the second image with a post-it-note mask and stamped the third image.  I coloured the flowers using Petal Pink and Light Mango Melody Stampin’ Blends.  I removed the mask rotated the image panel and once more covered the greeting panel.  I stamped the single daisy from the Ornate Style stamp set twice using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured the images using the same Stampin’ Blends. I cut a scalloped square from Gold Foil card using the Layering Squares Dies and attached the stamped image panel.  The whole piece is attached to the card front using dimensionals.

To decorate the inside of the card, I placed a post-it-note across the bottom of Whisper White card.  I stamped and masked the daisy image from the Ornate Style stamp set three times using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.  I coloured the images using Petal Pink, Mint Macaron and Light Mango Melody Stampin’ Blends.  The narrow .5cm piece of Designer Series Paper I trimmed from the piece on the front of the card, is attached across the bottom of the stamped flowers.

I love this piece of the Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series paper.  The Mint Macaron colour looks amazing with the gold embossing.  I’d love to know what you think.

Bye for now,

Kris
