A bit different

for me! I don’t usually go with really colourful cards, but I liked this card layout when I found it on Pinterest and decide to use it today. I embossed a panel of Pale Papaya card using the dotted folder from Checks & Dots Embossing Folders and attached it to scored and folded Thick Basic White card. I attached a piece of the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper to the centre of the embossed card. I stamped the greeting from the Encircled in Friendship stamp set onto a narrow strip of Soft Succulent card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

I cut a “v” in the right hand end of the banner and attached it across the card front using dimensionals. I stamped the floral image from the Encircled in Friendship stamp set onto Basic White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured it using the Dark Pale Papaya and Dark Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends. I cut out the image using one of the Layering Circle Dies and attached it to the card front using dimensionals where necessary.

To decorate the inside of the card, I stamped the greeting from the Encircled in Friendship stamp set using Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Basic White card. I stamped the single floral image from the same stamps set beside the greeting using the same ink. I coloured the flower using the Dark Pale Papaya and Dark Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blends before attaching the panel to the inside of the card. The stamped Basic White card is attached to the inside of the Thick Basic White card base. Unfortunately if you are going to use the blends, you need to add an additional panel, otherwise your colouring shows through onto the back of your card!
I’d love to know what you think. Do you like these bright colours together!
Bye for now,
Kris
