True Love Designer Series Paper

Hi again my stamping friends,

I really do love this True Love Designer Series Paper (#154281) which is black and white and gives you the option of colouring it which is what I have done with the flowers. How vibrant are these colours!!

I have fussy cut and used many of the flowers from this pack for my own cards and for classes, so have found I have many of the flowers from the outside edge of the DSP unused. Of course we don’t like to waste anything, so decided to use the edge flowers for this card, by placing them around the edge of the geometric DSP from the same pack.

The flowers and leaves were coloured with the following Stampin’ Blends - Poppy Parade (#154958), Mango Melody (#154888), Highland Heather (#154887), Rococo Rose (#154900), Melon Mambo (#153112), Calypso Coral (#154881), Magenta Madness (#153106), Pumpkin Pie (#154897), Flirty Flamingo (#154884), Purple Posy (#154896) and Granny Apple Green (#154885). I used the Multipurpose Liquid Glue (#110755) to attach the flowers to the DSP.

The sentiment is from the Peaceful Moments stamp set (#151595). I stamped this with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708), then re-stamped it with VersaMark (#102283) and sprinkled it with Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#109130), then set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). To do the stamping this way you need to use the Stamparatus (#148187), so that you can stamp in exactly the same place each time. This technique allows you to use any colour ink and have it heat embossed. The die to cut the sentiment is from the Potted Succulents dies (#154330). I attached the sentiment to the card with Black Stampin’ Dimensionals (#150893).

The white card for the sentiment and base card is Basic White (#159228). I used the Clear Wink Of Stella Brush (#141897) to add some glitter to the flowers.

I hope your day has been a good one.
