Stampin with Shirley G

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Floral stamp set.  I also used a polka dot embossing folder, long tired.

My inspiration for today’s card comes from the color in the mood board and the flowers in this week’s Just Us Girls Challenge challengeJust Us Girls Challenge.  

I started with a Basic White card stock card base with a piece of Basic White card stock embossed partially using a polka dot embossing folder.  The embossed panel is adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Using stamps from Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora stamp set, I stamped three flowers in Polished Pink,  Highland Heather, and Gorgeous Grape ink and cropped using a die from the Two-Tone Flora Dies.  I stamped in the leaves in Shaded Spruce ink on a piece of Mint Macaron card stock and again using dies from Two-Tone Flora Dies I cropped them.

 I embossed a strip of Gorgeous Grape card stock using the Quatrefoil Embossing Folder.  I then adhered the strip over the Basic White embossed panel at the halfway point between the plain and the embossed.  Over this Gorgeous Grape strip, I popped the flowers and leaves.  Several Iridescent Sequins are popped around the card front.  A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet stamp set is stamped in Versa Mark on a Gorgeous Grape strip, sprinkled with Basic White Embossing Powder, and heat set using a heat tool.

I stamped a flower & leaves from Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Floral stamp set in Polish Pink and Shaded Spruce ink on a Basic White card stock panel.  I adhered this panel to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A Basic White envelope gets a flower from Stampin’ Up! Two-Tone Flora stamp set stamped in Polished Pink ink to the envelope flap.

I finally had to bite the bullet as former Governor Zell Miller used to say here in Georgia.  My computer crossed over that cyber bridge and is no more so I had to buy a new one. It will not turn on and the Geek Squad could not repair it.   To me that is traumatic, I had the other one for so long and was used to using it. I’ve spent the past week trying to get it all set up and never realized how many apps you have that you depend on.  Writing this blog, I had to stop and download several apps that I use in writing my blog. I  believe we take too much for granted when using a computer.  I am hoping this one will be sufficient for the task.
