Stampin’ Up! Awash in Beauty Thinking of You
My friend’s son home for a visit on their farm. Thank you to the young man holding this flag, he knows the sacrifice that may be called on him to make.
Happy Independence Day everyone. Land of the free because of so many sacrifices for this country throughout the centuries. You are blessed to live in such a land. Many complain about our country but really do not understand how blessed they are to be able to live in a country where they have the right to complain. With all our problems, we are still the best country in the world, if not why do so many risk so much to try and get into our country.
The card I am sharing today is one of six from this panel of Awash in Beauty DSP. I used greetings from the stamp sets in the photo. The DSP does all the work.
My challenge for today is with Use Your Stuff Challenge. Their theme is flowers.
My card base for this card is Granny Apple Green with a mat for the focal panel of Merry Merlot card stock.
A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Flowering Tulips stamp set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a piece of Basic White card stock and cropped using a circle die from the Stylish Shapes Dies. These are becoming my go-to dies for greetings. I added a scrap of a frilly cut-out behind the greeting a piece of ribbon and a bow created using a length of Crumb Cake twine from the Bakers Twine Essential Pack.
Sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Season of Chic, Pansy Patch, and Hello Ladybug is stamped on a Basic White card stock panel. Flowers from Stampin’ Up! Painted Poppies stamp set is stamped in Old Olive ink across the bottom of the panel and colored using Watercolor pencils.
A medium Basic White envelope gets flowers from Stampin’ Up! Painted Poppies stamp set stamped in Old Olive ink to the envelope flap, then colored using Watercolor Pencils.
This is a picture of the six cards created using one panel of the Awash in Beauty DSP. The card top row left has a Mossy Meadow card stock base with a layer of Merry Merlot card stock for a mat. The card top row middle had a Granny Apple card stock base with a Merry Merlot card stock mat. The card top row right has an Old Olive card stock base with a Merry Merlot card stock mat.
The bottom row left has a Merry Merlot card stock base with a Balmy Blue card stock mat. The bottom row middle has a Balmy Blue card stock base with a Mossy Meadow card stock mat. The bottom right has a Granny Apple Green card stock base with a Merry Merlot card stock mat.
