DREAMS DU JOUR IN SPRINGTIME VINTAGE

Good Morning and welcome! Good heaven’s I can’t believe that it’s Wednesday already! Time sure flies when one is having fun!

I’m playing with the Stamping 411 sketch today. This is a great sketch with lots of “white space” so one can be really creative in making a project with this one.

This card can be used as a Valentine greeting, birthday, or a “just because” greeting.

I used pieces from the new Springtime Vintage Designer paper and paired it with Dreams du Jour. The theme is love and I have Valentine’s Day in mind for this.

Both images were first stamped with Not Quite Navy Classic ink and then overstamped with Versamark.(Don’t forget to use the embossing buddy first to get rid of any static). I then sprinkled Clear Embossing Powder over them and heat set.

The Aqua Painter was used to fill in a little color to make the images pop. Both images were cut out with paper snips. I used the 1-1/4″ Square Punch to make the Not Quite Navy mat for the “love” image. A few Stampin’ Dimensionals popped them up on the card. The length of “ribbon” was made with the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch and I added a bow all done up with an Antique Brad using the Seam Binding Ribbon.
