……..stamp sets to finish a special greeting card! I originally wanted to play along with The Paper Players clean and simple floral challenge but am not sure that this card qualifies as clean and simple.
I guess it really depends on the person creating it. I really like the way it turned out and especially love the Hardwood Background stamp(yes, it will be in the new 2014-2015 Catalogue!). I used Soft Suede ink for the background and then tucked it inside the Woodgrain Embossing folder to add a little realistic texture. Love that way it feels!
I played around again with the new Stampin’ Up! Blendabilities on the flower – it takes practice to work with these cool new colouring tools! NOTE: The Blendabilities are available only to Demonstrators as a pre-order right now BUT they will be available to customers sometime this summer. I will certainly keep you updated as we learn more.
