3rd Card by Carol Celeste
Happy Anniversary
Supplies:
White Cardstock
Stamp Sets by Paper Smooches - Flowers: Calico; Sentiment: Good Gab
Inks: Versa Magic Chalk Inks and Archival Jet Black Ink
Rhinestones
The “Calico” stamp set is a flower builder set. The flowers layer inside one another. To make building the flowers easier, I marked a spot on each stamp to know how to layer the flowers.
To create this card, I cut a strip of paper 1 ¼ inches wide and secured it across the card (a bit lower that center). Then I stamped the main flowers (in threes) trying to create a flow from top left to bottom right. When I peeled off the mask, I was left with the blank area for the sentiment. I debated about “defining” the sentiment space with the black lines or leaving it more open. I opted for the lines. Two hearts to “Dot the I”; a bit of blink in the center of each flower, and it’s done!
Great Job Carol! I love the way you peeled off the mask!
Very pretty!!
ReplyDeleteThis card is beautiful. I don't understand how the stamps work?
ReplyDeleteHi Antonella, They are kind of like "nesting dolls" - one fits inside the other, so you can change the layers of color. But they are not symmetrical - that is why once I found how they "fit together" without gaps, I marked them with a permanent marker -- So I know how to fit them when I use them again. Does that help?
DeleteVery pretty!
