#stampinup #faithfulinkspirations #saleabration2017 I’m on a roll! I’ve got yet another card to share that uses the “Avant Garden” stamp set–and it’s different than the ones I’ve shared every other day this week. And hold onto your hats! Tomorrow I’m going to share yet another card that uses “Avant Garden”–well, actually, more than one card. Come back tomorrow and see what I have for you, but keep reading to learn about today’s card.
This is another card that we made at the Proverbial Stampers gathering. I really love these colors–they’re so fresh together! We started by embossing a 3-7/8″ by 5-1/8″ piece of So Saffron Card Stock with the Hexagons Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. Then we stamped the sprinkles from the “Avant Garden” set in Tangerine Tango Ink onto a 1″ by 5″ strip of Tangerine Tango Card Stock. Next, we stamped the small leaves in Mint Macaron around the perimeter of a 2-1/2″ by 3-1/2″ piece of Mint Macaron Card Stock.
The main image is stamped onto a piece of Whisper White Card Stock that was cut with one of the Stitched Shape Framelits. The flowers are So Saffron with Tangerine Tango stamens; the sentiment is Tangerine Tango; and the small leaves are Mint Macaron.
We adhered the embossed piece to a So Saffron Card Stock card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then we adhered the Tangerine Tango strip and Mint Macaron piece to the card. I like to use Fast Fuse Adhesive when adhering a flat piece to an embossed piece. I think Fast Fuse makes it stick better. Finally, we adhered the stamped circle to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Isn’t this card sweet? This is a color combination that I never would have thought up on my own, but I really like it, don’t you?
