#stampinup #faithfulinkspirations I love the sentiments in Patty Bennett’s “Ribbon of Courage” stamp set. Patty Bennett? Who’s that? Well, she’s a Stampin’ Up Million Dollar Earner and one of the nicest people on the planet!! When you earn $1 Million with Stampin’ Up, you get to design your own stamp set. How cool is that?! Patty’s design is fabulous–just like Patty!
I started by stamping one of the sentiments from the “Ribbon of Courage” set in Fresh Fig Ink onto a piece of Whisper White Card Stock. I cut this out with one of the Stitched Shapes Framelits, keeping the sentiment off to the right. I also cut a scalloped circle mat with a Layering Circles Framelit.
Next,
I stamped the heart from the same set in Fresh Fig Ink and cut it out
with one of the Support Ribbon Framelits. I colored elements of the
design with three of the 2017-2019 In Color Stampin’ Write
Markers–Powder Pink, Berry Burst, and Lemon Lime Twist.
I
ran a 3-3/4″ by 5″ Whisper White panel through the Big Shot with the
Brick Wall Embossing Folder and cussed a little under my breath (I
probably said dingity-dang!) when I saw that it was crooked. Then I
decided I liked it that way! I adhered it to a 3-7/8″ by 5-1/8″ Berry
Burst mat. I wrapped a length of 5/8″ Berry Burst Crinkled Seam Binding
Ribbon around this element before adhering it to a Fresh Fig Card Stock
card base.
I adhered the circle element to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals and added the heart element to the circle, also with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stacked two Dimensionals on the left side of the heart so that it would touch the brick wall background.
I love the way this card turned out. It’s going to be perfect to send it to someone who needs a bit of encouragement!
