Totally unexpectedly, I stumbled upon a shoebox swap among stampers in my area today. It sounded like a great way to get away from the business end of this (night and day, it seems) and be a stamper again so I signed up. I'm eager to make new stamping friends :) Here's the card I made and, below, its inspiration.
Products used to make card:
- Card stock used: Melon Mambo (pg 155 IB&C) and Certainly Celery (pg. 157)
- Ink: Melon Mambo (pg. 155)
- Stamp set: "Sincere Salutations" (pg. 143 IB&C)
- Bigz Die "Flowers, Daisies #2" (pg. 199 IB&C).
- 1/2" Polka-Dot Grosgrain Ribbon in Melon Mambo (pg. 182 IB&C)
- Rhinestone Brads (pg. 179 IB&C)
- Designer Series Paper "Flock Together" (pg. 162 IB&C)
Dimensions of cuts to create card in inches:
- Card: 5.5 x 8.5
- Main base on front: 5.25 x 4
- DSP on front: 5.25 x 1.5
- Ribbon: 7.5
- You’ll need 2 coordinating pieces of
card stock 5.5 x 6 to create the Flower Daisies #2 die-cut flower
At convention, my 2nd level downline, Trina Hanson, swapped this gorgeous card that I just fell in love with so I pretty much copied it for my swap with her blessing. Thanks Trina!
