Hello Lovelies!!
I'm very happy to be able to share a card with you today that can be seen in the newest Stamp It! Cards Magazine! This card was actually part of the "Stamp It! 3 Ways" feature where 3 designers are all given the challenge of using the same stamp set so you get to see several different cards you can create using the same set. It wasn't tough duty at all, to create a happy little card using Papertrey's Everyday Button Bits!! These images and sentiments are soooo easy to work with, I tell ya!
Stamp It! Cards is a new special issue from Paper Crafts Magazine and my copy just showed up on my doorstep last night. I have to tell you that if you're looking for some inspiration, this magazine is not to be missed!!! I was BLOWN. A. WAY. by how much creative goodness is packed into this issue, plus if you're a Papertrey Ink fan, this is the issue for you! This issue is positively loaded with cards using Papertrey's products!! LOOOOVE! Run out and get yourself a copy or order it online here -- you won't be sorry you did!! :)
I stamped the leaves image in ripe avocado ink and added berry sorbet and melon berry buttons to serve as the flowers. I love using this image with just a couple of button colors. I think it really makes the colors pop and helps the overall appearance of the card to be more cohesive. I also added a strip of melon berry In Bloom patterned paper, and a teensy bit of melon berry topnotch twill ribbon stitched at the top. Along the bottom, I added a large sweeping scalloped border in berry sorbet and stamped my sentiment in berry sorbet ink. The frame around the image and the dotted paper are both aqua mist card stock, the bottom strip having some Polka Dot Basics II stamped on it. I just love how cheery this card is!
I hope that you're having a fantastic day! I'm wishing you a happy Friday and a simply wonderful weekend, Dearies!! Do something crafty! :)
Much love,
{Sending Birthday Wishes supplies}
