A nother pretty card using retiring Stampin' Up! products to let someone know you are thinking of them.
Project Recipe
Cut cardstock pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Petal Pink Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 3-3/4" x 5" from Petal Pink Cardstock
Mount the bunch of flowers and stems image from the Touches of Texture Set on Block I. Ink it up with the Soft Suede Ink Pad and stamp it on the left side of the rectangle of Petal Pink Cardstock so the top is about 3/4" from the top of the cardstock.
Mount the large, densely textured blob image from the Touches of Texture Set on Block D. Ink it up with the Petal Pink Ink Pad. Stamp it over the lower portion of the stamped flowers and stems image so it will "color in" most of the flowers.
Mount the medium, densely textured blob image from the Touches of Texture Set on Block B. Ink it up with the Petal Pink Ink Pad. Stamp it over the top right flowers of the stamped flowers and stems image so it will "color in" the flowers. Let it overlap the previously stamped blob image a bit.
Mount the tiny, densely textured blob image from the Touches of Texture Set on Block A. Ink it up with the Petal Pink Ink Pad. Stamp it over the top of the buds of the stamped flowers and stems image so it will "color in" the buds. Remember to re-ink the stamp each time. It's okay if it overlaps some of the previously stamped blobs.
Use the Pear Pizzazz Marker to color in the leaves of the stamped flowers and stems image.
Mount the sentiment of choice from the Ribbon of Courage Set on an appropriately sized block. Ink it up with the Soft Suede Ink Pad. Stamp the sentiment in the upper right corner of the stamped Petal Pink rectangle.
Adhere the stamped and colored Petal Pink rectangle to the front of the Petal Pink card.
Cut a 3" piece of the Petal Pink/Whisper White 5/8" Variegated Ribbon so the ends are sharp angles.
Cut a 5" piece of the pearlized thread from the Share What You Love Embellishment Kit.
Tie the thread tightly around the center of the ribbon to pinch the center of the ribbon together. Use a knot to tie off the thread and trim the ends.
Use a Mini Glue Dot to adhere the pinched ribbon to the front of the card so the pinched portion of the ribbon is centered over the stems at the bottom of the stamped flowers and stems image.
Carefully peel up one of the seals from a sheet of Floral Romance Seals being sure to get the adhesive backing as well. Adhere the seal to the card front over the pinched center of the ribbon.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 2 Grapefruit Grove and 3 Petal Pink pearls from a sheet of Share What You Love Artisan Pearls making sure that you get the adhesive backings as well. Adhere the pearls to the centers of the flowers.
