Starting May 1st - Stampin' Up! promotion "Get On Board" with chipboard. Click the link above or see the flyer posted on my blog under Kurrent Promotions for more details.
Today’s card was made for the color challenge on SCS (CC164). Use Basic Black, Purely Pomegranate, and Soft Sky. I have to admit, I am not chirping with happiness at my Kreation. It was truly a challenge, putting these three colors together and I spent a lot of time futzing to get this end result. But with some minor adjustments, I am confident I can provide a better Kreation to share… in the meantime, thanks for looking and visiting my blog today!!
I started this card with a base of Soft Sky from the current In Color collection. I stamped my image from the "Fun & Fast Notes" stamp set in Soft Sky ink. I then stamped the image in Purely Pomegranate as well as Wild Wasabi onto Whisper White cardstock. I carefully snipped around the flower, leaf on the steam and the little blue bird, then mounted them on top of the Soft Sky stamped image (the flower is popped up with a Stampin' Dimensional cut in 1/2). A little silver brad adds a bit of bling to this blue birds flower. I used my floral "Background Basics" stamp to create a pattern below the strip of Basic Black, wrapped in Purely Pomegranate double stitched ribbon. To add another bit of shine, I used a large Silver Hodgepodge brad... these are great for finishing touches!
