Helping Me Grow - Card 3

I really love how this card turned out! Using one of my favorite colours of Neutral cardstock, "Crumb Cake".

After "Aqua Painting" with "Perfect Plum", a touch of "Elegant Eggplant" and "Whisper White", stamping with "Gorgeous Grunge",  I sponged with "Crumb Cake". It has a vintage look, don't you think? Here is a closer look at the painting.

From the side you can see that I popped up the "Thanks" sentiment banner.

On the inside, the touch of blooms turned out differently as the painting was on "Very Vanilla" rather than the "Crumb Cake".

I had a lot of fun creating this card, and realized how much I miss making vintage-like projects.

Hope you are enjoying it too. Thanks you for stopping by today!

Happy Stamping!

Sneak Peek - First Sight Part 3

Even though a person may make a lot of cards, and give them out for all those special occasions, I think to give someone a card for no particular occasion, but just to acknowledge something like friendship, is something that could be done more often. A special friendship should be celebrated at any time; just whenever

So here is one.

Stamping backgrounds is always fun. For this card I used Versamark on the Pink Pirouette, and second stamped the Tip Top Taupe. and Wild Wasabi on the Ornate Tag. For the heart stamp I used the Stampin' Write Markers.

Here's the side view of the card.

For the inside, I stamped the two corners, and I masked the part of the sentiment I didn't want with tape, inked the exposed word 'Friend', removed the tape from the sentiment, and stamped the word. (or you could use your Stampin' Write Basic Black Marker on the word 'Friend/s')

With the exception of the new stamp set, everything I used you will find below.
