Card Details:
Card Base: Whisper White Thick Cardstock cut to 6 in x 8 in and scored / folded at 4 in to create a rectangle, which was a requirement of the challenge..but I think it worked well with the layout I chose. I actually stamped my layout first and then built the background off of it.
I took a piece of Pacific Point Cardstock and cut it 1/8 in (3.875 in x 5.875 in) smaller than the card base, then adhered it Snail Adhesive.
The stamp set I used on this card is Flourishing Phrases. The two floral images were stamped with Versamark onto Watercolor Paper, covered in White StampinÂ’ Emboss Powder and then melted with the Heat Tool. Prior to stamping the images, I ran the Embossing Buddy over the Watercolor Paper to remove the static and prevent any stray powder from sticking to the paper. Although on this project, strays probably would have been ok.
After letting the embossed images cool, I added several layers of Pacific Point color to the Watercolor Paper with an Aqua Painter. I wanted the color to be Vibrant so I let the Aqua Painter grab a lot of ink and generously applied it with just enough water to saturate. After letting the color soak in, I then wiped the ink off the embossed image to make the white pop.
The With Sympathy Sentiment was stamped on Whisper White Cardstock, cut to size and the flagged end was created with the Banner Triple Punch.
I added the Whisper White Solid Bakers Twine and secured it with a bow. Then then final touch was applying several Glitter Enamel Dots in various shades of the blue tones.
The Watercolor Paper was adhered with Foam Adhesive Strips for an extra lift off the card base.
