The wait is over and the New Catalog is here! Time to show you more of the cool stamps that are now available!
We'll start off with a lovely card I created for my Too Cool Demo Swap last week with the new Friends Never Fade set.
I love purples and greens together, so naturally, I was drawn to the new Concord Crush and Pear Pizzazz In Colors. I've used them here with Melon Mambo on a Shimmery White card stock base. The design was CASEd from Doris Denman.
Stampin' Techniques
I embossed the image twice, once on Concord Crush card stock and once on Shimmery White, using White Craft Ink and White Embossing Powder. On the white card stock piece, I used the Watercolor Splash technique, similar to my previous Fifth Avenue Floral card. After embossing, I spritzed the image with water, then added color to each petal section with a brush.
I only had markers of the Concord and Pear colors, no stamp pads yet, so I colored on the top of my plastic stamp case to create a palette of ink. The flower petals are mailing Melon Mambo, with a touch of Concord Crush, and the center colored in Pear Pizzazz.
Once the splashed image was dry, I cut it out and popped it up with Dimensionals.
Other Card Details: The stamped image is layered on two die-cuts from a brand new Scallop Rectangle Clearlit Die! It's so cute! And, two of them, cut from Shimmery White, and overlapped slightly worked nicely to frame my focal piece. The Old Olive 5/8" Satin Ribbon looks complements the Pear color. The line of petal images is a stamp from the Because I Care Hostess Set, stamped in Craft White.
