Timeless Tropical Recessed Window Cards
The large floral image in the Timeless Tropical stamp set are so fun to color! You can use Stampin' Blends Markers, Aqua Painters and Refill Inks, Blender Pens and Ink Pads, Watercolor Pencils and even sponging to add color to these lovely images! Today, I'm using my favorite coloring medium…Stampin' Blends!
Background Basics—This card begins with a Thick Whisper White card base measuring 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 5-1/4". Next, I die-cut a 5" x 3-3/4" piece of Pool Party with an oval from the Layering Ovals dies, then embossed it with the Coastal Weave Embossing Folder. This layer is popped up with Dimensionals, but I waited to adhere it until after I stamped my sentiment.
Lovely Flower—I stamped the large flower and the leaf images from the Timeless Tropical set in Soft Suede ink onto Whisper White scrap, then colored them in with Stampin' Blends Markers. The leaves are first colored with Light Granny Apple Green, then I added Light Old Olive to the veins. The flower is colored first with Light Pumpkin Pie, then shaded with Light and Dark Flirty Flamingo for a lovely watercolor look. I die-cut all of the images with the In The Tropics dies.
Sweet Sentiment—Once I had all of my focal point pieces, I positioned everything over the card front, so I knew exactly where to stamp my Timeless Tropical sentiment in Soft Suede. After that was stamped, I mounted the oval window layer with Dimensionals. I finished with a single Champagne Rhinestone next to the greeting.
Assembling The Flower—I added a couple of Braided Burlap Trim pieces to the back of the flower with Tear & Tape Adhesive, fraying the ends just a bit. The flower is attached with Tear & Tape and a couple of Dimensionals for the part that overlaps the recessed window. The leaves are added with Tear & Tape. I finished by adding some shimmery Wink of Stella to the flower to balance the sparkle of the rhinestone.
Two Cool—On the second card, I tried a vertical orientation and a Petal Pink background. The recessed window was die-cut with the Layering Circles dies this time. Before mounting the background, I tied some Braided Linen Trim around the layer and frayed the ends.
Lovely Flower—This time I colored the flower with Light & Dark Pool Party and Light Bermuda Bay Stampin' Blends, with a Mango Melody center. It's brushed with Wink of Stella and the sentiment is accented with a Pool Party gem from the Holiday Rhinestones.
