Some days one just feels more blessed than other. While it was a crazy and different Christmas Season, I feel so blessed that both of my children could come home for the holidays. Game nights are always a hoot at our house! Throw in a little Moscow Mules (them) and some Chardonnay (me) and things really become interesting.
At any rate I am blessed and I know it so todays card is just an expression of my gratitude and it features the To A Wild Rose stamp set on page 15 of the Annual Catalog.It is Sale-A-Bration time, so if you add this set and the coordinating dies, you can choose a FREE set or paper pack from the Sale-A-Brations catalog.
The To a Wild Rose stamp set is two-step stamp which basically means the stamps coordinate and build on the detail of the image. Using the Stamparatus is very helpful with working with two-step images.
- Begin with a Basic White card base 5 ½ x 8 ½. Score in landscape position at 4 ¼”.
- Using the Stampin Cut and Emboss machine dry emboss a 4 x 5¼” piece of Cherry Cobbler with the Subtle embossing folder.
- On a 3 ½ x 4 ¾ piece of Basic White cardstock, stamp Blessed in Memento Ink near the lower right corner.
- On a scrap piece of white cardstock stamp the outline image of the Rose in Memento Black ink. Next stamp the totally solid rose image in Blushing Bride ink and finally stamp the detailed rose image in Cherry Cobbler ink.
- Using the Wild Rose dies, cut out the Rose. Put three Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the Rose, but do not peel off the adhesive.
- Stamp the leaves outline stamp in Memento Black ink on the card, using the Rose as a guide. Stamp the solid green image of the leaves in Mossy Meadow ink.
- Peel off the Stampin’ Dimensional adhesive and position over the leaves.
- Add three Rhinestones around on the white cardstock.
