Hi! Today I am playing along in the Go For Greece Training Group Blog Hop! I joined this group this year to work on building my business and earn a trip to GREECE!! I still have a long way to go to earn the trip, but through sales, recruiting and team building, I am making some head way.
For today’s card, I am showcasing the Eclectic Expressions Sale-A-Bration stamp set.
I just LOVE this card – from the color combination to the layout – it is one of my favorites that I created for last Friday’s Sale-A-Bration Gone Wild class. For colors, I paired Fresh Fig, Rose Red and Smoky Slate. The stamps in this set are so versatile and can be used for all kinds of cards for young ones, old ones, males and females. I great set to have in your collection!
The stamped panel measures 3 3/4″ x 5″ and is layered on a Fresh Fig card stock layer measuring 4″ x 5 1/4″. The base is Smoky Slate, measuring 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″ on the 8 1/2″ side.
The Dragonfly is die-cut using the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlets from Basic Black card stock. He is then covered in Clear Wink of Stella for a sparkly look. Here is close up of him:
So pretty!!! The sentiment is stamped in Basic Black Archival Ink on a scrap of Whisper White card stock and the end is punched with the Triple Banner punch. This is layered on a piece of Fresh Fig card stock also punched with the Triple Banner Punch. I found it easier to punch my Whisper White sentiment panel first and then use that as a guide for punching the Fresh Fig layer.
