Friday's Card...

For those who don't want to do the Recipe Swap, I always have a kit ready.  It is made up of the same colours & usually along the line of the Recipe Page.

Measurements -
Base Card - Concord Crush - 8 1/4" x 5 7/8" or 21cm x 15cm - Scored down the middle & folded in half
Layer 1 - Poppy Parade - 5 3/4" x 4" or 14.5cm x 10cm
Layer 2 - Whisper White - 5 5/8" x 3 7/8" or 14cm x 9.5cm
Layer 4 - Blushing Bride - 3 7/8" x 2" or 9.5cm x 5cm
Layer 5 - DSP - 3 3/4" x 1 1/2" x 9.5cm x 4cm

Supplies -
Inside Card...
Stamp Set - Fabuloues Florets, Heard from the Heart
Ink - Concord Crush, Blushing Bride, Pear Pizzazz
Cardstock - Whisper White, Concord Crush, Blushing Bride, Poppy Parade
Punches - Scallop Trim Border
Ribbon - 1/2" Polly- Stitched - Blushing Bride
Accessories - Stampin' Dimensionals, Snail Adhesive

Technique - Rock & Roll
Ink your image with a light coloured ink
Ink the edges of this image with a darker coloured ink by rolling edges of the image onto the ink pad
Stamp your image onto your Cardstock
You are able to repeat the above step using yet another darker coloured ink if you wish
For more images of the same stamp, repeat as many times as you like

I punched along both sides of the Blushing Bride Cardstock using the Scallop Trim Border Punch.  Ensure that you punch along the long sides of this piece.  I adhered the piece of DSP to the top of the punched piece of Cardstock with Snail Adhesive, adhered the piece of ribbon along the middle, tucked ends under, tied a knot on the LHS & set aside.

The stem image was stamped direct onto the piece of Whisper White Cardstock with Pear Pizzazz Ink.  The sentiment was inked in Concord Crush Ink & stamped on the side of the Whisper White Cardstock.  This piece was adhered to the piece of Poppy Parade Cardstock & then to the Base Card - Concord Crush with Snail Adhesive.  I then adhered the punched piece of Cardstock to the top of the card, ensuring the piece went down along the bottom.

I applied the Rock & Roll Technique to my flower image, cut around it & applied to the card using Stampin' Dimensionals.

I will admit that I meant to do a background on the piece of Whisper White Cardstock prior to doing my stamping, but forgot all about it until I had put the card together......

Until next time, Happy Stampin'

Vicky, I love this card. I have held off buying this stampset but my resolve is dwindling. Your class ladies are lucky to be able to choose to make the card or the recipe page. Thanks for sharing.
