The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store - Painted Flower Just for You Card

Hello Blogging friends!  Today, is my day to post for The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store.  I have a quick and easy card to share with you using one of the sentiments from Stamp Simply Clear Stamps - SS-Sent001 Wedding Wishes and Altenew - Painted Flower Clear Stamps.  One of the things I love about the Altenew - Painted Flower Clear Stamps is that you have a couple of different options with this set.  You can do the multi-step stamping to get the beautiful layers of color for the images or you can do just the outline.  I have plans for an upcoming card with just the outline images. :)


Here is a look at the card I designed.  Another thing that I love about this stamp set is how easy it is to line up BUT if by chance you don't get it lined up exactly that's ok too--it still looks fantastic!  I started with a white card front and stamped the images of the flower using Altenew - Shaded of Purple - Lavender Fields and Deep Iris for the flowers and Memento - New Sprout and Bamboo Leaves for the leaves.  Then I went over the images with the outline stamp using Memento - Black Tuxedo ink. Then I inked the outer edges with Altenew - Shaded of Purple - Soft Lilac ink.  I am also really loving the Altenew inks.  When you stamp with them the color is a bit darker and sometimes the image might look a little splotchy but as the inks dry the color smooths out and becomes a little lighter.


After I had the card front done then I stamped the Just for You sentiment from the Stamp Simply Clear Stamps - SS-Sent001 Wedding Wishes set on to some white cardstock and then die cut using the Spellbinders Labels Thirty-Six die.  I also used a piece of black cardstock and die cut a second label shape for layering.  I used Therm-O-Web Foam Squares in between the layers for some extra dimension.  Then I layered a black mat to the card front.  I added some Black Seam Binding around the middle of the card and added a bow.  To finish off the card I added a few flowers from the Prima Laraine Black Tie Flowers collection and some Melissa Frances Black/Silver Pearls.


Thank you so much for joining me today and I hope you enjoyed the card share.   Have a wonderful weekend!
