You may remember this card I made for Stampin’ Up!® Convention Swaps last year.
I loved the tapestry look the linen background stamp gave and you really cant go wrong with Purple and Olive can you?
The Wild Rose stamp set gives this card the vintage feel as they are more like the old fashioned roses. This set is great value even if it does seem expensive at $69.95 as you get 12 stamps and you can create the loveliest cards with it – it has the large flower as shown on this card as well as stems, leaves and rosebuds and most have two stamps per image being a 2 step stamp set. The sentiment is from the Define Your Life stamp set which contains 28 stamps and it might be an idea to purchase this set too as the price may increase in the new catalogue due to the state of the exchange rate of the US Dollar.
One of my Stamp A Stack groups wanted to do this card but they wanted to do it with burgundy or red in place of the eggplant as they already had a eggplant/olive card chosen for today.
Here is what we are making today. Funny how those Cherished Teddies always seem to sneak into my photo’s!
This photo really doesnt do this card justice as I’m so happy with how changing a couple of colours has given this card such a fresh new look.
I’ve changed the mellow moss panel to using a piece from last years Enchante Designer Series Paper which it seems I still seem to have a few sheets of and I do love it so much.
The roses are done in Bravo Burgundy with the leaves done in Old Olive.
I do hope you like this card and if you’d like to see the Wild Rose set in action give me a call to arrange your demonstration. I wonder if we will get to keep this stamp set or if it will be on the Retired Stamps list due out 1st March.
Better get organised and off to my Stamp A Stack. Pop back later tonite or tomorrow for the Diva Sketch Challenge card.
