Painted Petals For The Paper Players

by Joanne James5. January 2015 22:06

I'm back today with a card for this week's challenge over at Pals Paper Arts, where they have this striking colour combination to play with this week:

My card today features another 'sneak peek' (only one more day to go!) - this time of a fabulous new stamp set from the new Spring-Summer seasonal catalogue called 'Painted Petals'. It's a lovely two-step stamp set that has some fabulous sentiments and was perfect for the card I had in mind today:

I used a base of Wisteria Wonder matted with Night of Navy and added a piece of silver striped vellum to this base. I stamped the flowers in Wisteria Wonder and Night of Navy on Whisper White, then stamped the sentiment in Versamark and heat-embossed in silver. I matted this stamped piece in Night of Navy and Wisteria Wonder then adhered this to my base. I added three navy candy dots to the bottom of the vellum panel to add balance to my image. I just love this stamp set and know it's one that is going to get lots more use this season.

That's all from me today - I hope you've all placed your final orders from the current Autumn-Winter catalogue and year-end closeouts, because we are all-change from tomorrow: Sale-A-Bration will be here and Spring-Summer is most definitely on its way!

Back tomorrow with another project; until then, happy stampin'!

Thanks Dawn; I was really attracted to the colour combination this week, although initially struggled to get beyond Mary Fish's fabulous lotus blossom flower card! I think Painted Petals is a lovely set though and the overlaid embossed sentiment works really well.

This card is simply amazing...I love the clean and crisp lines and your stamping is just perfect. The touch of vellum is so stunning. This would be a card I would have to have in my work area and just keep looking at it.....thanks for sharing your talent!

Thanks so much Susan - that's so kind of you to say! I always think it's strange stamping flowers without any green, but I must confess this is one of those cards that I just love too!
