Cards that almost always get the most oohs and ahhs are cards that have Night of Navy and Whisper White. This is another card from my 10-10-10 class I held earlier in the week. All of the cards featured a Sale-a-bration item and were super simple to make- they each took 10 minutes or less. I knew I wanted to use the Make a Medallion stamp set (free sale-a-bration choice) and after looking at the design for a bit I decided that the medallion closely resembled on of the prints in the Night of Navy and Whisper White Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper.

Let’s take a closer look
Ha, ha, ha! Look closely at each little part of the medallion… do you see a monkey face? I didn’t notice it until just now! The sweet little sentiment comes from the So in Love stamp set. I stamped it on a 1/2″ strip of Whisper White cardstock, then snipped each end and layered it on a 5/8″ strip of night of navy cardstock and snipped those ends to match. The banner is popped up with a Stampin’ Dimensional.
Stampin’ Studio Tips
- Coordination: They weren’t designed to go together but the Make a Medallion stamp set and the pattern in the Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper coordinate so perfectly.
- Tip: Sometimes trying to get multi-imaged stamps to line up is a bit of a struggle, so I eliminated the struggle by using just one image to make my medallion.
- Sizes: Night of Navy card base is 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored at 4-1/4″. Floral Boutique DSP is 4″ x 5-1/4″. Night of Navy is 4-1/2″ x 3-1/4″. Whisper White is 3″ x 4-1/4″. Scraps were used for the banners
oh my goodness I will never look at the medallion stamp the same way again. I will keep looking for more monkey faces. Great card, quick, easy but elegant
Hi Robyn,
Thanks for your comment. I just had it pointed out to me that someone also sees a reindeer in the image as well. Too funny!
