Here’s another card set we made while on my Stamp Crop & Cruise Retreat. We had 8 returning stampers on this years cruise, and 7 others that I knew, but the remaining guests were completely new to me. Since everyone has different stamping abilities, I like to have a variety of types of cards, so this one was a simple set of 5 cards, that features some easy techniques and created stunning results even for less experienced stampers.
I used the Magnolia Lane Large Specialty Memories & More Cards for the base of the cards. The fact that they come with matching envelopes was a bonus. Each card has a layer of cardstock followed by one of the stunning prints from the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper. Frankly, with this paper, you just can’t go wrong.
This gorgeous print needed nothing more than a simple sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set and a made with the Whisper White Crinkles Seam Binding Ribbon, that was colored with a Stampin’ Blend Marker.
The flowers on this second card were colored in with Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blend Markers and then the whole stamped image was “splattered” with Poppy Parade ink picked up with an aqua painter as shown below.
Card 3 was done similar to card 2, except instead of coloring the flowers with Stampin’ Blends Markers, we used the Aqua Painter to blend colors .
Card 4 features a lovely little scallop die cut from the Painted Labels Dies. It adds such a cute accent. Note the Poppy colored ribbon…that’s the same Whisper White ribbon colored in with Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blend Marker.
The final card in this set features more Stampin’ Blends using the color and shading technique to add depth to the stamped image. Everyone was able to complete these 5 cards in less than 1 hour.
