Color can change the entire mood of a card or take a stamp set from traditional to retro. I used Summer Starfruit, Coastal Cabana (new!) and Real Red to give today’s card and the Lacy & Lovely stamp set a blast of modern style.
This week’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge (MOJO296) was the perfect creative launching pad!
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- Meet your new paper crafting BFF, Stampin’ Up! Candy Dots. They come in all the Stampin’ Up! core colors (Brights, Regals, Subtles, Neutrals) and adhere instantly as a stick on embellishment or can be dressed up with coordinating silver brads (sold separately, #132293).
- Lacy & Lovely stamp set loves Stampin’ Up! circle punches, including the 2 1/2″, 1 3/4″ and 1 3/8″.
- I paper snipped the flower and popped it up on a couple Stampin’ Dimensionals for 3-D vavoom!
- My inspiration for today’s card was the cover of Grandin Road catalog. Fun!
- The skinny strips measure: Coastal Cabana 4 3/4″ x 3/4″ and Real Red 4 1/2″ x 1/2″. The Summer Starfruit horizontal layer measures 4″ x 1 1/4″
