This card was my design team sample for CASE Study 96 which was a few weeks ago, I am playing a little catch up here on my blog as it was posted on the CASE Study site in time but I slipped up on posting it here. I think it is a fun card I have created using a technique called faux dry embossed background using the cupcake punch to create clouds. I am totally in LOVE and I mean LOVE with the plated ribbon which comes in 4 colours Baja Breeze {I have used} Riding Hood Red, Pear Pizzazz and Blushing Bride, they are in the Autumn Winter Mini Catalogue on page 12 so I suggest ordering some before the mini ends at the end of July.
The stamp set I have used is a hostess set called Ain’t Love Grand, you can only get yours on this set if you host a Stampin’ Up! Party and select this set as part of your fabulous hostess rewards and GREAT news Stampin’ Up! have continued the We love hostess promotion for the full month of July so if your party is over $650 you get a massive $190 free product and a half prize item read more about it below. You can notice in the next picture of the card inside I have used a marker to colour the image and left the greeting out so the persons name can go inside, you can also use this idea for the front of the card and stamp in a small greeting that suits your occasion better like happy birthday, I need to have a play and see what fits.
Materials used all from Stampin’ Up!
Stamps: Ain’t Love Grand
Ink: Basic Black, VersaMark, Going Grey {retired} and Baja Breeze
