Mosaic Madness and Artisan Label



I'm so in love with this color combination (Island Indigo and In-color Coastal Cabana).
This is a card I designed for a workshop a few weeks ago.  I used the Modern Mosaic Embossing Folder  #129984 on the Island Indigo card stock.  Then I used the stamp from Mosaic Madness on Coastal Cabana and punched each one out with the Mosaic Punch #131267.  Each one has a Basic Rhinetstone Jewel in the center.  The "Happy Birthday" verse is from Label Love stamp set stamped on Whisper White card stock   It is then punched out with Artisan Label Punch #130920 and trimmed out with Paper Snips. Then I punched out an a Coastal Cabana card stock using the same punch and layered the Happy Birthday verse onto it and attached with Dimensionals to the front of the card.

Too Kind Coastal Cabana


This is the same design of Too Kind, but using different colors.  I used Island Indigo and the new In-Color Coastal Cabana together.  I really like these two colors together.

You're Too Kind



 
I love this new stamp set called Too Kind.  I wanted to teach my customers how to do the two-step stamping using the Stamp-a-ma-jig #101049.  The stamp-a-ma-jig helps you position your stamp image exactly where you want it.  The base of this card is Calypso Coral 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" folded at 4 1/4" and I layered the new In-color Crisp Cantaloupe cardstock by first inserting it into the new Beautiful Boroque Embossing Folder #130917 and running it through the Big Shot.  I attached it with Multipurpose Liquid Glue #110755.  Next, I used the Big Shot and my Labels Collection #125598 to cut out a framelit of Whisper White and then a larger framelit of Calypso Coral.  I stamped the larger flower with the new In-Color Crisp Cantaloupe ink (the lighter color)on the Whisper White card stock, and used the Stamp-a-ma-jig and then used Calyspo Coral (the darker color). Then I stamped the stem with the new In-Color Pistachio Pudding ink. Then I did the smaller flower.
I put Dimensionals on the back of the Whisper White Framelit and layered onto the Calyspo Coral Framelit and attached to my card with Snail Adhesive.  I added Jewels Basic Pearls #119247 to each flower.  I stamped "You're too Kind" with Basic Gray ink.
