The Full Of Love Stamp Set has wonderful images of flowers and envelopes. This is a perfect set for card makers, because we love sending cards in envelopes! Because it’s Fall, for today’s card, I used Stampin’ Blends to color the bouquet in Fall colors: Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, Cajun Craze, Calypso Coral, and Daffodil Delight. If you look closely, you’ll see some white spaces, which was intentional. Sometimes it’s nice to give “breathing space.”

After coloring the image on Basic White Cardstock, I used the largest, plain, Layering Circles Die for cutting. Then, I used the largest, scalloped, Layering Circles Die to cut Basic Black Cardstock, glued the two together, and placed it on Dimensionals.

Full Of Love

Next, I cut a piece of  Vellum Layering Designs, 4″ X 5 1/4″, and glued it to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. This vellum has white script, for a subtle tie-in with the envelope.

The strip behind the circle is Cottage Gingham Designer Paper, 4″ X 2 1/4″. 

The sentiment is from the Full Of Love Stamp Set, stamped in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock. After stamping, I used a Sending Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals.

Finally, I stamped a single flower, which I fussy cut, colored it with Stampin’ Blends, and attached it with a Dimensional.

I was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches.
