The What Will You Stamp? challenge is featuring the Tropical Chic Stamp Set this week.
The stamp set has great coordinating dies (see my Product List), and I’m glad that this set is carrying over to the new 2019-2020 Stampin’ Up! Catalog.
Fab Friday’s colors were perfect for what I had in mind, and it looks like Amanda (Fab Fri designer) had the same idea.
I began with a Soft Sea Foam card base, topped with Whisper White Cardstock that was cut with the fabulous, 2 1/2″ X 2 1/2″ Tropical Die.
Then, I backed the “window” with Pear Pizzazz Cardstock, and glued it to the card base.
Next, I stamped two flowers in Flirty Flamingo ink on Shimmery White Cardstock, and cut them with their Tropical Die. The flowers have a subtle sparkle in person.
I glued the “stamped-off” flower flat, and placed the “full strength” flower on Dimensionals.
The sentiment, “You are the greatest,” was stamped in Black Memento Ink next to the flowers.
At the bottom of the card front, I stamped the vertical lines, using another stamp from the Tropical Chic Stamp Set.
For a final “tropical” touch, I added a row of tiny pearls.
I completed the card with Whisper White Cardstock and a palm frond on the inside, and a decorated envelope.
Thank you for visiting me today. I enjoyed using this soft color palette withTropical Chic, but it’s great in bright colors too! Keep scrolling to see my Product list, and thank you for shopping!
