For this week’s Global Design Project I chose a “Distinktive” stamp set, You Are Beautiful, from the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog. By stamping-off the leaves and berries, I was able to achieve a lighter shade of Old Olive Ink on the Soft Sea Foam Cardstock. Stamping-off means inking your stamp, then stamping two times without re-inking.  After stamping, I used the second largest Perennial Postage Die for cutting. 

“You are a shining light”

Next, I used Textured Floral Dies to cut the branch (Old Olive Cardstock) and berries (Calypso Coral Cardstock), and doubled them for thickness.

“You are a shining light”  is from the You Are Beautiful Stamp Set, stamped in Old Olive Ink on Basic Beige Cardstock, and cut with the second smallest Perennial Postage Die. I glued the berries to the sentiment label, along with a 1 5/8″ X 1/4″ strip of Calypso Coral Cardstock.

The background is Country Woods Designer Paper, 4″ X 5 1/4″, embossed with the Timber Embossing folder, and glued to a Basic Beige card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

Prior to gluing the green stamped layer to the embossed timber layer, I tied Linen Thread around the green layer, and added a bow. Then, I glued the die-cut branch, and attached the sentiment label with Dimensionals. To complete the design, I added three Brushed Brass Butterflies.
