STAMPIN' UP! UNIQUELY ARTISTIC "HELLO" CARD IN TAHITIAN TIDE

Today I am sharing the second card I made, featuring Tahitian Tide - one of Stampin' Up!'s beautiful new In Colors, that will be in our range for two years.

For this card, I inked up the Uniquely Artistic stamp set, stamping the outline leafy image twice in Tahitian Tide, and once in Memento Tuxedo Black, ink on Basic White card.  I cut out the stamped piece using a Fabulous Frames Die.  I think this frame shape and the embossed details are lovely.

I cut the largest Fabulous Frames from a piece of Basic Black card, and used only the inner piece as the base for my stamped frame.  As you can better see from this photo, I raised the inside portion of the smaller decorative frame on Stampin' Dimensionals:

The Tahitian Tide background panel was embossed using a Thanks & Hello embossing folder.  These are narrow embossing folders, so I embossed half the card front, horizontally, then ran it back through my Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine to emboss the other half.

I stamped the sentiment, from Forever Fern, on a scrap of Basic Black card using Versamark ink.  After heat-embossing it in white, I cropped it using the third and smallest frame from the Fabulous Frames Dies.  A couple of Tahitian Tide Matte Decorative Dots were added either side of the sentiment.

A strip of Tahitian Tide Glimmer Paper adds a bit of sparkle to the bottom of my card front.  I wrapped Black & White Gingham Ribbon around the card layers, before adding a bow made from the same ribbon.

Listed below are all the products I used to make this card.  If you live in Australia, and would like to shop with me for your Stampin' Up! supplies, you can get to my online store by clicking on any of the thumbnail images below.
