While I was creating with Blackberry Bliss, and the Gorgeously Made bundle, for this week's Colour Creations blog hop, I decided to make a second card. It's a very simple design, allowing the dramatic colour of the background to be the star of the card.
Starting off with a piece of paper from the Stargazing Designer Series Paper pack, I stamped the leafy design around the edges in Blackberry Bliss ink. I sponged Blackberry Bliss ink around the paper edges, then mounted this piece on a Basic White mat, and a Blackberry Bliss card base.
The sentiment, from the Hope You Know stamp set, was stamped in Versamark ink on Basic White card, and heat-embossed in silver, then cut out using a Labels Aglow Die. Before adhering the sentiment label, I tucked behind it a Basic White leafy die-cut, created with the Gorgeously Made Dies.
I used the Dark Blackberry Bliss Stampin' Blends marker to colour a length of silver 1/8" trim, and created a bow. A few Rhinestone Basic Jewels were added to finish off my card.
Here's a close-up of the silver heat-embossed sentiment. Even after 25 years of card-making, I find the result of heat-embossing a real "wow".
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.
