STAMPIN' UP! SYMPATHY CARD IN LOST LAGOON

 

For this week's blog hop, we (all Stampin' Up! demonstrators in Australia) are sharing projects featuring Lost Lagoon, a beautiful bluish-green in Stampin' Up!'s colour range.  

I have teamed Lost Lagoon with Pool Party and Basic White, to create a sympathy card with a leafy theme.

How beautiful is that patterned paper, from the Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper pack?

I stamped the sentiment, from the Hope You Know stamp set, in Lost Lagoon ink on Basic White card.  One of the Scalloped Contours Dies was used to cut it out.

To the top of the panel of DSP, I added a Basic White piece of card that had been embossed using the Fern 3D embossing folder.  A strip of Pool Party card, die-cut with a long edge of a Scalloped Contours Die, was added as a border before adhering this piece to the background.

I used a Gorgeous Garden Die to cut some Lost Lagoon Soft Shimmer Paper (I am hoping you can see it glisten a little in this close-up picture).  Using paper snips, I cut out just the leaves I wanted to use on my card.  I'd applied Adhesive Sheet to the back of the Shimmer Paper before cutting, so the leafy sprays were easy and clean to add to my card, once I'd peeled off the backing paper.  A bow made from Pool Party Grosgrain Ribbon, and some Lost Lagoon Tinsel Gems and Iridescent Pearls, finish off my card.
