My mother-in-law ordered the new Stampin' Up! Thoughts & Prayers set last month and it finally arrived after being on backorder for forever (seems it's a super-popular set!!). After seeing it in real life I REALLY like this set too - I can see why it's so popular!
I couldn't resist putting it together for her and inking it up to make a couple of cards - hope she doesn't mind!! :o)
Here's one of the cards I made:
I inked up the vine image with SU markers - Barely Banana, Pretty in Pink, Regal Rose and Garden Green then stamped it onto white cardstock.
I added Fruit Punch Stickles to the blossoms for a little sparkle - so pretty in real life!
The sentiment is from my Love Sentiments set - this one is 2 separate stamps - so I stamped the first part onto some So Saffron (SU!) cardstock then cut it out with one of my ribbon tag dies.
The main image was cut out with a rectangle nestability die, then matted with a scalloped rectangle.
All the patterned paper is from the new Basic Grey Porcelain collection - the mini brads are also BG Porcelain.
For the inside of the card I lined it with white cardstock - then re-stamped the vine image.
I didn't re-ink it or anything - just huffed (as in re-moistened the ink on the stamp by breathing on it) on it and stamped it onto the cardstock.
I stamped the second part of the sentiment from theLove Sentiments set onto some pink cardstock and cut this one out with a label die then adhered it in place.
The patterned strip was punched out with SU!'s eyelet border punch (have I already mentioned that I really like this punch? Prolly but it bears repeating - I really like this punch LOL!).
