I found this idea on Patty Bennett's website and simply had to make it. I even commented on it to her on her blog and was pleased when she wrote back to me. She was really pleased when I shared my version with her, that made me feel so good!
What do you think? Isn't this pretty? I really like how it came out and it was really very easy.
- Begin by cutting a mask out of cardstock with your Paper Trimmer. I cut mine 3 inches long and 2 inches wide.
- Next, using our Stamping Sponges (cut into wedges) sponge 2 colors of ink onto Whisper White (5 1/4" x 4"). I used Crisp Canteloupe and Pistachio Pudding. Move your sponge in a circular motion for even coverage, beginning with your sponge on the mask and moving onto the Whisper White.
- I stamped the leaves with Basic Gray, but stamped off TWICE before stamping onto the colors. I believe the new Smoky Slate will be perfect without stamping off, but I haven't ordered mine just yet (new stamps were way more important! LOL)
- Stamp the flowers with Black StazOn and then carefully using our Sponge Dauber add color to the flower.
- Using dimensionals mount the Whisper White onto Pistachio Pudding card base (5 1/2" x 8 1/2" - scored at 4 1/4"). It also looks beautiful on Crisp Canteloupe.
Thank you for looking in today. Have a happy Thursday!
