Happy Sunday folks – hope you’re enjoying the weekend.
Today I wanted to share a couple of clean and simple cards made with the Abstract Impressions stamp set from Stampin’ Up!
The first is another card we made at my classes / workshops last week. I love the colour combo of Flirty Flamingo, Blushing Bride and Lemon Lime Twist – so fresh and vibrant. This stamp set has a selection of pretty floral two and three step stamps. For class I kept it simple using two of the three stamps for the largest flower and a couple of the leave stamps.
The next colour combo is Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo and Old Olive. This is one of the combo’s in the Stampin’ Up! Colour Coach, which I find a useful tool if I have trouble deciding which colours to put together. I limit my palette to three or four colours as this works for my clean and simple style.
The base for both measures 10.5cm x 29.8cm, scored @ 14.9cm. The next layers measure 8cm x 12.5cm and 7.5cm x 12cm. I also stamped the inside (10cm x 14.4cm) and an envelope to match.
Click below to watch the video of how I made the second card. I added some of the smaller two step flower.
After I made the video I moved the sentiment as it was covring up the pretty twine too much and I added a few silver metallic pearls to the centre’s of the smaller flowers. I’m so sorry the video is a bit blurry – I will invest in some proper equipment as my Samsung A3 seems to be struggling with focus recently. I’d love to hear what you think about the video or my blog so leave me a comment? I will share more cards made with this lovely stamp set and dies soon.
