Hand Penned Petals Card Sketch

2 Comments

I can tell from this card sketch that I won’t be putting Hand Penned Petals away any time soon. This card was made quick and easy because of three things:

  • Two-step stamping
  • Generational stamping as well as stamping off
  • Punched the sentiment out

Because I saved so much time with the stamping, I splurged and die-cut the white panel out with the die that comes with Positive Thoughts. I also made a bow with the Mossy Meadow linen thread which I bought LOTS of, and the sparkle isn’t showing up here but there’s a Genial Gem on that bow as well. I used the sentiment out of Happy Thoughts and punched it out using the Tailored Tag punch. I also embossing a panel of Pale Papaya using the Painted Texture 3D embossing Folder.

  • Using A Background Stamp

    I like using a Background Stamp instead of another layer of paper.  In my last post here I also showed you how fun it is to cover the envelope flap with some “hint” of what’s inside your envelope! Wasn’t that flap perfect covered in Postscripts? This background stamp, Postscripts, is just large enough for an…

  1. Howdy, Celia,
    This is beautiful. More inspiration for me to try something new!

    Question: Can I use the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss embossing folder in the Big Shot? I have tried every possible combination of plates, etc. and cannot seem to get it to work. Is there a trick or is this type of folder just for the new machine?

    Thank you!
