Stampin Up Garden In Bloom in Sahara and Black

Hi card making friends, my share today is created with the Stampin Up Garden in Bloom in Sahara and Black.

We have a color challenge this week!  I must say, I found this one extremely difficult, I’m a “Brights” kind of gal, LOL…you may have noticed!… LOL…

Sandi’s Tips & Tricks:

• This is a super easy, 10 minute or less card that looks lovely in just about any ink color, but for today, we are limited to Sahara Sand and Black….
• Stamp the large flower in Sahara Sand and then use the two step outline stamp and stamp that in Memento Black.
• I also stamped an additional flower on a scrap of Whisper White and cut it out so I could use it as an overlay.
• Stamp the leaves in just the outline also in Memento Black.
• I took the small ink splatter stamp from Timeless Textures to add some “background noise”
• Mount the art piece to the mat and then to the Thick Whisper White card base.
• Stamp the sentiment on the strip of Sahara Sand and attach it to the card front.
• Use a Dimensional to attach the cut out flower.
• Embellish with some Neutral Candy Dots.

• Card Base:  Thick Whisper White 4-1/4 x 11, score and fold at 5-1/2 – Basic Black Mat 3-7/8 x 5-1/8
• Art Piece:  Whisper White 3-3/4 x 5, additional 2-1/2 Square piece to stamp and cut out a flower
• Sentiment:  Sahara Sand 1-1/2 x 4
