Creating a Slimline Card with Stampin'Up! Botanical Layers Stamp Set
June 23, 2022
Today we're Creating a Slimline Card with Stampin'Up! Botanical Layers Stamp Set. Our creator today is Debbie Crivello. This is our last Dream Team creations for this season. Debbie's design on Tuesday was just beautiful using this same stamp set---if you missed it check it out here...https://www.sandilovesstamping.com/2022/06/creating-with-new-stampinup-in-colors-botanical-layers.html
One of the current new styles of card is the slimline card...Stampin'Up! now has slimline envelopes making them easy to send (157981).
Here's Debbie's creation..
... a bit closer look...
Inside is just as pretty...
Using one of the plant stamps Debbie has created a lovely side border graduating in color depth from light to dark --Petal Pink, Flirty Flamingo, Sweet Sorbet, Real Red. This causes the eye to flow from top to bottom. She has used the Amazing Thanks dies to create the verse & by using the underlay die in white the Sweet Sorbet "thanks" nearly leaps off the card--bright and beautiful.
She used the Splatters embossing folder (Stripes & Splatters embossing folders) to add that texture to this relaxed card & then added two sets of In Color Matte Dots to add some pizzazz to the upper right and lower left corners.
Before we go on we want to thank Debbie for her hard work and awesome designs that she's been sharing with us for the last few months! It's been great fun to work with her & we've enjoyed her creations.
