This was one of the first sets in the new catalog that I had my eye on. I knew I could have a lot of fun with this set! And so far I have. I haven't used it much but each card I've made with it, I've had fun and I have liked the outcome!
The colors here are fun too. I used the new Costal Cabana and Bermuda Bay. I LOVE how the two colors just compliment themselves. It's such a warm and inviting color combo.
To stamp my image I first used the stem stamp and Pear Pizzazz. With the larger flower image, I stamped the Coastal Cabana color first. And since this is a two step stamp set I took the other flower image and stamped the Bermuda Bay color over the Coastal Cabana.
I layered the focal piece with Bermuda Bay. The strip textured piece is layered with Coastal Cabana. And the scalloped piece had both colors on it. The words on there were done on the computer. And that was it. It's a very quick and easy card to make. Plus it doesn't have any buttons or knots on it so the postage won't change! Ya gotta LOVE that!!! I tend to go for the clean and simple look on my cards. Oh and this card was not copied off anyone's blog! Shocker, I know!!! LOL
Thank you SO much for stopping by today,

Another pretty card, Wanda!
ReplyDeleteI have that stripped folder but have not put it to use much yet. I do not have that flower set, but I have the Secret Garden set which would work for this card. Thanks for sharing.
