FTL92 - Hello, Friend

Hi, everyone! Sorry for the late post today, it's been a busy day here at the Pulvirenti homestead. Before I get to today's card, I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you for all the messages and emails I've received regarding the Gallery Idol competition. You guys are the SWEETEST! :) I didn't make it to the next round, womp womp wommmmp, BUT I had an awesome time nonetheless! :)

Okay, back to the card... I created this card using the Clean & Simple Stamping Fall-to Layout #92 sketch. I'm a little behind as we're up to sketch #94 this week, so I'm playing catch-up! :)

Instructions:
  • Create 4 1/4" square gray card base.
  • Stamp background pattern onto white CS, then layer onto turquoise CS. Adhere to card front.
  • Use die to create border strip, then adhere to card front.
  • Stamp flower and sentiment onto white CS, then use die to punch out shape. Punch out larger shape using gray CS. Adhere together then attach to card base.

Supplies:
Stamps - Dots & Flowers, Color Me Flowers & Sentiment by Hero Arts
Paper - Basic Gray, Hawaiian Shores, Stamper's Select White
Ink - Turquoise Gem VersaMagic, Stazon Black
Miscellaneous - Nestabilities Labels 9, Eyelet Lace Border Die, Black Rhinestones
