Hi all! It's a release day at Simon Says Stamp. I have a couple of new products in this month's In My Heart release. Today I'm sharing a couple of cards created with my newest sentiment set, Stay True.
This first card is very simple. I started by heat embossing the sentiment with copper embossing powder on a panel of white cardstock.
Next, I placed the Big Basket Weave stencil over top, inking it with Nutmeg ink, darker towards the edges and very lightly in the center of the panel. I removed the stencil, and added a bit of additional inking around the edges.
I used some black watercolor to add a bit of splatter to my panel, and then a secondary sentiment, from the Stay True set, which was stamped with Versa Clair black ink on cardstock inked with that same Nutmeg color.
For my second card, I thought that it would be fun to pair this sentiment set which is bold and graphic, with a delicate/pretty element.
The sentiments were stamped with Versa Clair black ink in the top right corner of my panel. Then I pulled out the Jaunty Stem dies. I love the lines of these flowers, and selected three colored cardstock scraps from my scrap bin.
After die cutting, the flower pieces were adhered directly to my panel. I think they frame the sentiment perfectly, don't you?
Be sure to head over to Simon to check out the full In My Heart release, and I'll see you back here tomorrow for a fun hop.
