Hello Stampin’ Friends! Since the Stampin’ Up! retirement sale is in full swing I thought I would share some fun project ideas with those stamp sets that will be retiring! Today’s project showcases the Helping Me Grow stamp set and a fun way to use your watercolor pencils…without doing any watercoloring! 🙂
You can re-create this card using any pretty patterned papers that you have on hand, just coordinate the colors to match your patterned papers. I decided to use neutral colors. To make this card, start with a piece of Early Espresso cardstock for the base of your card. Cut a 3 x 4 inch piece of the Early Espresso Designer Series Paper (DSP) and adhere it to the top of the card front. This DSP is one of the patterns from the Neutrals pack. Cut a 5-1/4 x 4 inch piece of Crumb Cake cardstock. Stamp the flower image from the Helping Me Grow stamp set on the bottom of the cardstock using Early Espresso ink. Stamp a sentiment. Grab a white pencil…the Watercolor Pencils work fabulous for this! Color in the petals of the flower using the white pencil. Tear the top part of the Crumb Cake cardstock, on an angle, and sponge some Early Espresso ink around all of the edges. Adhere to the card front; it will overlap onto the DSP. For the finishing touch, embellish with a few pearls. That’s it! Easy peasy!
