Hello there! Hope you're having a wonderful day! Today is the 2nd Thursday of the Month which means another One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop!
This month's theme is Pretty In Pink. If you've already been hopping, thanks so much for continuing. If you are starting with me, you'll want to be sure to hop all the way through to check out all of the amazing inspiration from Stampin' Up! Demonstrators around the globe!
I decided to finally get on board the Slimcard train! Here's what I came up with...
For the front panel of my card, I started out with some ink blending..
My ink blended panel was a 3 3/4" x 8 3/4" piece of Whisper White. Using a medium oval make up brush I started with Petal Pink at the bottom of the Panel, then blended Blushing Bridge, Flirty Flamingo, and onto Magenta Madness. After the ink blending, I spritzed the panel with water and then blotted it with a paper towel. I used my heat tool to make sure the panel was completely dry and then used my stamparatus to stamp in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink various Peony images from the Prized Peony Stamp Set. The stamparatus allowed me move the panel around and to make sure I got good stamped images all over the panel. Once I completed the stamped panel, I mounted it on a Basic Black Card Base that measured 8" x 9", and scored at 4" on the 8" side. I used scraps of Basic Black Cardstock to cut some leaves with one of the dies from the Forever Flourishing Dies. On another scrap of Basic Black Cardstock, the Just saying hello sentiment from the Tasteful Touches Stamp Set was stamped in Versamark Ink and then heat embossed in White. I used the Tasteful Labels dies to cut out the sentiment. I adhered with leaves with Multipurpose Adhesive onto the front of the panel and then added the sentiment label with Black Dimensionals over the leaves.
Here's a close up of the front panel...
I finished off the front by adding three In Color Enamel Dots in Magenta Madness and some splatters with my Clear Wink of Stella Pen.
Here's the inside of the card. I kept it simple...
I added some of the Peony images stamped off the edge of the inside panel in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink but did not add a stamped sentiment yet. I might add one later.. we shall see!
For my gift card holder, I started with a 5 x 4 1/4" piece of Basic Black cardstock, scored at 2 1/2" on the 5" side. I lined up the 5" side on my paper trimmer at the 2 1/2" score and cut it diagonally within 1/4" of the end. I then added some Multipurpose Adhesive to adhere the bottom and the small 1/4" section on the side. I used some of the 2020 - 2022 In Color DSP in Magenta Madness woodgrain 2 1/8" x 3 3/4" and cut it diagonally as I did on the Basic Black Gift Card Holder Base. Once cut, I used Memento Tuxedo Black Ink to stamp soem of the Peony Images onto the DSP and then adhered it with Multipurpose Adhesive. Using the Label Me Fancy punch I cut a small slit in the top of the gift card holder. I added some Magenta Madness 2020 - 2022 In Color 1/4" Ribbon through the slot and then tied one some of the Black and White Baker's Twine from the Payful Pets Trim Combo Pack into a bow over the Magenta Madness ribbon.
