Reverse Spotlighting with new stamps!
I made this card for today’s tutorial over on Splitcoaststampers.
The card base is a 5 1/4″ x 10 1/2″ textured piece of Groovy Guava cardstock folded in half.
Next is a 4 1/4″ square of black cardstock.
For this technique I stamped my 4″ square of So Saffron cardstock with Flowers from the set A Beautiful Thing out of the Spring Summer Preview Brochure.
First I stamped the solid flowers in So Saffron, then I stamped the matching outline flowers in Black Stazon ink. The cardstock still looked a little bare, so I stamped the circle stamp as well as one of the small circles randomly over the cardstock.
Next I used my 1 1/4″ circle punch and punched out three holes. I punched them so with each circle part of a big flower was gone.
Then I stamped the same flower three times with Groovy Guava and Black Stazon on Shimmery White cardstock and cut them out. Those cutouts were lined up with the flowers on the Saffron cardstock and taped underneath.
I cut a 3 3/4″ piece of Bali Breeze Designer paper and taped it under the Saffron cardstock.
A little ribbon, some brads and the saying from that set finish off this card.
Ok, I have been waiting to even mount this set for the past week…my Christmas projects have taken over my life! This is a FABULOUS tutorial and I am going to CASE this baby today! You did an amazing job as usual! I hope your December is going wonderful!
