Baja Birthday
I had a little bit time to play yesterday. Here is a card I made for the Way to Use it, the Limited Supply, the Inspiration as well as the Featured Stamper challenge.
The card base is a 4 1/4″ x 8 1/2″ piece of Chocolate Chip cardstock folded in half, followed by a 4″ square of Whisper White cardstock.
A 3″ square of Green Tea Designer Paper was mounted on a 1/4″ bigger piece of Baja Breeze cardstock and paper pierced. White Taffeta Ribbon was tied around it.
The Upsy Daisy image was stamped in Chocolate Chip ink on a 2 5/8″ square of Whisper White cardstock. It was layered on a 1/4″ bigger piece of Old Olive cardstock and paper pierced on the white, nonstamped edges.
The sentiment was stamped in Baja Breeze ink on Whisper White cardstock, punched out with the large oval punch, layered on Chocolate chip cardstock and cut out again by hand.
Last I added two 1/4″ circles out of Baja Breeze cardstock, topped with brown brads (SU needs to start carrying those and white brads. I NEED them!).
Have a wonderful Monday! Hugs and smiles
Beate, deine Karte ist umwerfend. Wahnsinn…Ich habe sie bereits heute morgen bei SCS gesehen…Die Farben sind genial. Wünsche dir eine schöne Woche… TFS
I agree - we NEED brown brads! The ones from the retired Hodgepodge Hardware looked super good with dark colours. As for white, I make my own with white embossing powder, but it’d be so much simpler to just have white brads. Let’s all keep bugging them until they cave!
Your card is very lovely, BTW

THis is just GORGEOUS, Beate! Can you believe I haven’t gotten this stamp set yet? Especially after all of the fabulous things YOU’VE created with it! Have a great day!
Gorgeous girl - I love this!!! *STAMPIN HUGS* Alex
I love all the white space–very crisp and fresh. I must order some of that taffeta ribbon next month!
A beautiful, elegant card!
4 challenges in one! Talk about time management! LOL! Beautiful card, as per usual. The fact that SU! doesn’t have brown brads is kind of a head scratcher to me. Chcolate Chip is one of the most popular colors, right? Sooooo…
This is marvelous Beate! Love this great sketch, it always works so well! My SU! order should be in this week! Whoo hoo! Ordered this set! Hugs, Deb
Wow, this was a challenge collection…. beautiful color combo, would have never put them together, but they look really great!!
I love the baja breeze with the chocolate chip…gorgeous
This is GORGEOUS Beate!!! My set is finally on it’s way after being on backorder…yah! Fantastic job combining all those challenges…wow~! Have a FABULOUS day!
Fabulous card! Really pretty :o)
BEAUTIFUL =)
I love these colors. The 1/4 inch circles under the brads really make them pop. So cool. -Molly B
There’s not much to say that hasn’t been said, so I’ll just duplicate (is it okay to CASE a comment - LOL?). I love the idea of putting the 1/4″ circle under the brad - fantastic!!! And how you managed to put together such a great card AND do 4 challenges at one time is amazing.
Fantastic multi-challenge card, Beate!! I love the colors/papers, piercing, and of course that beautiful set you’ve used!!
I say we bombard SU with requests for chocolate and white brads!!!
I LOVE this stamp set and I LOVE what you’ve been creating with it!
