Good Morning Stampers!!!! I'm back with a new card. I really love how this card turned out. The stamp set was actually given to me by a friend who had purchased two of them. Guess she loved them enough to want two. Kidding. I am really grateful.
I must say I was a little intimidated by the set. Looked like there was coloring, cutting and putting scenes together. I wasn't certain this was going to work for me. I am more of a simple, quick card girl. I researched on Pinterest for examples and they intimidated me even more until I decided to combine several styles and this is what I came up with.
The cardstock on the card and top layer are Soft Suede. Not a color I use a lot, but I think I will now . I found it to be very rich looking. The colored layer is Night of Navy. I embossed the swing in white. When you emboss and then color, it does a couple of things. First the image stands out and secondly, it is much more easy to color. I used Night of Navy to color the seat cushion as well. I colored the cat with my blends and fussy cut him out and popped him up on the swing. He is so cute sitting there. The pot of flowers was also colored with blends. They are a little dark, but the whole card has a older look to it. I LOVE the sentiment. I am a swing kind of girl.
Hope you will attempt the card or something like it. If you don't own the set, I do suggest it as a wonderful addition to your stamps. Please click on the Shop button on the right side to order from me.
Don't forget. I am live on Facebook on Saturday Mornings at 10 am. I make a couple of projects and have a few laughs. Please join me.
See you next week.
