Stamps: Annotations (CTMH) Paper: Outdoor Denim & Sweet Leaf TCS & White Daisy, Breeze & Pink Carnation CS (CTMH) Ink: Sweet Leaf & Outdoor Denim (CTMH) Accents: Mat Pack & White Daisy Bigger Brads & Sanding Block (CTMH)
For this card I used the October SOTM called Annotations. I love the tag shapes and my favorite part about this stamp is the font of the sentiments...LOVE IT!!! :D I used Breeze for my base and added a 3" x 4 1/4 " in piece of Outdoor Denim TCS that I scored and distressed a bit with my sanding block. I then cut a 1/4" strip of Pink Carnation CS that I pierced with my mat pack and taped it over my Outdoor Denim TCS. Next I stamped the tag in Sweet Leaf ink onto some Sweet Leaf TCS, cut out the center and added a piece of WhiteDaisy CS to the back and stamped my sentiment in Outdoor Denim ink. To finish the card I added two White Daisy Bigger brads to the top left hand corner. Although I like it, I still feel like it's missing something, what do you think?!?!? Should I keep as is, or should I change it?!?!
My next card uses the Sept. SOTM called Treasure Life. I am really lovin this stamp set and I chose to do a similar card like my card from yesterday using the same LO but used the colors Black, Watermelon & White Daisy and I really like it!!! :D My base is Black TCS and I added a 2" in strip of Watermelon CS that I ran through my CB using the Swiss Dots folder. I don't know what I would ever do without my CB...I LOVE IT!!! :D I then stamped my image in Watermelon ink onto White Daisy CS and layered it onto a piece of Black TCS. Next I added two silver brads to the flower centers and I stamped "thank you" from the Annotations stamp set in Black ink. Next I went to piercing around the image, added some black polka dot ribbon and pop dotted it onto my base. Pretty simple, eh?!?! :D
