More Shaded Summer Cards

 

I really love this Stamp set and the sentiments that go with it. I used 3/4 inch strips of You’re A Peach DSP for the background in the first card. I used the Stamparatus and my Stampin’ Write Markers to stamp the flower. I stamped and heat embossed the small leaf on to the Vellum

 The colours here include Melon Mambo, Polished Pink, Old Olive and Mossy Meadow. The Scalloped Contour Dies are from The Color and Contour Die Bundle.The Sentiment is from Art Gallery.

I used the same technique in the third card with Granny Apple Green, Shaded spruce, Highland Heather and Blackberry  Bliss ink pads. The Rectangles were die cut using The Stitched So Sweetly Dies. The background was embossed using The Pretty Flowers Embossing Folder from The Annual catalogue.

Stamping Technique with Shaded Summer Stamp Set.

I was inspired to try this technique by a Youtube Video that I watched by Alisa Tilsner who is a Stampin Up Demonstrator. It is really easy with The Stamparatus. You place the Card-stock in the left hand corner and ink up the stamp with The White Craft Ink. You then move the Card-stock 1/16 of an inch to the right and then stamp over the image with ink that tones with the background Card-stock. In the first card I used Melon Mambo. The hinge of the Stamparatus was on the left hand side.

The background Card-stock in the second card is Polished Pink. I used some Expressions Of Ink DSP for the background. I love our White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon. The sentiment is from the Shaded Summer Stamp Set.

The third card is in Just Jade with more of the White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon. The background DSP is from the Hostess Pack in The Annual catalogue. I added some Pearl Basic Jewels as an embellishment.
