Pretty Spider Plant from the Sitting Pretty stamp set

I have made such a sweet card today using the Sitting Pretty stamp set and the lovely spider plant image. I remember these plants so well from my student days………they were the only ones I never managed to kil! Unfortunately I have not been blest with green fingers so I had best stick to stamping my plants.

Making the Spider Plant card

I began by stamping the outline image in Momento Tuxedo Black ink onto a panel of Whisper White cardstock 4” by 2⅝”. I stamped the pot in Poppy Parade ink and the spider plant in Granny Apple Green ink, I love this colour combination. I stamped the sweet sentiment from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set in Granny Apple Green ink. I rounded the upper right corner with the Detailed Trio Punch and added the stamped panel to a layer of Poppy Parade card with a rounded upper right corner.

I ran a panel of Whisper White cardstock measuring 5⅜” by 3 ⅝” through my Big Shot with the Striped Scalloped Embossing Folder – I love this embossing folder. I added the embossed panel to a Thick Whisper White card base with Multipurpose adhesive then added the stamped panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I felt something was missing and after trying a couple of things I decided to add 2 small flags in Granny Apple Green and Poppy Parade cardstock to the upper left side of the raised panel.

I love the simplicity of this card. I hope you like it.
