Today I have been playing along with the Global Design Project (GDP#173) colour challenge which this week features Soft Sea Foam, So Saffron and Petal Pink, all from the Subtles collection of colours. I used the gorgeous Vibrant Vases stamp set to make my card.
Making the card
I began with a piece of Whisper White cardstock 3 ¾” by 3”. I inked up the solid vase with So Saffron ink, stamped off once onto my Grid Paper then stamped onto the Whisper White cardstock. I stamped the detailed vase image over the top in full strength So Saffron ink. I love the added dimension you get when you stamp off the solid image.

I inked up the outline image of the roses in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and stamped it on top of the vase image. The roses were then coloured in with the Petal Pink and the leaves added in Soft Sea Foam.

I die cut the stamped vase image using my Big Shot and the lovely new Stitched Rectangles dies. I chose my sentiment from the vibrant vases stamp set, masked off the word ‘always’ and then inked up the ‘you are loved’ in So Saffron ink and stamped the image at the top of the stitched rectangle. The whole stamped piece was then added to a panel of Petal Pink cardstock measuring 3⅝” by 2¾” using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Taking the small bokeh dot image from the Beauty Abounds stamp set I stamped the dots in a wavy line across the front of a Thick Whisper White card base in all 3 colours. The stamped panel was added to the card front on Stampin Dimensionals and a scattering of Iridescent Sequins added to give a little sparkle.
I have to say that these are not colours I would normally have chosen but I really love this card. I hope you like it.
