Perfect Pomegranate for the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

 

Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing projects using the masking technique. I have used the Perfect Pomegranate stamp set to make my card.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the perfect pomegranate card, you will need:

Petal Pink card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Merry Merlot card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – ⅜” strip

 

I stamped a pomegranate in Merry Merlot ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White card. I stamped the same image onto a piece of Masking Paper and cut it out using sharp Scissors to create a mask. I placed the mask over the stamped image and stamped it again overlapping. The mask was then removed.

 

The leafy branch was stamped in Garden Green ink in the upper left corner and the upper right corner.

 

I inked up the flower stem with Garden Green ink and the flower with Petal Pink ink. Using a Dauber, I added Calypso Coral ink to the flower and stamped it down.

 

Pool Party ink was added to the background using a Blending Brush and I added some small dots to the background in the same Pool Party ink.

The stamped panel was glued to the Merry Merlot layer and then to the Petal Pink card front.

 

The sentiment, from the Art Gallery stamp set was stamped in Merry Merlot ink onto the strip of Basic White card, trimmed down and added it to the card.

 

Iridescent Rhinestones completed the card.

Please continue to hop around, sharing the inspiration provided by my stamping friends.
