DOstamperSTARS Challenge #187: Falling Flowers 4th of July!
June 29, 2016
It's time for another DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge. This week we're having a "Sketch Pad" challenge.
Today's card came together quick, as I knew I'd be using a clever idea shared by one of my DOstamperSTARS, Linda Kaufman (who cased it from Pinterest). She used the flourish image from Falling Flowers to create a 4th of July card. I totally got excited about it and knew I needed to give it try and today's sketch seemed perfect for it! Thanks Linda!
For the sketch, I decided to turn it on it's end. Though - I may have to go back and do another card with this sketch, back in the landscape view, as I think it's a cool sketch.
Falling Flowers 4th of July card:
- Stamp flourish image from Falling Flowers with Dapper Denim ink on 4" x 2-5/8" piece of Whisper White
- Adhere to 3" square of 2016-2018 In Color Designer Series Paper Stack, then adhere to folded 11" x 4-1/4" piece of Real Red cardstock.
- Punch out 3 Denim Dapper stars with Medium Star punch. Die cut 3 Real Red stars with smallest die from Stars Framelits. Adhere together, then adhere to card with Stampin' Dimensionals.
- Stamp banner (Real Red ink) & greeting (Dapper Denim ink) from Thoughtful Banners, punch with Duet Banner Punch (Bundle & Save!). Adhere to card with Stampin' Dimensionals
- Attach Rhinestone Jewels to stars and enjoy!
I'm sure there are a lot of other stamp sets that have images that could be used in outside-the-box ways. Have you discovered any? Makes me want to look over my stamps from a whole new point of view!
