DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge #292: Tropical Chic
August 08, 2018
It's time for another DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge. This week we're having a "Home Sweet Home" challenge.
For this week's challenge, I knew immediately what Stampin' Up! products I would use, the Tropical Escape Suite.
From the first time I looked at the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog - I completely fell in love with this suite. Two reasons, 1) I adore the color combination used in the Tropical Escape Designer Series Paper and 2) The window leaf shape from the Tropical Thinlits Dies is to die for! And I got to incorporate them both today!
How'd She DO That tips for Tropical Chic card:
- Stamps: Tropical Chic
- Paper:
- Basic Black (11" x 4-1/4" card base)
- Blushing Bride(4" x 5-1/4")
- Granny Apple Green (scrap for leaves die cut)
- Whisper White (3-3/4" x 3-3/4" behind window, 2-3/4" x 1" greeting, scrap for flower & leaf.

- Tip:
- After die cutting window shape in Blushing Bride panel, adhere 3-3/4" white square to back side, keeping the adhesive to the edges of the square.
- Die cut Granny Apple Green "nested" leaves together at the same time. Adhere with glue dots.
- Fold 3-1/2" of ribbon in half, wrap black twine around it and finish in a bow. Adhere with a glue dot.
