Delicate Dahlias In So Saffron

  Delicate Dahlias In So Saffron

I made todays card for the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge, click on the link to check out all the amazing cards! 

I used So Saffron Card Stock and Ink to create this card. 

I love the pop of the Calypso Coral Card Stock, the Basic Black Bakers Twine bow and the tiny little Basic Black Card Stock 
border behind the tag. Just that little shadow of the Basic Black C/S helps to make the tag "pop"!

I also added a small rectangle of "Be Dazzling Specialty 6 x 6 Paper" behind the Calypso Coral C/S sentiment. This gorgeous paper is FREE with a $60 order during Stampin' Up's!

Directions:

I started with a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of So Saffron Card Stock. Score it at 4 1/4". This is the card base.

Using So Saffron Ink and the Delicate Dahlia stamp, repeated stamp the flower all over the card base front. *Tip: This is a detailed stamp, you don't want to over ink it or you will lose lots of the finer details. 

Die cut one Basic White C/S and one Basic Black C/S label using the Tasteful Labels Dies.

Stamp some Dahlias using So Saffron Ink onto the Basic White C/S tag.

Cut the Basic Black C/S tag in half horizontally. Glue the two parts behind the Basic White tag so that a tiny little border shows. 

Attach this tag to the card front using Dimensionals.

Cut a small rectangle of Calypso Coral C/S and using Memento Black Ink, stamp a sentiment. Attach this to a rectangle strip of the "Be Dazzling 6 x 6 Specialty Paper". Attach this to the card front. 

Tie a triple bow using Basic Black Bakers Twine, attach to the right edge of the tag using a Glue Dot. 

Try making this layout in multiply colors of card stocks and inks. 

Thanks Freshly Made Sketches for this great layout!!

Happy Stamping and Creating!

Sending thoughts and prayers to all those affected by the wildfires.
