Oh yes, my friends, So Saffron and Soft Suede are gorgeous together!! I wanted a change of pace from the Christmas card mania I have been living in and needed a “thinking of you” card. Actually, my mom was here visiting and she asked to take some cards home. Hmmm…an excuse to stamp with my mom…awesome!! She did attend my Christmas card class too but this stamping was just for her. I pulled up the inspiration challenge from Our Creative Corner this week and saw this lovely picture:
Beautiful, isn’t it? I also used the Mojo Monday Sketch 163. I haven’t done one of those in forever and this is a great one! My new Deck the Halls paper was calling out to be used for a non-Christmas card and my Elements of Style set seemed perfect for the inspiration picture. Take a look:
I stamped the “toile” image on Very Vanilla and did some light coloring with Saffron and Suede ink. I sponged the DSP and the stamped pieces with Soft Suede and pulled the words from my Silhouette Sentiments Hostess set. The Victoria Crochet Trim was a natural fit for this look and I used an Antique Brad to cinch the bow together. This card is perfect for my mom!
Tomorrow I will post another card that we stamped. Thanks for joining me today. Have a great day!
