Before this month is done I want to make sure I do this month’s #SimpleStamping challenge! This month we’re making a #SimpleStamping just because card. A card to say ‘hello’. And this month we can use something extra. This month we can use a punch on top of the usual stamps, ink and paper.
This time I’m using some retiring products and colours for my card. Two of my favourite colours are retiring; Rich Razzleberry and Pear Pizzazz. I’m especially sad about Pear Pizzazz. That’s been my go-to colour for leaves and foliage. So I had to use it one more time with the Happiness Abounds stamp set (which is also retiring).
Rich Razzleberry is my card base. And Pear Pizzazz is my card mat. Then in the background I stamped a mix of Pear Pizzazz leaves and Rich Razzleberry flowers. I also added a splash of Boho Blue, one of the new In Colours from the upcoming Annual catalogue. Then along the centre strip of Rich Razzleberry cardstock I did some tone on tome stamping with the large flower.
To make this a simple card to say hello, I stamped “friend” in Pear Pizzazz ink. Then I punched it out with the scalloped oval from the Double Oval punch. And to add at least a little something to the card, I popped up my word with some Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I enjoy making cards for all occasions, so to do some #SimpleStamping just because was pretty fun!
Check out the card I made for last month’s #SimpleStamping challenge here. It also features the Happiness Abounds stamp set.
And there’s only one more week to get any of the retiring products. Don’t miss out! See what’s still available before it’s gone for good in my online shop here.
