This week I’m sharing some #SimpleStamping with Flowers of Beauty; one of the new stamp sets in the Annual Catalogue. I thought it’d be a great set for the theme of this month’s #SimpleStamping challenge from Stampin’ Up!… love or sympathy. Sadly I actually need a sympathy card so that’s the theme I picked. The other piece to this month’s challenge is that we can only use stamps, ink, paper and an embellishment. So a little something extra this time!
I quickly thought of using the 2023-2025 In Colour Opaque Sparkle dots for my embellishment. So that helped with my colour combination; Boho Blue and Wild Wheat. I’m using Wild Wheat for my card case and Boho Blue for my card mat. Then on my card mat I did some tone on tone stamping with one of the flowers from the Flowers of Beauty stamp set. I also stamped my sentiment with Boho Blue ink. It comes from the Something Fancy stamp set.
Next I made a smaller card front than usual and I framed it with some more Wild Wheat cardstock. This way you can see the Boho Blue flowers on the card mat. On the smaller card front I stamped some of the taller foliage using both Wild Wheat and Boho Blue ink. I popped this up with a few Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then to finish it off I added a few Wild Wheat dots.
When you do #SimpleStamping with Flowers of Beauty, or other stamp sets with great images, your cards can turn out just as pretty as those with lots of layers and die cuts, etc.
