One of the newest stamp sets that I added to my craft stash is Layering Leaves. I had the chance to use it at our large team’s in-person playdate back in June and I loved it so much that I put it at the top of my wishlist.
For this card design, I’m pairing it with one of the designs from the Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper pack. This is one of just a couple designs that doesn’t have any purple in it. It does have a few different shades of green in it… Pretty Peacock, Lost Lagoon and Shaded Spruce. And for my card base and ink colour I went with Pretty Peacock. Then Lost Lagoon as my secondary ink colour.
On top of my piece of patterned paper, I layered a Pretty Peacock sentiment and some small Lost Lagoon flowers that I punched with the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch. I also added a few leaf branches that I punched with the Bough Punch. The outline of the leaves is Pretty Peacock and then I used Lost Lagoon to fill then in. Two step stamp sets like this make it really easy to make it look like you coloured your images! And I popped all of it up with some Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then to finish it off I added a couple Brushed Brass Butterflies.
I’ve made a few cards using the Layering Leaves stamp set. And it’s definitely become a fast favourite!
