Colour Combo Blog Hop - January 2021

1 piece of bumblebee card stock 4" x 5 3/4"

1 piece melon mambo card stock 3 1/2" x 5 1/4"

1 piece of pool party designer series paper 3" x 4 3/4"

Scraps of whisper white for stamping

Art Gallery stamp set

Floral Gallery dies

Stampin Cut and Emboss machine

Bumblebee ink

Melon Mambo ink

White bakers twine

Basic jewels

Trimmer

Simply Scored

Bone folder

Multipurpose adhesive

Dimensionals

Mini glue dots

Instructions

Score the thick whisper white card stock on the long side at 4 1/8", fold and burnish to make a card base.

Adhere the three mat layers to the card front leaving an equal border all around the edges on all three.

Stamp the floral image on the scrap of whisper white in bumblebee ink and then stamp the small accent stamp over the top using melon mambo (it's really easy to line them up and makes the flower look like it has two colour petals). Stamp the sentiment in melon mambo and then die cut both the sentiment and the flower. I have also stamped an additional sentiment on the inside as well as another floral image.

Add the floral image to the centre of the pool party panel on dimensionals and then add the sentiment below it, also on dimensionals.

Tie a small bow with the bakers twine and add beneath the sentiment with a glue dot. Add a few basic jewels for a bit of bling.

I hope that you like my card and will give it a try.

Please hop over to see what my colleagues have made, there is sure to be lots of inspiration there to give you ideas.
