Thoughts of You - Hand - Stamped Sentiments # 277

For the sketch challenge with Hand Stamped Sentiments  a few more sneak peaks of the new catalogue products will be revealed.  I use both the SAB and the Occasions catalogue products.


  • The base is Pool Party cardstock, layered with striped gold fancy foil designer vellum
  • The stamp set used is "What I Love" a SAB stamp.  The flower is made using 3 step stamping - using 3 colours of pink.

Colour 1:  Soft sky
Colour2:  Pool Party
Colour 3:  Pacific Point

Each flower was cut out and added to a 2 1/4 by 2 1/4" Piece of Whisper White cardstock - the second flower slightly overlapping the first flower and attached using dimensionals.  The leaves were stamped using Old Olive ink, and I used a blender pen to fill the leaves in a bit. "It's My Party" enamel dots were added to each corner.
I love glitter, so it was added to each of the petals using the Stella wink glitter brush (clear)

The image panel was matted with Pool Party cardstock and attached to the card front using dimensionals.

A piece of 3/8" piece of Pool Party glitter ribbon was adhered to a 3/4" piece of Pool Party cardstock  which was matted with Whisper White cardstock.  Then some pool party Baker's twine was criss crossed across this strip and a bow glued to the center.  This strip was adhered to the lower part of the card front.

The sentiment is from "A Dozen Thoughts" (retired)
