Field Flowers

May Stamp Club Card

This card idea was taken from the front cover of the 2011-12 Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalogue.  Below is a side view of the card.  As you can see there is a little flap to put a gift card or seed packet inside.  We tried a gum package but it was a little too thick.

Paper:  Soft Suede 12 x 12, Tangerine Tango, Old Olive DSP, Very Vanilla

Ink:  Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Calypso Coral, Tangerine Tango, Old Olive

A few instructions....

Spritz Old Olive DSP with water and crumple.  Carefully open up and let dry. 

Stamp "thanks" or sentiment of your choice on the  twill with Early Espresso ink.  Carefully fray edges of twill.

To create flower heads follow the two step stamping technique:   Use Calypso Coral ink with the more solid flower head from the Field Flowers set.  Stamp on scrap paper once before stamping on the Very Vanilla card stock.  Then stamp over this image with the more outlined flower head in Tangerine Tango ink.  Add the flower center using Early Espresso ink.
