Pictogram Punches - Hello

Hello!

I made time to take part in this weeks Global Design Project Challenge! Inbetween packing for our camping trip, eyelash tints and play dates I managed to make a quick card! I just love this week's colour challenge:


This is my contribution:


I find it very difficult to make a single layered card, but feel that soft colours works well for this.


The tiny hearts are from the Stamp a Bag stamp set  - They were heat embossed with Clear Stampin' Emboss powder and  Soft Sky ink.

My Product List:




Built for Free Using: My Stampin Blog




Hints & Things

  • For the little heat embossed hearts I first inked with Versamark ink and then Soft Sky ink before I heat set  it with Clear Stampin' Emboss powder. This helped to add some dimension.
  • I further added some dimension with Stampin' Dimensionals underneath the vase as well as with a Whisper White ribbon bow.
  • Shape the punched flowers with  the back end of a pen in the hollow of your palm (I use the back end of my paper-piercing tool).
For some photo's of our camping trip (if you are interested) fo to my Instagram account!

Speak to you soon!

  2. Hi Mel, just gorgeous great use of the colours for this design challenge. I love the tiny hearts you have used together with the emboss powder and soft sky ink very subtle but also striking. The punch flowers look great with the daffodil delight. What a fabulous job putting this together quickly in between packing for your camping trip, enjoy your trip.
