For my card this week I have finally inked up the Shaded Summer stamp set which if you spend $180 this month you can earn the coordinating dies for free.
My starting point was a piece of DSP from the "B side"of the Hand Penned paper pack. I then stamped this with one of the images in Daffodil Delight. I've then added a piece of the beautiful Black Shimmer paper that I have die cut using one of the Basic Borders dies. I have then placed another piece of DSP on top of this also from a "B side"but this time Simply Elegant.
The centrepiece of the card though is the floral spray from the Shaded Summer stamp set and then die cut with the Saleabration die. I've coloured it using Daffodil Delight and Old Olive blends. Finally a cute bow using the Black and White Gingham and a few Matte Black dots. Oh and finally a cute little Bumblebee trinket perched on the flower.
The sentiment is also from the Shaded Summer stamp set and has been stamped and die cut using one of the Stitched So Sweetly dies.
Next in tonight's blog hop is the lovely Rachel Palmieri. I look forward to seeing what lovely creation they have to share with us this week.

The black elements add a very dramatic touch to your beautiful card, T. I particularly love that you've stamped on the DSP, and used that gorgeous gingham ribbon. Lots of lovely things going on, in your design; you've showcased this beautiful colour so nicely. x
ReplyDeleteFantastic way to bring these two SALE-a-bration products together, Di. I love your colour combination of black, white and this sunny yellow.
ReplyDeleteBlack and Yellow go so well together and really bring out the brightness. Lovely card Theresa.
ReplyDeleteLove your stamping on the DSP behind your floral image. That gingham ribbon is so beautiful and works perfectly on your card.
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty friendship card Theresa. The background stamping on the DSP looks great and I really like the varying textures used too.
ReplyDeleteThe tone on tone stamping in the background is a fabulous addition to the many elements on this card.
ReplyDeleteTheresa I love the different embellishments on your card and especially the black glimmer paper cut with the border dies. Beautiful card!
ReplyDeleteI love the flower image stamped on the DSP, adds such a nice dimension to this great card.
ReplyDeleteYour flower looks amazing! The bold black and yellow is fabulous, and the bumblebee is a wonderful finishing touch.
ReplyDeleteYour card is lovely Theresa. The black certainly makes a statement against the Daffodil Delight. I really like your over-stamped DSP in the background too. Really adds texture and depth to your card.
ReplyDeleteI love the combination of the gorgeous black shimmer paper and the bright Daffodil Delight Theresa.
