Probably because it makes me think of warmer weather (yep, it was snowing again this weekend!), and because I used several new Summer Mini Catalog goodies: Island Oasis Designer Series Paper, the Sentimental Journey stamp set, and the Stampin' Up! Square Lattice Textured Impressions Embossing Folder!
MOJO137 Island Oasis Challenge Card
Here's how I made my card this morning:- Layer a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Island Oasis Designer Series Paper leaf print onto a 4-1/8" x 5-3/8" Chocolate Chip Card Stock layer.
- Run a 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" piece of Kraft Card Stock through your Big Shot Die-Cut Machine (you DO know about my fantabulous Big Shot Offer, don't you?) and your new Stampin' Up! Square Lattice Embossing Folder. Looks like a grass mat, doesn't it? Cut a 2-3/4" x 3" rectangle from it and punch a Scallop Oval shape from the remainder. Sponge both pieces' edges and top surface light with Chocolate Chip Classic Ink.
- Layer the rectangle on a 2-7/8" x 3-1/8" piece of Chocolate Chip Card Stock and adhere to the leaf print layer.
- Punch four 1-1/4" Squares from the Island Oasis DSP tropical flower print, sponge the edges in Chocolate Chip Classic Ink, then layer onto a 1-3/8" x 5-1/8" strip of Chocolate Chip Card Stock. Tie a length of Natural Hemp Twine around the top and knot on the front. Layer over the rest with Stampin' Dimensionals.
- Stamp the "Journey" greeting from the new Sentimental Journey stamp set in Chocolate Chip Classic Ink over Certainly Celery Card Stock, punch out with the Large Oval Punch, then ink edges with Chocolate Chip Classic Ink. Layer onto the Scallop Oval piece and adhere to the card front layers with Stampin' Dimensionals.
- Before attaching the card front layers to the So Saffron card base, attach three 5/16" Chocolate Chip Jumbo Brads to the lower right using your Paper-Piercing Tool and Mat Pack.
- Be sure to stamp the back with your Stampin' Up! personalized stamp and sign your name, then you're done!
