Simple Support And Inspiration

August 8, 2019 2 Comments

One of the things I love about being an Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator in Canada is the support I receive from our Manager, Dale Hampshire. A few months ago I received a lovely card with an encouraging message inside and it’s been on display in my studio ever since. It’s a beautiful card designed by Tamara Bertram and today I used it as the inspiration for this project.

SIMPLE IMAGE

For my simple card I needed a simple image, but more specifically an outline drawing. My immediate thought was Beautiful You, and I chose the lady with the umbrella.

On a piece of Whisper White Card I stamped the lady using Sahara Sand ink. Then I stamped the “Wishing you brighter days to come” sentiment beside the image.

On another layer of Whisper White Card I stamped the lady in the bottom left corner, then did the same on the front of a Whisper White Medium Envelope.

There was no real colouring needed, I just used a Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush to add a shimmer to the dress and umbrella on each image.

SIMPLE ASSEMBLY

With the stamping all done, I was now ready to assemble my card.

First I mounted the sentiment piece to a layer of Sahara Sand Card using Multipurpose Liquid Glue (Tombow). Then with Stampin’ Dimensionals I fixed the layers to a Thick Whisper White Card base.

Next I used liquid glue to fix the Whisper White layer with just the image inside the card base.

Finally on the front of the card I added a line of 3 small Pearl Basic Jewels and I was finished.

I really like how this card turned out, it really is a simple design but very striking, don’t you think?

Here’s the original card that inspired my project.

    Love both cards. Simple yet elegant and really find the minimal colour palette most attractive! (especially with the WOS added!
    Wow!) TFS Tracy!
