I used the Stampin’ Up! Bella & Friends stamp set to create my card to share today.
My card design was inspired by Saturday Sketch #418.
I started by adhering three strips of Smoky Slate card stock to a panel from the A Little Foxy DSP Stack with SNAIL. I trimmed the strips so that they were even with the DSP panel, then adhered the DSP to a panel of Smoky Slate card stock with SNAIL and to a Pool Party card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I cut a strip of Smoky Slate card stock with the border die from the Flourish Thinlits die set. I snipped off the final three “flowers”, then adhered the die cut to the card front with SNAIL under the right side (hidden by the focal panel).
I stamped the image and sentiment from the Bella & Friends stamp set in Basic Black Archival Ink on a panel of Watercolor Paper. I used an Aqua Painter along with Pool Party, Smoky Slate, Calypso Coral and So Saffron inks to watercolor the panel.
I let the watercolor panel dry completely, then punched the corners with the Project Life Corner Punch. I adhered the watercolor panel to a panel of Pool Party card stock (also punched with the Project Life Corner Punch) with Fast Fuse Adhesive. I adhered the watercolor panel to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and added a single Rhinestone Basic Jewel next to the sentiment to finish it.
I adhered a strip of the A Little Foxy DSP to a Whisper White panel inside the card.
