Avant Garden Plum Olive

A break from the Mediterranean Moments samples today to showcase one of the Sale-A-Bration products you can get FREE with a qualifying order (for each $90 you spend, you get a free item of your choice from the Sale-A-Bration Catalogue).

I have used the latest Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge as the perfect way to highlight the beautiful flower image in the Avant Garden stamp set.

Here is the sketch …

… and here is my card.

Tips:

Stamp the image three times with Memento Tuxedo Black on Whisper White cardstock.
Colour the image with Old Olive and Perfect Plum inks and an Aqua Painter.
Add some ‘splatters’ by stamping off Smoky Slate ink.
Use the Clear Wink of Stella for lots of sparkle.
Cut out the art panel with a scallop edged Layering Circles Framelits.
Cut out a larger circle using Silver Foil to layer the art panel.
Stamp a sentiment from Beautiful You on a scrap of Whisper White using Perfect Plum ink. Cut out and layer onto Perfect Plum.
Emboss the Old Olive card base with the Festive TIEF.
Layer with a strip of Perfect Plum and matching DSP.
Add art panel and sentiment layer.
And just to pretty up the inside …..
