Welcome to today’s DSP Episode #23 A Handmade Card using Stampin’ Blends
Hello everyone and welcome to another blog post. Today is DSP #23 a Handmade Card using Stampin’ Blends. Today’s project uses some of our peaceful poppies suite consumables namely our lovely designer series papers.
The Stampin’ Blend choice colours I chose today are Old Olive and Blackberry Bliss light and dark. The co-ordinating green for this suite is mossy meadow, but as I don’t have blends in that shade, I compromised with Old Olive which goes very well too.
In this suite are various lovely poppy elements and I decided to use the velum embossed elements. By using an alternative use of the elements by colouring them with my Stampin’ Blends too, I made the card even more co-ordinating.
The colouring of some basic pearl jewel embellishments with the blends also finished the card off nicely.
Blackberry bliss is the card base colour choice today, with a matt layer in mossy meadow.
The finishing touches of the co-ordinating sentiment’s stamp set really finishes this card off. My Mossy Meadow ink pad is needing re-inked so I’ve remembered to add one to my next order.
I made use of a little scrap piece that was left over from the DSP to add extra layers inside my card.
