Don’t let the Magic in the Night Designer Series Paper be only for Halloween. I have had a blast making birthday cards, sympathy, fall and more. I love the this card turned out. It is just striking to me. I love the color combination of the Basic Black with the Soft Seafoam and the grey tones. Then of course the use of the Stitched So Sweetly Die cuts! I am telling you I have almost worn our one set. If you get any die cut set in the catalog this set is a great one! Pair it with the Peaceful Moments stamp set and you will be able to make so many great cards! This is a true go to set! Perfect for so many occasions!
I added soft Seafoam Ink sponged on the die cut to add some color and compliment the background of the card. Note the vellum strip under the die cut. That too adds to the look of this fun card. The elegant faceted gems are also perfect on this card. I love the gems too, they are just simple and elegant.
Don’t forget the inside of the card and I sponged over the image to make it match the front of the card. It is always fun and easy to add DSP (designer series paper) to the envelope flap and trim around. It makes for an elegant card.
Cut a piece of the soft seafoam card stock 4 1/4″ x 11″ score at 5 1/2″
Cut basic black 4″x 5 1/4″ and the DSP black floral 3 3/4″ x 5″ mount the layers in order using Stampin Seal. Next cut a strip of vellum 3 3/4″ x 1″ and adhere to center of the card keeping the adhesive hidden under where you will mount the die cut.
Die cut the large die cut in Soft Seafoam card stock and Whisper White for the smaller die cut. Stamp you image in Memento Black and then sponge over it in Soft Seafoam ink. Pop these mounted die cuts over the adhered vellum using Stampin Dimensionals. Use your Take Your Pick Tool to add the Elegant Faceted Gems on the card.
Layer a Basic Black 4″ x 5 1/4″ to a Whisper White 3 3/4″ x 5″ and then stamp your greeting and sponge over the greeting again with the Soft Seafoam ink. Layer to inside of card base. Adhere a piece of the DSP to the envelope flap also.
