Dear Doily for the Just Add Ink #442 challenge

I have made such a sweet card today for the Just Add Ink #442 challenge. This challenge this week is a really quirky sketch which I thought would work perfectly with the Dear Doily stamp set and the co-ordinating Doily Builder dies.

Making the card

I began by stamping the sentiment from the Dear Doily stamp set in Shaded Spruce ink onto a scarp panel of Whisper White. I used one of the doily dies from the Doily Builder Stamp set, I didn’t realise that the die I chose would cut out the circle die and the inside of the circle separately……… When I placed the white circle die cut and the pierced rim onto the panel of Rich Razzelberry cardstock, measuring 5⅜” by 3⅝” it didn’t look right. After a bit of trial and error I settled for die cutting the same piece from Mint Macaron cardstock and adding back the stamped Whisper White centre.

I stamped the leafy frond from the Wonderful Romance stamp set in Rich Razzelberry ink onto the Rich Razzelberry panel and mounted the stamped doily piece in the centre on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Using the Wonderful Floral dies and my Big Shot I cut some leaves from scrap Petal Pink cardstock and from Vellum cardstock and tucked them in under the doily using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to secure them. I love the embossed texture on these leaves.

The whole Rich Razzelberry panel was layered onto a Whisper White piece measuring 5 ½” by 3 ¾” with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. This panel was then added to a Petal Pink card base. A trio of Share What You Love Artisan Pearls finished off the card front.

I stamped the leafy frond in Rich Razzelberry ink onto a piece of Whisper White cardstock 5⅜” by 3⅝” and added it to the inside of the card. The same image was stamped on a Whisper White envelope.

I am really happy with how this card turned out and I really love the swirly font of this sentiment.

  2. Your Mint doily layer was obviously meant to be, Mo 🙂 I love your colour combination – the deep Razzleberry contrasts beautifully with the soft pink and mint and the delicate details on your doily and leaves are gorgeous! Thanks for sharing with us at Just Add Ink this week.
