Tropical Chic, fresh and simple

Today I am sharing a clean and simple card made using the Tropical Chic stamp set from the new Annual Catalogue.

Making the Tropical Chic card

I wanted to use shades of green for this card to keep it fresh and simple and started with a Soft Sea Foam card base. I really love this colour; it is a fantastic addition to our new colour palette.

I die cut 3 squares from Whisper White cardstock using the Stitched Shapes Dies. I stamped a different leaf from the Tropical Chic stamp set onto each of the die cut squares using Shaded Spruce ink, Soft Sea Foam ink or Granny Apple Green ink; this has become one of my go to colour combos this summer.

I cut a panel of Granny Apple Green cardstock 5⅞” by 2” and adhered the stamped squares onto it using Multipurpose Liquid Glue taking care to leave an even border around all 3 images. I added a 5⅞” strip of Silver Foil to the bottom of the panel using the same adhesive.

I stamped the sentiment from the same Tropical Chic stamp set in Granny Apple Green ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and punched it out using the Everyday label Punch. I trimmed a little from the right side of the sentiment and added it beneath the stamped panel using the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The whole panel was added to the card front on Stampin’ Dimensionals. I stamped the same 3 leaf images in the same 3 colours onto a panel of Whisper White 5⅜ by 3⅝” for the inside of the card and again on the front of the envelope.

This is such a clean and simple card, love it……
