Neat & Tangled August Release Week: Day Two

Hello everyone. It is day two of Neat & Tangled’s August Release Week and today I have a fun card for you featuring the NEW Grateful Heart Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies.

Today’s card is a black and white monochromatic card that is perfect for those more somber occasions or it also works for just creating a more sophisticated appearance.

I started with a piece of Simon Says Stamp Black Cardstock cut to 4 3/4 by 3 1/2. I loaded the largest flower from the set into my Original MISTI and arranged them to stamp toward the bottom left hand corner of my card panel. I prepped my cardstock with my EK Success Powder Tool and stamped the images with Nuvo Clear Mark Embossing Ink.  I then used Ranger White Embossing Powder to heat emboss the images. I used my Wagner Heat Tool to melt the embossing powder and gave it a few minutes to cool down.

 This panel was then popped up onto a Simon Says Stamp Fog card base cut and scored in an A2 sized portrait orientation.  I used black craft foam and tear tape adhesive to adhere them together.

I then stamped the smaller two images from the same Grateful Heart Stamp Set onto Neenah 110 lb. Solar White Cardstock with Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink. I used the coordinating dies to cut out these two smaller flowers.

The two smaller flowers where then popped up onto the front panel using Craft Perfect Foam Squares. I also added a few of the NEW Sophisticated Enamel Dots also in the Neat & Tangled August Release.  I love how the large glossy enamel dots stick out to just a little shine.
