Tulip Anniversary

It's time for a Tulip Anniversary...or a tulip anniversary card, anyway.  Today is my sister and brother-in-law's wedding anniversary.  And at our Card Club last week, Tani brought this beautiful card.  I thought it was perfect for my sisty:


Tranquil Tulips is a gorgeous stamp set, featuring tulips with a watercolored look.  And the lovely results are so easy to obtain; this is a two-step stamp, but you only need one color of ink (for the flowers; you'll need something else for the stems/leaves).  When you stamp one on top of the other, the image is sheer perfection!

See?  Gorgeous!

We started with a piece of Whisper White cardstock, and stamped our stems, leaves and flowers.  Then using both the Stitched Shapes square (the largest one) and one of the Layering  Squares framelits (one that fits inside the Stitched Shapes die) we cut out the squares, resulting in a frame and a center square.

We then nestled the "frame" back in the hole that was created (no glue yet).  The center square was adhered flat and we then popped up the frame with Foam Adhesive Strips.  Such a striking feature!

Our card base was Whisper White Thick cardstock, and there's a layer of Berry Burst.  My sentiment, from Beautiful Bouquet was stamped in Berry Burst and cut with one of the Stitched Shapes ovals, then mounted on two off-set Berry Burst ovals.

Isn't that a pretty card?  Perfect for an anniversary!

Tranquil Tulips is a Host set, available only to hosts or those whose sales reach $150.  Why not hold a catalog party and earn your set?  Contact me for details on easy ways to gather orders, and get your Tranquil Tulips today!
