Before I get to today’s card, I want to remind you about Stampin’ Up!’s FREE SHIPPING that is for Tomorrow Only. Any order totally $50.00 in product earns Free Shipping! Woohoo!!!
For today’s card I have used the Sweet As A Peach Bundle. This is such an adorable stamp set. And the Designer Series Paper is beautiful, as always. Living in Georgia, this stamp set is a must!!
Colors
I love everything about this card, even if I did design it. LOL!!! More specifically, I love the colors. The You’re A Peach Designer Series Paper has awesome shading of Pale Papaya and Calypso Coral for the peaches and flowers. To me the paper is definitely the star of the show.
I chose the Calypso Coral and Pear Pizzaz cardstock colors from the DSP. The stamping is also done using those colors in the flowers and the branch. For the peach, I stamped it using Pale Papaya Ink and then sponged some Calypso Coral around the edge and top for the same look as the paper.
I die cut the flowers using the matching Peach Dies from the Bundle. The flowers stamp and cut three at a time. I stamped and cut twice for extra flowers.
Layout and Finishing Touches
Because the DSP is so pretty, I pushed the focal layer over to the right a bit. I wanted to focus on it as well as show off the two peaches that are on the left side of the DSP. After doing that placement, I was happy for the extra flowers. One of the extra ones is placed on the bottom right of the focal layer. The second one is hanging off the edge on the upper left. I like to have a little piece coming over the edge for added dimensions.
The finishing touch is to add the center to the flowers. Even though I did not add a dot to each flower, I think the three I used were a good touch. These black dots are the Matte Black Dots. They are a bit bolder than the black centers in the DSP flowers, but I love the look.
