I am very much enjoying breaking out the new stamps from the Mini and Sale-A-Bration Catalogs. Today’s project is created using the Crane of Fortune, and a bit of imagination.
Stamps
The star of this card is the beautiful Crane, and maybe the flowers. They both have awesome detail that I love from the Stampin’ Up! design team. The flowers are stamped first and then partially masked to get the greenery added around it. To give just a bit more detail for the crane, he is stamped and die cut using the matching dies. He is then adhered flat but it is enough of a raise that you can tell.
To finish the card the All Day Your Way was chosen. This stamp is included in the Happy & Heartfelt stamp set. The set is all sentiments and are made with this fun font. That was a must have for me!
Paper , etc.
The card base is Just Jade with a layer of Smoky Slate. Cranes tend to be either gray or white, so he is stamped with Smoky Slate. Just Jade was used for the greenery and Petal Pink for the pretty flowers. The sentiment is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and punched using the Label Me Fancy Punch.
For a bit of a change, I layered some of the Cotton Ribbon Combo ribbon behind the sentiment layer. There are several of the 2021-2023 In Color Jewels spread around also. The ones in the greenery are very difficult to see in the photo. It appears they blend very well.
Sale-A-Bration is the Best Time of Year!!
