I have a sweet Hello card using the Ranunculus Romance stamp set for my project today. And it includes a Direct To Rubber flower as the star.
Stamp Set
The Ranunculus Romance stamp set is a fun one with beautiful focal stamps as well as background stamps. And it is carrying over to the next Annual Catalog from the Mini! All of the stamps used are from the stamp set. The background stamping on the card base is done Tone on Tone with Soft Succulent Ink.
For the flower I used the Direct To Rubber Technique by coloring onto the red rubber with the Soft Succulent and Polished Pink Stampin’ Write Markers. This card is using the 2021-2023 In Colors for paper and inks. To do the Direct To Rubber technique you need the Stampin’ Write Markers. So with there only being five markers in an In Color set, it is a great way to collect these and less expensive than the Color Families.
Paper
The card base is the soft and elegant Soft Succulent cardstock. As mentioned above, the colors are all from the In Colors. The two paper layers are from the 2021-2023 In Color 6×6 paper stack. These two pieces are the same design front and back. So you are seeing both patterns between the two colors. The green DSP is actually Evening Evergreen. I believe the darker lines are Evening Evergreen and the lighter area is closer to the Soft Succulent. For some added depth, I angled the two pieces of DSP. This allows you to see more of the colors and designs.
Extras
Making the focal point really stand out is not always easy. One of the products I love to use for this is a fun die shape. This one is from the Scalloped Contours Dies. The different scalloped layers in graduating sizes is a great one to have in your stash.
The cute little Hello tag is from the Ranunculus Dies. This is the matching dies to the stamp set and is available as a bundle. The tag is tied on using the wonderful Linen Thread. It is perfect for little tags or adding a masculine touch to a card. However I think it works great with flowers by thinking of it as garden twine. To finish off the card I scattered a few Pearls Basic Jewels around for some bling.
