Starting tomorrow you will be able to get this Softly Sophisticated Bundle for free with a $100 order! The bundle includes a stamp set and an embossing folder! I'm having a lot of fun experimenting with it this week.
Today's card uses the second two-step floral stamp in the stamp set. Sometimes I have trouble aligning two-step stamps, but the flowers in this set are quite easy to align, and if you miss by a little bit, they still look great. These are my kind of two-step stamps!
Since the bundle is called "Softly Sophisticated" I tried to adapt that theme for my card, so I chose the soft colors of Smoky Slate and Fresh Freesia and gave them a little bit of pop with Coastal Cabana.
If you missed the Faux Patina video, you can watch the replay below. I indicate in the video that Stampin' Up! does not sell a hard rubber brayer -- but HURRAY, they have brought it back! The brayer will be available Thursday, January 4 when the new 2024 Jan - April Mini Catalog goes live!
Doesn't it make a beautiful background? Soft, but sophisticated! The Softly Sophisticated stamp set also includes three sentiments with beautiful fonts. This is one of them. I embossed it with silver embossing powder to continue to the "sophistication".
I usually make my technique sheets larger than I plan to use because that way I have some leftovers so use elsewhere. I used my leftovers on this card to add some soft sophistication to the inside of the card.
