I joined The Stamps Of Life monthly stamp club and while I was in their booth, I bought a few stamps to get me started! This card is a knock off of one of their samples for the stamp set they call "Swirls 4 Words." I love the whimsical swirly stamps and I'm sure you will see more creations made from this stamp in the future!
- The card base is white and the size is an A2 card (4 1/4 inches X 5 1/2 inches, folded).
- Cut a pink cardstock piece, 4 inches X 5 1/4 inches.
- Cut a white cardstock piece, 3 3/4 inches X 5 inches.
- Stamp the single swirl stamp all over the white cardstock. I use a purple stamp ink for this card.
- Stamp the single solid flower in the center of the swirls. I used pink that matched the pink cardstock.
- I used my Silhouette machine to cut the scalloped oval from pink cardstock and white cardstock. The size of the pink oval is approximately 2 X 3 inches. The size of the white oval is 1 1/2 X 2 inches. Layer the two pieces together and stamp the sentiment in the center of the white oval. I chose to use "My Friend" on this card. Other sentiments included in this stamp set are: Happy Birthday, Hello, Thanks, and Smile.
- Adhere the white stamped piece to the pink piece. Wrap a piece of sheer hot pink ribbon around these two pieces and tape securely on the back. Glue down the pieces to the card base.
- Place 1/16 inch thick pop dots on the oval and place over the top of the ribbon slightly off center.
You can add jewels or glitter to the flowers to sparkle it up a little, but I chose to just leave it plain because that makes it easier to mail! Hope you like this simple card!
