Hello Everyone ~ the Timeless Tulips Hello card has a lot of texture.
Well I got quite a bit finished yesterday. I got my videos made and my cards for my Facebook Live completed. I did not get the rest of the cards for this week finished. I will be working on those today after my broadcast. I also have to work on my Facebook Live for Thursday evening and my cards for my class later this month. Looks like another busy day for me!
I had not played with the Timeless Tulips stamp set in a while so I decided it needed to see some love. I began with a Blackberry Bliss card base that I embossed using the Tufted embossing folder. I used the Stitched Rectangles dies to cut out a small panel that would fit in the upper portion of the card front. Using Blackberry Bliss and Old Olive I stamped the tulips and leaves using a second generation stamping for the tulip heads. I pulled out a piece of Purple Posy and using Blackberry Bliss ink and the Very Versailles stamp set to stamp the words on it. I then attached the small piece to the bottom of the tulip image panel. The front of the card base was embossed using the Tufted embossing folder. I then attached the tulip panel in the upper portion of the card base. A small piece of Blackberry Bliss was swiped with the Embossing Buddy and then the sentiment was stamped and embossing using white embossing powder. I used the smallest Stitched Rectangle to cut it out. It was not thin enough so after I did the first cutting, I moved the other side of the die up so that it would lock into the holes on the side and cut a very narrow strip. This was added to the bottom of the tulip panel using dimensionals. Baker’s twine was used to tie a multiloop bow which was added to the sentiment strip with a glue dot. Here is the Timeless Tulips Hello creation.

I have played with the Timeless Tulips stamp set several time. Here are some ideas for you. This one uses masking to create a panel down the side of the card. This card cuts a frame from the stamped image and pops it up. This one also has some sponging but is a one layer panel.
