Today’s colors are more “springy” than Fall but they were calling to me so these are the colors you get to play with this week! Flirty Flamingo, Soft Seafoam and Granny Apple Green!
I used heat embossing as the technique and I really love the look of heat embossing it requires a heat tool which is similar to a streamlined hair dryer but it gets hotter and more focused! It melts the powder that is attached through a wet sticky clear embossing ink called Versamark.

Measurements:
BASE: Soft Seafoam 4 1/4″ x 11″
scored at 5 1/2″
scrap for sentiment piece
Basic White layer: 4″ x 5 1/4″

Stamp the floral and leaf designs in Versamark ink randomly around the Basic white cardstock layer and sprinkle with clear embossing powder.

Using the heat tool, melt the powder until it just turns shiny.

Using Blending Brushes, apply ink to the Basic White layer in a circular motion.

Stamp the birthday sentiment onto a Soft Seafoam scrap in Granny Apple Green ink and then overlay the thin sprig stamp in Soft Seafoam ink stamped off to create a lighter image in the background of the sentiment piece. Die cut with the second smallest banner from the Nested Essentials die set.

Tie the lovely new Silver and white Sheer ribbon from the Sept to Dec Mini Catalog around the center of the Basic White embossed layer.

Adhere the embossed layer to the Soft Seafoam card base and then using Stampin’ Dimensionals pop up the sentiment piece over the ribbon.

Add three 2022-2024 In Color Pearls to the card front to add a little bling in green! Your card is ready to send off in the mail and spread some joy!

Go out and create some art of your own in this color challenge trio – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’
