It’s Monday and that means another color challenge. Today’s challenge features Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana and Flirty Flamingo!

I am using a Faux Layering technique and embossing for this simple and stunning card!

Measurements:
BASE: Coastal Cabana CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″ and scrap for
sentiment piece.

Tear post it notes or masking paper and layer on the top and bottom of the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White piece. Leave about 1 1/2″ – 2″ gap in between the post it notes.

Using a Blending Brush, layer Coastal Cabana on the bottom third of the opening.

Using a second blending brush add a layer of Daffodil Delight ink above the Coastal Cabana overlapping the colors slightly!

Using a third blending brush layer Flirty Flamingo across the top of the opening and overlap with the Daffodil Delight slightly – this creates a gradient look and new colors in the mix!

Stamp one of the images from the Online Exclusive Prairie Grass stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento ink across the Post-It notes three to four times across the paper.

Remove the Post-It notes.

Place the Basic White colored layer in the Eyelet 3D embossing folder and emboss.

Adhere to the Coastal Cabana card base.

I used a 1″ x 2 3/4″ scrap of Basic White CS and stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink a sentiment from the Prairie Grass stamp set.

I colored the cardstock with a Blending Brush and Flirty Flamingo ink.

I distressed the edges with the edge of my Snips scissors and then popped it up on Stampin’ Dimensionals and layered it in the left-hand upper corner of the card.

I added some black dots to finish off this dramatic silhouette faux layer card!

Try this technique and see what you can create – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’
