Varied Vases will be one of the new stamp sets offered in the upcoming 2018-19 Annual Catalog. At this time only those demonstrators that attended OnStage had the opportunity to purchase this set (and it’s coordinating punch) early. So I played around with the stamp set this weekend after being inspired by what the stamp set designer, million dollar achieving demonstrator, Mary Fish shared on her blog. And here is my first card. I love it!
I loved the look of the overlapping images of the vases and the Whisper White layer on Whisper White card base that Mary had done…such a clean design. I wanted to keep the sentiment pretty easy though, so didn’t do any embossing on mine.
Here is one more version using a different sentiment from the set and sequins instead of rhinestones.
Measurements:
- Whisper White cardstock: 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ folded in half at 4-1/4″ for the card base & 3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″
- Pineapple Punch cardstock: strip that is 3/4″ wide
- Coastal Cabana cardstock: strip that is 1/2″ wide
Products: See below for a full list of supplies linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Helpful Tips:
- Trim the left end of the Coastal Cabana cardstock strip and the Pineapple Punch strip to create the look of a banner.
- Stamp the sentiment on the Pineapple Punch strip.
- Attach this to the Coastal Cabana strip and then attach to the 3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″ Whisper White piece about one inch from the top. Trim off any excess extending off the the right edge.
- Stamp the vase, flower and leaf images. (The short vase is a lighter shade of Grapefruit Grove ink than the flowers because I stamped onto scrap paper first.)
- Attach stamped layer to the card base with Dimensionals.
- Then embellish with either Rhinestones or sequins.
June 1st is the magic day! And there are many other fabulous products that will also become available from the new catalog that day. I’ve been pinning some fun card ideas on Pinterest!
If you absolutely can’t wait until June, consider purchasing the Starter Kit so you can get in on the demonstrator perk of purchasing early. (Yep! All demonstrators get to preorder new products in May!)
