Still trying out new stamp sets from the Holiday Catalogue! I like the clean and simple look using this sketch from the latest challenge from The Paper Players. I think it was the Designer Series Paper that I chose that worked together with the Wishing You Well stamp set to give such a crisp look. Here's the sketch I worked from:
The Wishing You Well stamp set is one of the DistINKtive type of rubber stamps that give different opacities of ink with just one stamping. I think it's one of the most beautiful and certainly one of the easiest to get a good image with.
- The two types of Designer Series Paper in the background here are from the Nature's Poem Series in the Annual Catalogue and the Festive Farmhouse Designer Series in the Holiday Catalogue.
- The sentiment is from a Host set in the Annual Catalogue called Hand Delivered. The font works very well with the images from the Wishing You Well stamp set.
- The glimmer paper comes from a package called Joyous Noel 6 x 6 Glimmer Paper. It has 8 each of 3 colours - copper, Merry Merlot and Tranquil Tide. I'm obviously using the Copper colour here. My colour scheme is Gray Granite, Grapefruit Grove and Copper.
- I used the Classic Label Punch to crop the sentiment and made it shorter by sticking in each end of the already punched sentiment into the end of the punch from the top and punching it shorter. Then, when I punched out the label in Copper Glimmer Paper from the Joyous Noel 6 x 6 Glimmer Paper, it was larger and showed up behind the sentiment.
- It needed a little something for interest and balance, so I added the Leaves Trinkets. I didn't have any Copper coloured ones, but I don't know if I would have used them even if I did have them. The silver make a good contrast and work with the Gray Granite.
