Innovative Stamp Creations

Hi! This is the card I did for today`s Featured Stamper challenge. Beth chose Mommylvs2stamp (Kristen). I was not familiar with her or her work but her gallery has some lovely cards! Congrats! I chose this card to case.

I changed the stamps, colors,and added ribbon at the bottom rather than the middle. I kept the photo corner and the CAS feel to the card of simple layers.


This great stamp called Presence of Trees is from Innovative Stamp Creations and can be found here.

I embossed with Black Detail EP on glossy cs and then sponged with Distress Inks. Added a ribbon, epoxy Happy Birthday tag, and one photo corner that was doodled with a white gel pen. The inside I used a corner punch from EK Success. The punched out piece was used on the envelope. Thought this would make a nice masculine card but frankly I think it would work for anyone. When we go to the beach in Wilmington there are state parks that look just like this stamp. And sometimes when storm clouds start rolling in this is what they looked like to me. I chose to use this as a Spring card rather than a Winter one. Thanks for looking and have a great day!

  1. How beautiful. I love this - the trees against that wonderful sky are so striking. I love that you took it directly from your experience. Isn't Mother Nature kind to share such beauty with us.
