"Heartfelt" in Melon and Gray

Two of the great new coordinating products in the 2012 Catalog are the Layered Labels stamp set (#127072 [c] and #127070) and the Apothecary Accents Framelits (#127003)!  Once you've stamped your label image in the set, then you diecut it with your Big Shot and matching Framelit!  Easy-peasy to get custom-looking diecuts for big impact!  In fact, with all the swirls in the stamp and Framelit and the lace border at the bottom, my card will work for the Fancy Frills challenge this week at the SUO Challenge blog.

 
Black, white and gray with a splash of bright color make such an eye-catching combination!  Here I've paired a Whisper White card, a layer of Basic Black then an overlay of a Basic Gray print paper from the Twitterpated Designer Series Paper Collection (#125406).  I added a happy splash of Melon Mambo for the center label overlay and for the trim along the bottom edge.

The focal image was stamped with the "Heartfelt" label, the largest image in the set of four.  I stamped it again on a smaller piece of Melon Mambo and cut out the oval shape then layered it over the white layer.  I then stamped another image on a Whisper White scrap and diecut that with one of the Bitty Banners Framelits (#129267) and layered it on top.  I added color to the greeting with my Melon Mambo Stampin' Write Marker and two small Basic Pearls to the Melon layer as well as four more on the large label for accent.

The decorative trim on the bottom of the designer paper was cut from Melon Mambo cardstock with one of the NEW Finishing Touches Edgelits (#127010)!  It was so easy!  I love those; they make beautiful edges so easy and quick to achieve and add miles of style!

I hope you've enjoyed the card today.  You can order any or all of these Stampin' Up! products using my secure online SU website HERE.  If you wish to contact me, please do so through my SU website HERE Thank you!
