Olive Branch

This week I’m using the stamp set Olive Branch and here I’m using the new Parakeet Party colour.

I took the Olive Branch stamp and stamped it three times in Parakeet Party making a ring. This was then matted in Parakeet Party and layered on a white card base.

Next I stamped the sentiment and die cut it using the Stitched Rectangle dies and added that to the card using dimensionals. Finally I added some basic rhinestones after coloring them using the dark Parakeet Party blend.

I made this card plus 2 others using this set on my Facebook Live this morning (Sunday) at 11am Eastern. I also uploaded the video to YouTube.

Olive Branch

This week I’m using the stamp set Olive Branch and I decided to jazz it up with silver embossing.

This card stock is Starry Sky which is one of the new incolors. I love this one, it’s so rich and therefore perfect to have silver embossing on it.

I stamped the image in Versamark and then sprinkled on the silver embossing powder and heated. This is when I decided to add the sentiment, from the Olive Branch set so I got out the heating tool again. Next time I make this, I’ll do all the stamping at once!

The embossed piece was matted with silver foil and then mounted onto a Starry Sky card base.

I’ll be making this card plus 2 others using this set at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am Eastern. I will also post the video to YouTube.

Olive Branch

This week I’m using the stamp set Olive Branch and here’s my fairly predictable, first card.

I tried Soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen and Shaded Spruce for this and pulled up an image of a real olive tree to decide on the color. After consultation with my brother we decided that Soft Succulent was probably closest but that Evening Evergreen looked better. So, Evening Evergreen it is!

I stamped the image onto a white layer including the sentiment from Olive Branch. Next I added an Evening Evergreen mat and then added that to a white card base. Clean and simple.

I’ll be making this card plus 2 others using this set at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am Eastern. I will also post the video to YouTube.
