International Top Ten Winners Blog Hop meets Fab Friday #162

 
I am so happy to have been picked as #4 out of the top ten for the April challenge for the International Project Highlight Facebook group. As one of the top ten, I have the opportunity to take part in this blog hop:
I have been working on a card for Fab Friday Color Challenge with these amazing Stampin' Up! colors. Don't you just love this combination of colors?

I recently had the opportunity to go to Onstage in Charlotte, NC. My first time at Onstage Stampin' Up! Convention, too! Wonderful experience!!! I won in Prize Patrol a new set coming out in the new June 2019 catalog - called "Woven Heirlooms". This set has a beautiful long stamp with texture throughout it. I don't have a picture of it yet to show, but soon!  My first thought was to try to make my own plaid.
To make the plaid I use our Stamparatus with the step technique: that is I moved the plate down one click each time and changed the color before stamping. I stamped both horizontally and vertically with the 5 colors in the challenge. When completed, I used a ruler and the black Stamp 'n Write marker and drew lines diagonally. Lastly, I took this piece and ran it through the Puzzle Pieces Thinlit.

I mounted the puzzle pieces onto a card base and popped it up with Stampin' dimensionals.
This piece was layered onto a piece of Whisper White card stock which was cut with the Rectangle Stitched Framelits (I think I have used these on every single card I have made since they came out!). The sentiment on the outside is from the Love You To Pieces stamp set. A piece of Polka Dot Tulle finished the front.
The inside sentiment is from the Waterfront stamp set and a couple of the puzzle pieces cut with the Puzzle Pieces Thinlits.

This new Woven Heirlooms stamp set has sentiments with a beautiful font. I think you'll see many cards made with this set.

  7. What a neat way to use a smaller background type stamp! And also a great way to get all of our colors in too! The puzzle piece die is is a fun addition as well. Thanks for sharing at Fab Friday!
