Hello and welcome back for another Yippee For Yana video! In this video I’m creating with a stunning Pretty Petals Stamp Set from Simon Says Stamp. This is a layering set, it features several beautiful flowers, stems, and leaves. I’m using just the 2 smaller flowers for my card.

CARD IDEA
I wanted to go with a teal and gold color combination, so I used gold embossing powder for the gold part of this combo and teal inks for the teal. I first heat embossed my images in Antique Gold embossing powder from Simon Says Stamp and next, using the stamp set packaging as a guide, I stamped the layers using Seafoam, Tidepool, and Dew for the flowers; and Aspen, Sage, and Pine for the leaves.
I used coordinating dies for this stamp set and cut the images out in my Platinum 6 Die Cutting machine.
Next, I worked on a background for my card – I needed something to help me ground the elements I just made. The Simon Says Stamp Lined Arches stencil worked perfectly for this! I ink-blended the arch shape using Seaglass ink concentrating the ink heavily at the top and fading it into white at the bottom.
I also have another card where I added Citrine to the Seafoam for a more lively color combo.
My panel was trimmed to 3 ½ x 4 3/4 “ and foam mounted onto a white side folding card base – I have a lot of white on white happening here.
Next, I added the flowers and leaves using foam adhesive again (can’t have too much dimension on a card) and embellished my project with the Aura sequins from Spellbinders.
Which card do you like more?
Have fun stamping!
