Hero Arts Large Flower Pattern Background

I CASED this card from one by rosigrid on Splitcoaststampers: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/2235805. Thank you, Rosirid, for sharing your beautiful card.

It doesn’t get much easier than this--stamp and emboss. I love this image, and it’s the first time I’ve used it. I’m giving its ID number and size because for the longest time I was confused. I admired cards I saw, and when I finally bought the stamp, it was tiny! By mistake, I bought Hero Arts Large Blossom (CG271 3” x 3 ¾”). It is also beautiful—same pattern but scaled down. I think maybe HA should rename it “Small Flower Pattern” so people like me wouldn’t get confused. Now I’m the happy owner of both stamps. This larger wood-mounted stamp didn’t give a good impression if I stamped in the normal way so I laid it on its back and pressed the cardstock onto it to make sure all of the ink transferred to the paper.

CARD:
4 ¼” by 5 ½”
Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 100 lb. cardstock (card base)
Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80 lb. cardstock (focal image)
Hero Arts Large Flower Pattern (S5471 - 4 1/4" x 5 1/2")
Versafine Majestic Blue Ink Pad
Ranger Clear Superfine Embossing Powder
Darice Foamie Sheet, 2mm. thick (to mount the focal piece)
Ribbon And Bows Oh My! grosgrain ribbon

TFL.

I have always admired this stamp and noticed right away that vivid blue that must be the versafine! What a gorgeous card! Thanks for clearing up the name of the stamp.

Heidi, I wanted to use Adirondack Denim, but that's not a pigment ink. Sigh. Daria

Daria, I LOVE this color blue ... but if you wanted something closer to denim ... do you have Distress Blueprint? Distress can be embossed if you're quick, but the coverage probably isn't as solid either. Might be close to the denim you were wanting to use. I need to look for this color Versafine! Beautiful card!

That blue rocks my world, Truly a beautiful card. I have disappointments with sizing of stamps too.
