The Love & Affection stamp set and coordinating Affectionately Yours paper create this lovely Thank You continuing the Thank You card-making theme for September. This is my favorite DSP in the current catalog, and even though it is used sparingly on today's card, I still love it.
A Night of Navy card base contrasts nicely with the Crumb Cake, Calypso Coral, and Garden Green color palette. The Crumb Cake layer was embossed with the Brick Wall embossing folder, but first the folder was inked using crumb cake to get the darker 'mortar seams' in the brick wall. Then three different types of the Love & Affection DSP was placed diagonally across the brick wall.
The Scalloped Tag Topper punch was used to create Calypso Coral and Whisper White tags. The Calypso Coral tag was stamped with the Love & Affection small flower using the Calypso Coral inkpad. The Whisper White tag was stamped with both the large and small flowers and leaves using Night of Navy, Calypso Coral, and Garden Green ink pads.
The tags were layered on top the Brick Wall and DSP. A Daffodil Delight ribbon holds the tags together and complements the Daffodil Delight in the DSP. Finally, the Thanks, from the Hello You Thinlits, was cut from both Night of Navy and Calypso Coral. The Night of Navy acts as a shadow to the Calypso Coral creating a dimensional effect. I think this is my favorite....but I may say that tomorrow, too!
The inside has a layer of Crumb Cake and then Whisper White stamped with the Love & Affection larger flower and leaves. A small strip of DSP serves as an accent and continues the theme created on the outside of the card.
