Merriest Moments for CCMC742

It’s another Color Challenge For Create With Connie & Mary! This week we are working with Poppy Parade, Petal Pink, and Mint Macaron. I decided to use Merriest Moments for CCMC742. Here is the Color Board:

Here is my card:

Measurements:
  • Poppy Parade Cardstock base, 8-1/2″x 5-1/2″, scored and folded at 4-1/4″
  • Basic White Cardstock, 4-3/4″x 3-1/2″ for front layer and 5-1/4″x 4″ for inside
  • Basic White scraps for poinsettias
Stamping Details:
  • I used the Merriest Moments Stamp Set ~ Poppy Parade for the sentiment and Mint Macaron for the foliage on the front white panel. To give a variety of shades on the leaves, I used first, second, and third generation stamping.
  • For the sentiment, I stamped once with Poppy Parade, then a second time with Versamark and heat embossed with Clear Emboss Powder.
  • I stamped the poinsettias with Petal Pink on a separate piece of Basic White and cut them out by hand. For the centers I used Poppy Parade and Wink of Stella.
Putting it all together:
  • I adhered the poinsettias with Dimensionals.
  • For the final touch of sparkle, I scattered some Iridescent Rhinestones.
  • Last, I glued the stamped panel to the card base with Stampin’ Seal.
