Impressions of Kindness

#stampinup   #faithfulinkspirations   A little ink, a little paper, and some creativity go a long way to make a very sweet card. Stampin' Up's "Abstract Impressions" is a great set for the beginning stamper as well as for the avid, more adventurous stamper. We made today's card at the Proverbial Stampers & Friends new catalog event and it's a great, simple design!

We stamped the sentiment from "Abstract Impressions" in Blueberry Bushel Ink onto a 2-1/2" Whisper White square. We adhered this to a 2-3/4" Night of Navy square.
Next, we adhered a 4" by 5-1/4" Whisper White panel to a Blueberry Bushel Card Stock card base. We embossed a 2-7/8" by 5" Night of Navy piece with the Garden Trellis Embossing Folder and adhered this to the center of the card. We adhered a 1/2" strip of Garden Impressions Designer Series Paper on top of this piece. Then we used Stampin' Dimensionals to add the stamped sentiment piece.

For a finishing touch, we stamped one of the two-step flowers from the set in Blueberry Bushel and Night of Navy Inks onto a Whisper White scrap. We cut this out with our Paper Snips and used a Stampin' Dimensional to add it to the card front. Finally, we added a Basic Rhinestone Jewel to the center of the flower for that special touch of bling.
