Tasteful Touches and Birch

One of the cards that I made for my catalogue launch was using Tasteful Touches stamp set  I created a few different styles using the same basic layout  

The card below was my favourite and the one I chose for my launch.



Card base – misty moonlight ½ sheet of A4.  Folded in half
Panel – Whisper White – 14.5cm x 10cm – stamped with images from Tasteful Touches in Balmy Blue and embossed with Tasteful Textile embossing folder
Panel – Not quite navy – 4cm x 10cm
Panel – Whisper white – 10cm x 3.2cm stamped using birch stamp set in Misty Moonlight.
Stamped Image – flower from Tasteful Touches stamp set (pg 124) in Misty Moonlight.  I have sponged the flowers.  To get that soft suble look, put some whisper white ink on a clear block, dab the sponge dauber in the balmy blue, and then dab on the whisper white.  The ink is a soft creamy texture and applies easily to the flower with minimal splodges.
Sentiment panel – night of navy – stamped in versamark and white embossing powder heat embossed.  Sentiment from lovely you stamp set and punched out with lovely labels pick a punch (pg 22) – whisper white – from the detailed bands dies, sentiment from Here’s a Card stamp set stamped in Misty Moonlight.
Stamp Sets:  Tasteful Touches, Birch, lovely you
Ink - Misty Moonlight, Balmy Blue

Paper – Whisper White, Misty Moonlight



A variation on the card above, using the oval die from the detailed bands dies.


Another variation, on a white base.

This card I used the In Good Taste designer series paper to give a nice contrast.
