hello my friend

1/18/25 Weekly Favorite at Splitcoast Stampers!

Hey everybody, happy Wednesday! Can you believe we’re already to the middle of January?! I hope it’s not too cold where you are – it’ll be a minute before Spring arrives! I’m up on the Scrapbook Pal blog today sharing a tutorial for making a clean and simple friendship card featuring the Hero Arts Floral Rainbow and Clouds Clear Stamps & Dies. I totally love color. I am all about rainbows and pretty rainbow colors, and the brighter the colors are, the better I love them! So you can imagine how much I enjoyed using these products. Hero Arts never disappoints!

I started by stamping the focal image from the Hero Arts Floral Rainbow and Clouds Clear Stamps on Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I colored it with a variety of Copic Ciao alcohol markers and then cut it with the coordinating die. Next, I cut the card base from Neenah Classic Linen 100# Solar White cardstock along with a layering panel which I cut with a Pinkfresh Studio Postage Edge Nested Rectangle die. I cut a slightly larger panel from CutCardStock Wild Salmon which I adhered beneath the postage edge panel and then adhered the panel to the card front on foam strips. I adhered the focal image along with sentiments (from the same stamp set) to the layered panel with foam squares. The finishing touch was adding a few iridescent gemstones.

I cut the inside panel from Solar White cardstock, stamped the sentiment and flower in black ink, and layered the panel on the salmon cardstock.
