This week's Technique Challenge on SCS is a Stand Up card. There are excellent directions in the thread on SCS. What a great card that can be used as art! If you are attending Stamp Camp this month (July 10 in Plainfield, IL and July 12 in Hoffman Estates, IL), you will make a Stand Up Card (colors, stamps will be different than my example here). Click here to register for Stamp Camp today--deadline is July 8.
I kept this card pretty simple since it was my first shot at the Stand Up card. I stamped two of the flowers from Fifth Avenue Floral with Melon Mambo ink on Melon Mambo card stock for the side panels. Then I ran the Manhattan Flower Embossing Folder through the Big Shot using Melon Mambo card stock. All my layers are matted with Basic Black--it really makes the Melon Mambo pop! I added a piece of Basic Black Grosgrain. My "thanks" is from Fundamental Phrases. I used the Small, Large and Scallop Oval Punches to layer the sentiment.
Be sure to check back after 11am Central Time. I will have this week's Stampin' Up! Deal of the Week! Ooooh who doesn't love a deal!
Thanks for the visit!
