~For The Love of Stamping~: Kre8tor March Blog Hop

Welcome to the Kre8tor's March Blog Hop!

This months theme is Green Monochromatic. Stampin' Up! offers 8 different shades of green (only 7 shown in the image) which gives me tons of combinations to choose from. So, I have decided to use Soft Seafoam & Mossy Meadow for my design.

My card features the Last a Lifetime bundle that includes the Lasting Elegance dies and Last a Lifetime stamp set. This beautiful bundle can be found in the Jan. to May mini catalog on page 18.

I started with a white card base and layered Soft Seafoam on top. To create the design on the Soft Seafoam base I have used 2 of the dies from the Lasting Elegance dies. These dies give such an elegance to the card. I knew the moment I saw this bundle I had to have it. It can be used for many different occasion.

I have also used the butterfly stamps from the Butterfly Wishes stamp set from the 2019 - 2020 annual catalog (coincidentally also on p. 18). They were stamped in Memento ink (lightly as I only wanted a faint image) and colored them with Soft Seafoam and Old Olive Stampin' Blends. I finished both butterflies with Wink of Stella and rhinestones (which I colored with Mossy Meadow Stampin' Blends).

For the greeting, I used the Last a Lifetime stamp set and colored with Stampin' Blends - and of course used Wink of Stella to make the flowers pop. Finally I stamped the greeting in Mossy Meadow on Soft Seafoam card stock and cut out with the Stitched Shapes dies. I layered the greeting onto Mossy Meadow (die cut with Layering ovals dies) and popped it up on dimensionals.

I love how this designed turned out. Typically I am not a "green" person but this card has definitely swayed me. I hope you enjoyed my card that I designed for this blog hop. Now be sure to continue hopping onto the next amazing design.
