Bright colors to brighten up your day!!!

I love using bright colors with these cute Sweet Pea stamps. Here's what I did to create this card....
  • Cut lime green cardstock 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", then fold in half
  • Cut bright pink cardstock 3 1/4" x 5"
  • Run bright pink cardstock through Cuttlebug using flowery embossing folder from the 'Just My Type' set, placing it along the right side of the piece
  • Trim 2 corners on the left side of the pink cardstock with a 'ticket' punch
  • Using a bright pink marker, highlight the edges of the pink cardstock
  • Cut white glossy cardstock 2 3/4" x 3 1/2"
  • Color white glossy with 3 alcohol ink colors and felt applicator
  • Trim each corner of glossy with 'ticket' punch
  • Stamp Sweet Pea image from plate #8 onto glossy cardstock using black India ink
  • Stamp Sweet Pea verse from plate #8 onto lime green cardstock at bottom middle using black India ink
  • Attach glossy piece to bright pink cardstock and bright pink onto lime green card using double sided tape
And now you have a very perky card to brighten up anyone's day!! Enjoy...
