Another VSN challenge this weekend was to create a Free Standing Pop-Up card. I always forget about this card fold and was happy to participate.
My centerpiece was cut with Long Rectangle Nestabilities out of Chocolate chip cardstock. It was cut down to 5″ and sponged with Walnut Stain Distress ink. A 2 13/16″ x 4 3/4″ piece of Whisper White cardstock was embossed with the Cuttlebug Argyle Embossing Folder and sponged with Linen Distress ink. It was stitched to the Chocolate Scallop layer.
The medallion stamp from Verve’s Accent Notes was stamped in Forest Moss Distress ink on Whisper White cardstock. It was cut out Label 1 Nestabilities and sponged with Crushed Olive Distress ink (yes….my new Distress ink colors arrived and I absolutely LOVE them!). The sentiment is from the same Verve set. It was stamped in Walnut Stain Distress ink on white cardstock, cut out with Circle Nestabilities, sponged with Crushed Olive and Forest Moss ink and then layered on a slightly bigger chocolate scallop circle.. The sentiment was adhered to the center of the medallion image. That layer was adhered to a scallop square that had been cut with Square Nestabilities. To finish this layer off, Hero Arts Pearls were added to the medallion. The centerpiece was adhered to the long tag with dimensionals.
The card base was created out of a 4 1/4″ x 11″ piece of Old Olive cardstock. The entire piece was stamped with one of the square images of the Accent note stamp set in Forest Moss, then sponged all around. White Satin May Arts ribbon was tied around the base and a double flower (bigger flower from Stampin’ Up!, smaller flower from Prima. Brad from Recollections) was adhered on the left side of the base.
Have a wonderful day! Thanks for stopping by! Hugs and smiles
