Rooted in Nature for GDP#140

Stampin Up Rooted in Nature GDP#140 Thinking of You card Michelle Gleeson Stampinup SU

I love the Global Design Project challenges and the design team never disappoints with their creativity. This week is a Case the Designer Challenge, and the designer is Brian King.

CASE means Copy And Selectively Edit. So here is what I took from Brian’s project: textured element using ink, using nature as the focal point and a thinking of you sentiment.

The Rooted in Nature leaves were heat embossed in Whisper White Stampin’ Embossing Powder. Then using a blender pen I added Fresh Fig and Mango Melody (love this new color) to the leaves. I masked the leaves using post-it notes and then stamped the ink spots from Timeless Textures in Crumb Cake ink and finished it off by adding Crumb Cake ink with a Sponge Brayer.

The finishing touches are a piece of Fresh Fig 1/8″ Sheer Ribbon and three Basic Pearls that were colored with Stampin’ Write Markers.

The winner of this challenge will have the opportunity to be a Global Design Team guest designer for six months. There are so many fantastic crafters out there yet you can’t win if you don’t enter – right?

Thanks for stopping by!
