Natures Symphony


Here is my second swap card for the Stampin' Up! On Stage recent event. 

On this card I didn't want to use designer paper but I wanted the look of designer paper so I created it.
 
On the right Pool Party panel I used the large stamp and stamped it twice stamping off both times for a softer color. 

The far left I used two toned {dark side} Crumb Cake card stock panel I used the large stamp from the Rolling Waves stamp set and stamped it using Crumb cake ink stamping off once then stamping twice before reinking. I repeated this going over previously stamp imagers until the panel was fully covered.

I then torn the panel so show the white core and tore another piece on the lighter side exposing the white core. 

The driftwood die cut piece is popped up with dimensionals and the sentiment strip glue to the top right side.

Stamps: Natures Symphony and Rolling waves

Paper: Pecan Pie, Pool Party and white cardstock, Two toned Crumb Cake card stock.
