Breast Cancer Awareness-Guneaux Designs Sliced Rock Technique

Posted on by

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I decided to create a card that features Guneaux Designs Sliced Rock Technique.  I think the card is quite cheerful, which is what a breast cancer patient would need in the way of a card.  When I was recovering from breast cancer, I thoroughly enjoyed receiving cheerful cards.  They lifted my spirits.

Using my Guneaux Designs Sliced Rock Technique, I started making the card by stamping a floral image on a small piece of Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock. The floral image is from the Stampin’ Up! Flower Shop stamp set.  Using various shades of pink, I colored the flower and began implementing the Guneaux Designs Sliced Rock Technique.  You can see that I started creating the “rings” around the flower with two shades of pink and ended with shades of yellow and green.

I stopped with the technique when I reached five rings around the flower.  I did this so I would have room for my heart design around the sliced rock floral design and to be able to stamp the Ribbon of Hope stamp around the flower.  I used Versamark Ink and White Embossing Powder for the ribbon.

To form the heart around the floral design, I placed a heart-shaped Post-It note over the flower.  Afterwards, I used a brayer to apply Pink Pirouette Classic Ink across the Whisper White card stock. Then I formed the shape of the heart with Ranger Yellow Stickles.  I think the yellow stickle helps the floral design to pop on the card.

For the sentiment on the Breast Cancer Awareness card, I used the HOPE stamp from the retired Stampin’ Up! Strength & Hope stamp set.

Flower Shop Stamp Set – MOJO Monday MOJO308

Today’s 5″ x 5″ card was created for a special sister whom I think of often and love very much.  The card features the Stampin’ Up! Flower Shop Stamp Set.  The design of the card was inspired by MOJO Monday Sketch Challenges, namely number 308 or MOJO308.   Also featured on this card is the beautiful Gingham Garden Designer Series Paper.

The round and square sketches below are for this week’s MOJO Monday.  Isn’t it nice to have a sketch to follow when creating a card?  I started participating last week in the MOJO Monday challenges, and I’m finding I enjoy it. 

I love the color combination of pink and yellow, which are the colors for one of the designs of the Stampin’ Up! Gingham Garden Designer Series Paper.  I also love bold colors, as you may have noticed, which are spotlighted on the Flower Shop Stamp Set greeting card.

Notice in the square design at the bottom right there is a spot for three elements.  I chose three Stampin’ Up! Basic Pearls and colored them with permanent markers.  Also the sketch requires a flower at the top left.  I used the Flower Shop Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Pansy Punch to create the required flower.  The flower actually is two-dimensional.  I like the leaves that I made; what do you think?  I tried to replicate pansy flower leaves.

I really like the embossing folder I used on the Daffodil Delight Card Stock.  It is an Anna Griffin embossing folder called Wildflower Gate.  The embossing shows better in the first picture above and the last picture at the bottom.
