Stampin Up Venetian Romance DSP – MOJO310

Stampin Up Venetian Romance DSPMy special friend, Melody, from N.VA has left to return home, and I feel sad.  However, I am very pleased that we had a fantastic visit, and I hope to see her again soon.  Because I feel sad about her leaving, I chose to create a card that would provide comfort to anyone who has such feelings when a loved one visits and leaves.  Therefore, I am featuring the Stampin Up Venetian Romance DSP and Verve Stamps on my card share today.  The Verve Stamps “Let It Be” Stamp Set has the perfect sentiment stamp for the card:  “Every Little Thing is Going to be All Right“.  This picture provides a close up of the sentiment. Venetian Romance DSP

I think that the design I used from the Stampin Up Venetian Romance DSP is one of the prettiest designs from the DSP.  Its colors are Island Indigo and Pistachio Pudding.  I used the Stampin’ Up! Pistachio Pudding Card Stock for the card base and the Island Indigo Card Stock for a couple of highlighting elements.

I used this past Monday’s MOJO Monday MOJO310 sketch for the design of my card.  The MOJO310 sketch follows.

It is great to have a sketch to follow when creating a card.  Julee Tilman’s sketches are always beautiful.  She is one of the designers for MOJO Monday.

Venetian Romance DSP – Let It Be Verve Stamps

The Stampin’ Up! Venetian Romance DSP’s coordinating colors are Crisp Cantaloupe, Island Indigo, Pistachio Pudding, Soft Suede, Tangerine Tango, and Very Vanilla.  I chose to use Pistachio Pudding and Crisp Cantaloupe Card Stock to highlight the Venetian Romance DSP design that I used on the left side of my inspirational card below.

Venetiam Romance DSP - Let It Be Verve Stamps

This is my first time using Verve Stamps, and I especially like the inspirational Let It Be stamp set. The verse (the sentiment) for my card is from that stamp set.  I wish Stampin’ Up!’s inventory of stamp sets includes ones with Biblical verses.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Apothecary Accents Framelits, the medium rectangle accent, for cutting the Very Vanilla Card Stock on which the sentiment rests.  I traced around the same framelit onto Crisp Cantaloupe Card Stock and fussy cut it to create the sentiment’s mat.  I punched holes in the top left and right corners of the mat to insert ribbon through.  The ribbon used is the Everyday Enchantment Organdy Ribbon from this year’s Sale-a-Bration.  I colored with a permanent marker a Very Vintage Designer Button to top the ribbon and to give the appearance that the sentiment is hanging from the ribbon and button.

I embossed the front of the Pistachio Pudding card base with the Stampin’ Up Beautifully Baroque Embossing Folder.  This embossing folder is one of Stampin’ Up!’s best embossing folders.
