I have had the Vintage Vogue Stamp set for quite a while now, but haven't shown it on my blog. Tonight I was being creative with a birthday card for a friend and wanted to use the Faux Quilt technique but also accent it differently than the other cards I have done previously.
Card base is Whisper White.
Handsome Hunter was used for the green layer.
Pretty in Pink was used for the pink layer.
The Big Shot Top Note die image was made with 1 1/4" squares from scraps of paper I had.
Vintage Vogue is one of Shelli's Signature Collection Stamp sets and can be found in the currently in the Occasions Mini Catalog. Item #117690 for the wood mount and Item #118598 for the clear mount stamp set. Each is a set of 8 stamps.
I stamped the larger flower with Rose Red Classic Ink and the smaller flower with Pretty in Pink Classic Ink. I then layered them and put them together with a brad. By attaching them together with a brad and then putting a dimensional in the center back, it allows the flowers to be upraised from the card. This gives them dimensions.
This is a close up to show how they are upraised from the card.

Beautiful!!!!
Pretty card! I love it! I need to try that quilting technique!
very beautiful, Mary. I wasn't sure if I could make 10 totally different papers work together (that's why I kept mine monochromatic), but you definitely got it to work on this one. Love those flowers too! Thanks for playing with us at 365 Cards this week and hope to see you again in the future!

Wonderful creation, Mary. I didn't think 10 different papers could work together (that's why I kept mine monochromatic) but you definitely rocked it on this one! Thanks for playing with us at 365 Cards this week and hope to see you again in the future!
