Saying Goodbye to Retiring In Colors and Stamp Sets - Card 3

Hi Everyone

Welcome back to week 3 of my series to Saying Goodbye to Retiring In Colors and Stamp Sets.

This week we will be saying goodbye to Midnight Muse

I chose the colour combination from the Color Coach; Midnight Muse, Pool Party and Cherry Cobbler.

I will admit I struggled with this card, as I do with all Masculine Cards, and think just about everyone does, that’s why I like to challenge myself and make masculine cards more often. But I do like the end result.


So how did I make this card?

Step 1:
Cut a piece of Early Espresso cardstock in half at 14.8cm and score it half at 10.5cm and sponge the edges with Early Espresso Ink; this will be your card base.

Step 2:
Cut a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock to 9.2cm x 13.6cm and sponge the edges with Early Espresso

Step 3:
Next with an arrow stamp, stamp a repeating pattern, alternating between Midnight Muse, Cherry Cobbler and Pool Party.

Step 4:
Next from the Label Love stamp set, stamp the Happy Birthday and punch out with the Artisan Label Punch, and sponge the edges with Early Espresso Ink.

Step 5:
Cut a piece of Midnight Muse cardstock to 1 x 8.2 cm, and cut one of the ends at an angle, and sponge the edges with Early Espresso Ink. Next pierce two rows of dots, with your Paper Piercing template.

Step 6:
Attach the Very Vanilla piece to the Early Espresso Card base.

Step 7:
And to finish it off, attach the Midnight Muse piece towards the bottom of the Very Vanilla piece and with Dimensionals attach the sentiment over the Midnight Muse.

Sound simple enough? How about you have a go! Download the PDF so you have it on hand!
