Metallic Amaryllis Card

Today’s metallic amaryllis card is not from a kit, but without a specific kit, we couldn’t have made it.

Is that confusing or what? We started making this card with the Artful Amaryllis stamp set and bundle. We felt that the Season of Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper would be a perfect backdrop.

I think you’ll be surprised at the ink that we used for the flower: Real Red and Granny Apple Green. I don’t know why they turned out so dark, but they did.

And there’s something about the Distinktive stamps that show more shading than our regular stamps. Our camera picks up a lot of the dots that we can’t see with our own eyes!

Not Without a Kit

I must share that we couldn’t have made this card without a kit that we had on hand. We got the greeting from the Garden of Thanks kit that’s on sale for 10% off until Thursday unless it sells out first.

With the Garden of Thanks kit, you get everything to make 9 cards with coordinating envelopes. There is a stamp set, a clear block a Misty Moonlight Classic Stampin Spot.

You can save up to 30% on all available Kits (other than Paper Pumpkin) through Thursday. (That’s Halloween.)

Some kits do not have the stamp set and are really good for those just starting out their card making journey. Some have 3 Dimensional projects like these Christmas ornaments that our friend Cindy made with her granddaughters.

And if you’re wondering about what die set we used for the greeting, we used one from the Greetings of the Season Dies & double cut it. That means we ran it through once. Then we ran it through again, but slid it to make the end piece smaller.

I like how it turned out!
