This sweet little card was created using the Let’s Go Shopping Bundle and the Les Shoppes 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. I had a blast putting this card together!
If you follow my blog, you have heard me talk about one of our favorite get-away-spots…Cape May, New Jersey. Cape May is a little seaside town filled to the brim with Victorian homes and stores! The Let’s Go Shopping Bundle reminds me so much of Cape May and so, of course, I had to color the little store using Cape May-like colors! The Victorian structures in Cape May are really this bright and bold! And, yes, there are pink houses and stores!
For my card for today, I started with a Balmy Blue card base and added a cobblestone pattern paper from the Les Shoppes Designer Series Paper pack to a mat in Sweet Sorbet. I then added the panels to the card front. I then began stamping, coloring, and die cutting all of the components for the storefront. You can access the pdf tutorial for this card below which goes into greater detail on all of the colors I used.
The storefront was adhered to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals as was the potted plant. The lamp was adhered to the card front using liquid glue. I added a Flirty Flamingo sentiment label to the top of the card front, stamping the sentiment to the right, and adding black Classic Matte Dots to the left of the sentiment label. Here is a close-up view…
The inside panel was stamped with an easel sign and potted plant. The panel was adhered to a Sweet Sorbet mat then this unit was adhered to the inside of the card.
The same potted plant was stamped onto the envelope front and a coordinating piece of designer series paper was adhered to the envelope flap.
