Sunflower in Gray Granite

Sunflower Embossing Folder + Prayers & Promises Stamp Set + Everyday Arches Dies

The featured color for this weeks Monochromatic Insta Hop is Gray Granite. I was stumped as to what to do, so I reached for my tried and true Sunflower 3D Embossing Folder.

Sunflower Embossing Folder + Prayers & Promises Stamp Set + Everyday Arches Dies

A soft rubbing of White craft ink over the Gray Granite embossed cardstock beautifully highlights the flowers. I have added a sentiment from the Prayers & Promises stamp set.

Lovely Arrangements Stamp Set

Cutting Instructions:

Card base - Basic White Thick: 4 1/4" x 11"
Card front layer - Gray Granite: 3 5/8" x 4 7/8". This layer is embossed.
Front matte layer #1 - Basic White: 3 3/4" x 5"
Front matte layer #2 - Gray Granite: 4" x 5 1/4"
Sentiment label - Basic White: scrap to die cut using smallest arch die
Inner message liner - Basic White: 3 3/4" x 5"

Assembly Instructions:

Using Stampin' Up! Whisper White Craft Ink, lightly rub the inked pad across the embossed card front layer. Re-apply as many times as needed to achieve the look you want. My pad is just barely moist and it took four passes to achieve this look.
Using Gray Granite ink, stamp sentiment on label. Use dimensionals to adhere to card front layer. I had a small amount of overhang that I trimmed off by hand.
Adhere card front layer to front matte layer #1. Adhere to front matte layer #2. Adhere to front of card base using dimensionals.
Scatter pearls on card front.
Using Gray Granite Ink, stamp leaves in opposing corners of message liner. Adhere to inner matte layer. Adhere to inner card base.
