Hello – Tina Newberry Designs

This card has been brewing in that creative space in my head ever since I first saw the Life is Beautiful Stamp Set. I knew I wanted to depict all four seasons and the stitched squares were the perfect mini canvases for each season. Another white on white #simplestamping card. Exactly what I had in mind.

Full list of supplies needed, listed below. A die cutting machine is needed for this card.
Card Base: Whisper White Thick 8 1/2 h” x 5 1/2″ w folded to 5 1/2″ h x 4 1/4″ w.
Background: Whisper White 5 1/4″ h x 4″ w
Squares: Whisper White Cardstock 1 5/8″ Stitched Shapes Dies

Affix all stamps to Acrylic Blocks.
Fold the Card Base in half using a Bone Folder to sharpen the crease.

Use the Bubbles Stamp with Flirty Flamingo ink for the Spring image.

Roughly lay the Squares where you want them on the Background and use as a guide to stamp the Sentiment.
