See my theme of colors? I chose six colors and interchanged them! Adding a thin strip of Gold Foil to each, as well as the center strips were embossed with the Wrapped in Texture Embossing Folder pair.

I used the coordinating Tag Buffet Stamp set as well. It is an awesome set as it includes the inside greeting as well!

Hello last week of October!!! Last week? Where did this month go?

I’m finishing the week out by playing with the Tag Buffet Kit and Tag Buffet stamp set.

TAG BUFFET PROJECT KIT TAG BUFFET PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET (ENGLISH)

Today, I’m using one of the extra trees in the kit and some hinge stamping –

libbystamps, Stampin' Up!, Tag Buffet, 'Tis The Season 6 x 6 DSP, Tag Buffet Kit, Stamparatus

Isn’t this just the prettiest??

Using the Stamparatus and grid paper, I place my stamp on a line making sure it was even. I practiced the hinge stamping to see how I liked it. Once I did, I added my Whisper White and Real Red ink. To add interest, I moved my paper down half an inch and stamped the sentiment in Flirty Flamingo the same way, hinge stamping style.

I backed it with a piece of ‘Tis The Season 6 x 6 (it’s on sale until October 31st). I added the tree from the Tag Buffet kit, grounding it with a scrap of the same card stock.

The Soft Sea Foam base is a nice, subtle color for this card. What are your thought?
