Measure of Love Thanks

It is Thursday, do you know what that means?   It is time for the Create with Connie & Mary Thursday Challenge.  This week we have a color challenge.

I have been thinking about the Measure of Love set and the cute flower image.  The image measures about 1" which means it is a good candidate for the Stamparatus and hinge stamping.   If you aren't familiar with hinge stamping, it means you move the Stamparatus plate one hinge down.  Your image will be perfectly lined up and spaced.  The size of the flower image makes it just right to look like a continuous image using the Stamparatus.

I added the strip of Cinnamon Cider CS and the sentiment from the Artistically inked stamp set.  The sentiment was stamped on Basic White CS using Cinnamon Cider ink and then fussy cut out.  In addition I added a row of Mint Macaron Genial Gems.

I also embossed the Basic White layer using the Checks and Dots Embossing folder.  I ran the folder through two times to cover the entire card front.  These particular folders are 3-3/8" x 6-1/4" which is why it requires 2 passes with the folder.  

Thank you for stopping by!
