I know it looks like a lot, but once you have the inks you've got them for sooo many more projects!
Cut the Crumb Cake 4 1/8 x 5.25.
Stamp with Crumb cake ink the Hardwood (remember to keep the stamp on the table, facing up, and lay your paper on top, using a brayer or even your stamping block to smooth it out) You get much more consistent coverage this way.
Stamp your banners any way you like. I did the HI one is Calypso Coral and Summer starfruit on either side, with pool party and pistachio pudding on the ends. Glue to basic black and fussy cut so they have a nice 1/8 or so border. Punch holes and using a needle, thread gold twine through, creating a hanging banner. Set aside.
Using the blue flower print from your designer series paper (DSP), but a 3" circle, (using framelits or whichever cutting method you use). Then out of Basic Black, but out the next size up to create a mat. Glue together and glue to Crumb cake hardwood background.
Using the Black/multi DSP paper, cut a piece that is 3.75 x .75". If you have pool party card stock, then cut a piece that is 3 7/8 x 7/8" for the mat. If you like, you can use whisper white, and ink the edges with pool party, or whichever color you like!
Using your petite flowers stamps, punch three flowers of your choice and pattern. Punch and curl petals. I also punched small solid flowers in the same colors that I stamped them, and curled those petals as well. I put the solid flower with petals curving towards the card, and the flower with the petals curving towards me. Place on card using a stamping dimensional, and add rhinestones as desired.
Now take your banner, and punch a hole on either side of the card... thread your twine through them and half tie it, bringing the twine to the back of the card. Adhere using small scraps of paper to keep it clean.
You can mount your card front on black, or even the pool party and it would look fantastic! Or if you're going for another dominant color, use that one! It's your choice! With these supplies, you could create a ton of these in different color combinations and patterns of DSP!
