I love the gorgeous detail in Stampin’ Up!’s Greatest Adventure stamp set, a new set that’s available in the Online Exclusives that launched earlier this month. The locomotive, designed with a Distinktive image, is GORGEOUS, and the bold sentiments are perfect for the theme of the set. Stampin’ Up!’s Distinktive stamps are made with a special texture that gives them added depth and dimension in a single step, creating photo-realistic images. This locomotive is not the only think I want you to pay attention to on this card…
Here’s a look a the Greatest Adventure stamp set, new on the recent launch of Online Exclusives:
How beautiful is that image?! So crisp, so clean. After I stamped it once with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Basic White paper, I was surprised by how nicely it fit inside the edges of the second largest Countryside Corners Dies – it’s almost like the dies were made for this image.
The Countryside Corners Dies are still available in Stampin’ Up!’s online store – they were a feature in last year’s catalog and are quietly mentioned on page 122 of this year’s book. I’m so happy they’ve carried over – here’s a look at these versatile dies:
Another product that carried from last year’s catalog into the Online Exclusives store is the Nature’s Sweetness Specialty Designer Series Paper (it’s showcased on page 107 of the new catalog). I used the Pebbled Path page of graph boxes as a lovely background to my locomotive. Here’s a look at the colors and patterns in the Nature’s Sweetness Specialty Designer Series Paper:
I heat-embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder on Pebbled Path cardstock and added three 2023-2025 In Color Sparkle Dots (Pebbled Path) to add a little shine and to further pull in the Pebbled Path color.
If you love this sophisticated combination of Basic White, Pebbled Path and Basic Black as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:
Stamps: Greatest Adventure Papers: Nature’s Sweetest Specialty Designer Series Paper, Basic Black, Pebbled Path, Basic White Inks: Memento Tuxedo Black, Versamark Accessories: Countryside Corners Dies, 2023-2025 In Color Sparkle Dots (Pebbled Path), Basics Wow!
