Stamped Borders on a Real Red Card

On this post I am sharing a project with stamped borders on a Real Red card.

Each week Demonstrators from the Crafty Collaborations Community take part in a Monochromatic Insta Hop over on Instagram. Each week a different colour is chosen and the participants create a monochromatic card.

A couple of weeks ago, Real Red was the colour we were working with.

You can see a full list of the products I have used at the end of the post, including links to my online shop.

Stamped Borders on a Real Red Card

The Celebrate Together stamp set is predominantly designed with scrapbooking in mind.

It has nice large sentiments, alongside some smaller words that will fit in the tab images in the set.

But also in this set, there is this lovely cluster of flowers that you can use to create borders and the scalloped border stamp. I used these two stamps to add borders to a Real Red mat of card using Real Red ink. I used a back Journaling Pen to add a line of Black to the straight edge of the scalloped border. This mat was then added to a Black mat before being adhered to a real red card base.

The sentiment was stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento onto real Red card, backed with a Black mat and added to the centre of my card front with dimensionals.

I the die cut a large and some small Real Red flowers using the Impressions Abloom dies. I used the black pen to add dots to the small flowers and the black centre of the large flower was painted with Wink of Stella.

The card was embellished with a bow of Black twine and some Black Neutral Matte Dots
