Welcome back!
Every month, Stampin’ Up! presents a #SimpleStamping challenge. Simple Stamping = Just Stamps, Ink and Paper. The challenges sometimes include a few other parameters. For this month, use a punch and the sentiment, Hello. I chose to use the new Tropical Leaf Bundle available as an On-Line Exclusive.

To meet this objective, I have selected the Color Throwdown (#736) colors and the sketch suggested by Shopping Our Stash (#493).


Here is the result:

Steps:
- Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Petal Pink cardstock.
- Accent Panel: (4” x 5¼”) Cajun Craze cardstock.
- Background Panel: (3⅞” x 5⅛”) Petal Pink Grid patterned piece of paper from the Design A Daydream Designer Series Paper pack.
- The Plant Stalks/Stems image was stamped with Soft Succulent ink.
- The sentiment, Hello was stamped with Cajun Craze ink.
- Focal Image – Tropical Leaves: Basic White cardstock scraps.
- The Large Leaf and the Small Leaf were stamped with Soft Succulent ink.
- The Vein detail was added with the coordinating stamps using Evening Evergreen ink.
- The Large Leaf was punched out.
- The Small Leaf was fussy-cut with Paper Snips.
The card was assembled to reflect a simplified version of the sketch. The larger Tropical Leaf was popped up with Dimensionals.
#SimpleStamping at it’s best.
