Rock'n'Roll Make'n'Take


This is the card we're making at a workshop on Saturday ('wave' to Leanne). It uses a technique called Rock'n'Roll, which is great for both beginners and more experienced stampers because you can do so much with it.

I inked up the flower stamp in Almost Amethyst, then 'rolled' the edges of the stamp in the darker shade of Lovely Lilac (both are Stampin' Up!® colours). Isn't it a great effect?
This card was inspired by a gorgeous swap I received from the very talented Marelle Taylor at Convention in Brisbane.

The bottom half of the card is covered in the Prints Designer Series paper in Certainly Celery - and this month Stampin' Up! is offering a one-off Palette o' Prints with qualifying purchases. They are gorgeous! Email me if you'd like more info on this.

The flowers are cut out and raised slightly with Stampin' Dimensionals. The card is finished with the yummy wide grosgrain ribbon in Certainly Celery and a matching rhinestone brad.
Q. Have you worked out which stamp set was used?
A. Bodacious Bouquet (page 80 in the Idea Book & Catalogue)
