Wild Card Wednesday - Witty-cisms Stamp Set and Stampin' Blends (#151686)



Our new condo has Pool Party walls in the bedroom and the bathroom.  I wasn't sure what colours to combine with such a colour.  On Saturday, I had people on Facebook, give me the two Stampin' Up! colours that they thought would match.  I LOVED all of your creative ideas!

Here is the random colour combo that was chosen from the ideas.

Colour Combo:
Thank You Minnie L for your idea!



Technique...
I decided to do a fun fold that I learned from Dawn Griffith from Dawn's Stamping Thoughts.  It is called the Peek-a-Boo Flap card!

Have a look at the video!





Measurements:

Card Base -  5 1/2 x 8 1/2, folded in half
Flap Layer -  4 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored at 4 and place pencil marks at the top and bottom at the 2 inch mark.  Turn the card around and put a pencil mark at 2 3/4.
Coordinating Cardstock - 4 x 5 1/4
Coordinating DSP - 3 3/4 x 5
Card Insert - 4 x 5 1/4
You need three sizes of circle shapes.  I used the 1 5/8 and 1 7/8 circle dies, along with the 2 1/2 scalloped layering circle die.  You could use whatever shape you prefer, based on your stamped image size and shape.

Card 1:
I LOVE this Woven Threads Designer Series Paper and decided to use these colours on my sample card.  Rococo Rose was used for the card base and the accent colours were Terracotta Tile and Very Vanilla.









Card 2:
For this card I used the randomly picked colour combination.

Colour Combo:
Thank You Minnie L for your idea!







This fold would look great with all of the sentiments in the Witty-cisms Stamp Set.
