This is my “stepped up” card with lots of detail. I was looking for some cards to make for swaps at Stampin’ Up! OnStage event in Richmond. I also wanted to make a card with more detail to keep for me and use for a future class.

Here are the details of this card:
The card base is So Saffron cardstock cut to 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ and scored at 4 1/4″. Next is a layer of Pool Party cardstock that I have embossed with the Boho Chic embossing folder. The center piece is a 4″ x 3″ piece of the Cupcakes & Carousels designer paper with a layer of Bermuda Bay cardstock that is 4 1/8″ x 3 1/8″.
The Carousel horse is stamped with Chocolate Chip ink and colored with the Watercolor pencils and a blender pen. These are stamped on Very Vanilla

The second card is made with the coordinating Calypso Coral color hue. The card base is Very Vanilla cardstock. The first layer is a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Peekaboo Peach cardstock embossed with the Boho Chic Embossing Folder. I used the small Pearl Jewels to accent the details of the saddle.
So which color combination do you like better?
Can’t wait to see what i get back for swap cards tomorrow!
Happy Stamping!
