Happy Thursday! Today I have a very quick, clean, and simple card to share with you all using a brand new stamp set release from Altenew. It has become one of my favorites, so let’s dive in right away.
I was able to create a simple card with lots of sweet details using one of the stamp sets from this release. This one is called Nature Snippets Stamp Set, and it has these amazing layers to create beautiful nature scenes within a circular frame!
I chose the 2nd largest image from the set that features beautiful blossoms. I know we are still in the middle of winter, but I simply cannot wait for the warm weather to hurry up and come. This card was meant for a couple that is about to embark on their new life together, so I wanted to use a light and sweet colors.
I used Sea Glass, Dusk, and Cotton Candy for the focal point scenery, and stamped the sentiment in Jet Black. A couple of enamel dots were used for a finishing touch. You can definitely omit this part, but I wanted a very small bit of neutral color on the card.
If you ever need help lining up these images, make sure to watch the layering guide video or refer to the layering guide on the back of your stamp packaging. These are quite easy to line up and very forgiving as well, so even if you are new to stamp layering, you will be just fine.
