Awesome Hibiscus Stamped Background + Giveaway (Now Closed)

Awesome Hibiscus Stamped Background

This post is also available in Українською мовою

I’m packing a suitcase for a trip to Poland with my hubby and mom and while I still have a moment I wanted to share I card made using the Hero Arts Hibiscus Color Layering stamp set. I’ve been wanting to use it, but I had no idea what colors to pick for this flower, so I went to Pinterest last night and looked up Hibiscus images and got inspired to do some stamping.

One might think that it would take a lot of time to stamp a background like this, but it really doesn’t. I don’t think I spend more than 30 minutes making a background for this card. I wanted to stamp Aloha, but it turns out I don’t have a stamp like that, what a shame. I used a sticker from Seven Papers (discontinued) instead and since it already had some gold on it I layered it on top of a gold heat embossed heart that I created using a pretty heart image from the Love By Lia set and vellum.

I used a few colors of ink to do my stamping – started with the Soft Vanilla, added Butter Bar on top and used Orange from the Yellow to Orange ombre pad as my darkest color. For the leaves I used Mint Julep, Tide Pool and Navy, I just really love this color combo and keep coming back to it over and over again.

I used Hero Arts black layering paper for the base of my card and added black pearls to finish the project. Love the way it turned out, perfect for summer!

  2. Perfect Yana! I love hibiscus and you have captured the color of this particular one very well! Have a safe and wonderful trip 🙂

  3. I love the color combination! I like to travel but my family does not(teengagers), so for now I will enjoy staying at home with the kids!

  4. Дуже гарна листівка. Ви зовсім не боїтесь використовувати чорний колір, на Ваших листівках він виглядає дуже елегантно.
    Я теж дуже люблю подоружавати, особливо по Україні. Хочу об’їхати всі замки.

  5. This card is just beautiful Yana! Love the soft, buttery yellow of the flowers with the black sentiment panel and the gold embossing on the heart!

  9. Яно, в тебе вийшла така літня насичена кольорами листівка!
    Чи люблю я подорожі – так! Але з дітьми поїздка до місця призначення перетворюється на випробування. Мрію про відпочинок на морі!
    Дякую за шанс!

  11. Яна, замечательная открытка! Навевает мысли про отпуск и путешествия) Я люблю путешествия, особенно летом на море, а зимой в Карпатские горы!

  12. Чудова листівка!!! Мені дуже подобаються твої листівки з відштампованим фоном.
    Що стосується подорожей, то їх просто обожнюю!!! Ми подоруємо зазвичай сім’єю з нашими двома донечками;)

  14. I love travelling but I always have to take a minimum but meaningful amount of craft supplies with me. Inspiration comes when I least expect it and I would like to keep my hands busy at all times.

  15. Открыточка как всегда чудесная! Я путишествовать ооочень люблю! Больше всего мне нравится путишествовать на машине хотя недавно открыла для себя поезд, впервые сама ехала поездом, я даже специально заказала верхнее место, мне так хотелось там полежать, надо было видеть глаза кассира, когда ее попросили именно верхние места))

  16. Yana, you are so amazing. I always love to see your color combinations, they are not always traditional but they are beautiful. Thanks for sharing your love of stamping and card making with me and everyone else.

  17. I love to travel, but unfortunately my hubby isn’t as enthusiastic! Thanks for the giveaway! Your card is so gorgeous!

  20. Чудова листівка! Прекрасне поєднання кольорів. Ніколи не думала, що м’ятний так гармонує з жовтим. Взагалі, Яно, всі твоі листівки вражають кольоровою гамою. А подорожувати я дуже люблю. Напевно, немає таких людей, яким це не подобається. І велике спасибі за розіграш. Всім удачі!
