The Maui Stamper

I don’t do a lot of vintage design. I’m drawn to the style but have a hard time adding the necessary bits and layers that define it. 

• Stamps: Timeless Texture, Birthday Blossoms
  
• Color Palette: Very Vanilla, Lost Lagoon
  
• Accessories:  Big Shot and Little Letters Thinlits, Rhinestone Jewels, Aquapainter, Stampin’ Write markers, Pansy punch, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Wink of Stella

 I markered the word “you” from the phrase “celebrate you” and used the Aquapainter to add a little extra color to the flower.

Here’s a hint: when you’re using framelits or Thinlits to create negative space like these letters, put a sheet of thin paper (printer paper works well) between the cutting pad and the thinlit. It will protect your project from embossing any stray cut marks on your cutting pads.
