Strong and Beautiful Blue Card with Bokeh Dots

#1 Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Pootles – Strong and Beautiful Blue Card with Bokeh Dots

Have you seen the Strong and Beautiful stamp set in the Spring Summer catalogue (page 48 if you haven’t!). The phrases are just wonderful. Who dreams them up, I’ve no idea, but it’s as though they’re inside my head, writing the words I want to share not just with my Mum, but with others around me.

The phrases are interchangeable, though the fonts do lead you to one pairing or another, or as I’ve done, just use part of it.  The rest of this sentence reads ‘you have truly been a shining example to me’ but either part works as a standalone piece.

I wanted the words to do most of the work, so I stamped them in Blueberry Bushel over Balmy Blue stamped Bokeh Dots (the star one) and felt that was enough.

However, I’m a fan of tone on tone stamping of the main card blank, so I took a different phrase from the same set, and stamped it all over. It reads ‘You have what it takes to be unstoppable & I couldn’t be more proud’

Some cards don’t need extras, so other than 5 tiny rhinestones, I am letting the words, font and bokeh dots do the talking. Simple for me and perfect to share.
