World Mental Health Day – Nature’s Beauty
Today is World Mental Health Day. This year’s theme set by the World Federation for Mental Health is suicide prevention. So it seemed appropriate to use the Natures Beauty set. Why might you ask? Well of course I want you to ‘need’ ALL the stamp sets in the catalogue, but this one has a special place in my heart. For every stamp set sold in the UK, then £2.50 (€3,00), is donated to Mental Health Europe.
World Mental Health Day – Nature’s Beauty
I absolutely love stamp sets that allow me to play. I really wanted to make a card so that you would all want to buy it and help raise money for a cause that is very close to me heart. Thank you Stampin’Up! Nature’s Beauty is a lovely stamp set with beautifully drawn animals: a deer, a rabbit, a fox as well as several different groupings of trees and grass. It will be great for many different occasions.
I drew my inspiration from a stunning card made by Debby Hughes. I changed up the layout. I covered one of our D blocks with whisper White Ink and stamped it onto a piece of Sahara Sand Cardstock. I then stamped the cute little fox and the branches in Memento Black ink.
Once dried I over stamped in the beautiful Golden Glitz Delicata Metallic Ink. Its subtle but creates a lovely effect.
A piece of embossed Basic Black card, a sliver of Gold Glimmer and a stamped stamped sentiment from the Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set is all you need to finish this simple card.
Voila!
This card would work with any of the animal images and would look stunning with the trees. Its a great way to use up some small scrapes of glimmer and card stock that we always seem to collect and never use (I’m sure its not just me!) It’s also a great layout for mass production of Christmas cards but equally change up the sentiment and you could use it for notelets, thank you’s or those tricky men’s cards
