Sassy Stampers - May 6, 2023

It's time for our semi-annual crafter's garage sale! We combine our camp with a sale twice a year and May is the occasion for our combined camp and sale. I will not be selling this time as I have a big craft sale/camp coming up on the 20th for Crazy Card Chics. The theme this month is cards for men and this is the card the campers will make at my table:

The campers will have a choice of sentiments for both the outside and the inside. I used a retiring punch on this one, but SU has a new set of dies coming out in the new catalog (which goes live on May 2) called Nested Essentials that will cut 3 different nested shapes and one of them is the shape I used for this card. I can't order it and get it in time for camp, but I am really looking forward to getting it! The card base is a returning color called Lost Lagoon. The embossed layer (embossed using one of the 3D embossing folder trio from the Online Exclusives) is Pretty Peacock. I don't have a lot of paper from the new catalog, so I decided to make my own! I stamped the leaf clusters and the dots from the Irresistible Blooms stamp set in Pretty Peacock in a random pattern and mounted it on a Lost Lagoon rectangle which is popped up on the front using dimensionals. The sentiment is stamped on a punched piece and then the Pretty Peacock layer is hand trimmed to fit under it. The sentiment piece is also popped up using dimensionals. I added a couple of gems from a Glossy Dots Assortment pack.
