This or That - Bottled Happiness Cards

Friends, how about another episode of This or That? I took yesterday's card and altered the colours. Which one do you prefer?

This

Or That?

The top card features a colour scheme of Parakeet Party with Sweet Sorbet accents, while the bottom card focuses on Sweet Sorbet with a touch of Parakeet Party. Which one do you prefer?

To make the Sweet Sorbet card, here's what I did: I stamped the leaves from the Bottled Happiness Stamp Set in Parakeet Party Ink, positioning my stamp toward the top of a 3 1/4" x 4 3/4" Basic White Cardstock panel. With Sweet Sorbet Ink, I stamped the flowers, lining them up with their Parakeet Party centres. Tip: line up 2 flowers with their centres, then find a 3rd as a final check. I then stamped the bottle in Sweet Sorbet Ink. 

On a scrap piece of Basic White Cardstock, I stamped the large teabag tag from the Cup of Tea Stamp Set in Parakeet Party Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Bottled Happiness Stamp Set inside the tag, using Sweet Sorbet Ink. I cut out the teabag tag with Teacup Dies. (It's an easy cut with scissors if you don't have the dies.). Here's a look at the Cup of Tea Bundle:

To assemble the card, I started by cutting, scoring and folding a 5 1/2” x 8 1/2” card base made from Basic White Thick Cardstock. I burnished the card base fold with my Bone Folder. Next, I glued the stamped Basic White panel to a 4” x 5 1/4” piece of Sweet Sorbet Cardstock. With Stampin' Dimensionals, I attached the panels to my card base.

To finish the card, I tied a bow in White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon, attaching it to the bottle with a Mini Glue Dot. Finally, I added the tag using Stampin' Dimensionals.

This card can also be made with many other colour combinations, using the vibrant 2022-2024 In Colors. These colours include: Orchid Oasis, Parakeet Party, Starry Sky, Sweet Sorbet, and Tahitian Tide. Just look at all the different colour schemes that are possible:

I hope you enjoy playing with these fabulous colours, friends!
