Triple Time Stamped Thank You Card

I've seen lots and lots of cards recently made using the triple time stamping technique and I thought it was time I had a go.  Wow, what a great technique and the end results are fab!  If you haven't come across triple time stamping before and would like to check it out, Dawn Olchefske has a wonderful video tutorial here.

I started off with a Night of Navy A6 card blank but I trimmed a smidgen off the card so it was 5 3/4" wide.  I then cut my mat layers and my white stamping panels, decreasing by 1" as seen in the measurements given below.

Mats were cut at:
4 3/4" x 3 1/8"
3 3/4" x 2 1/8"

Stamping panels were cut at:
5 1/2" x 3 7/8"
4 1/2" x 2 7/8"
3 1/2" x 1 7/8"

I used repositionable tape to hold my 3 white panels in place while I repeatedly stamped the Baroque Motifs swirl in Crumb Cake ink.  I then stamped the sentiment and the Night of Navy Vintage Vogue flowers.  I stamped smaller flowers on a separate piece of CS, inking in Crumb Cake ink and rock 'n rolling in Night of Navy ink.   After cutting the small flowers out I popped them up onto the larger flowers and added jewel centres.

I started gluing my panels and mats together, added some Crumb Cake taffeta ribbon, glued  the layers to the largest white panel and then glued that to the card front.

I cut a white panel for inside the card and added some Crumb Cake swirls.

Using my Simply Scored and Diagonal Plate I made an envelope from Crumb Cake CS and decorated it with stamped swirls, cut out flowers and a punched label.

I gave this card to my friend Jan and invited her to spend a 'crafternoon' with me so she could make a triple time stamping card herself as I knew she'd love the technique.  Jan came round today and made her version using the Everything Eleanor set.  Jan used Rich Razzleberry, Crumb Cake and Very Vanilla for her colours - a fab combo!  She made a beautiful card - I should have snapped a photo before she went home!
