Just Saying Hello!!! Today’s card is gorgeous in green.   But could be adapted to be made with any colour range you like.   It is a simple stamped card, that I stepped up with layers and a raised sentiment.   Here is the recipe.   From Just Jade cardstock I cut a card base to be ½ of an A4 sheet and one piece to be 9.6cm x 14cm. From Black Cardstock I cut 2 pieces at 10cm x 14.4cm. one for front of card and one for insert. From Whisper white I cut 1 piece to be 9.6cm x 14cm for insert and 1 piece to be 9.2cm x 13.6cm for the front of the card.   I also used Whisper white to cut my sentiment piece from the dies in the Tasteful Touches set. I used the textural stamps from the Tasteful Touches stamp set to stamp the front of the card.   I stamped off twice on scrap paper then the third stamping went on my card front.   I used Pretty Peacock, Garden Green and Pear Pizzazz.   Mix up your stamping, making sure to turn the stamp or your paper to give stamping a less ordered look
