Hi! Welcome to my blog. I’m Sara Levin aka the artful inker. Today, like many of you, I was up early to watch the Royal Wedding. I love the pomp, the tradition, the fashion… As I watched, I began to pick out colors from the Stampin’ Up! palette. Then, in came Queen Elizabeth! I knew right away what color combination I wanted to create with today. So here’s my Abstract Impressions Royal Wedding inspired card that I will send to my team member Patti for her anniversary.
Abstract Impressions Royal Wedding Inspired
The Queen was in Lemon Lime Twist and Gorgeous Grape.
So, they form the basis of my card.
Over the Lemon Lime Twist card base, I have a Whisper White focal layer.
Using my Aqua Painter, I swished in Lemon Lime Twist ink.
Next, I used the Springtime Impressions Thinlits to cut a piece of Whisper White.
To color the larger roses, I used stamps from Abstract Impressions.
To get the variation in color on the roses, I stamped
then turned the stamp and stamped again.
To color the other portions, I used my Aqua Painter to pick of ink.
This gave me even more tonal variation.
Using my Stamparatus, I was able to stamp the “thank you” from Abstract Impressions
once I had assembled the card.
I love that I can add the sentiment last with no fear when using the Stamparatus!
Finally, I added a few Pearl Basic Jewels.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out my Abstract Impressions Royal Wedding inspired card!
And thank you to Patti for another great year on my team!!

I didn’t watch the wedding live, but noticed the Queen was wearing Lemon Lime Twist right away while watching snippets on YouTube. Observant of you to also catch Gorgeous Grape! You created a beautiful card, and how creative to be inspired by the royal wedding. 👍
Thank you Lisa Marie! There were so many great Stampin’ Up! colors to choose from in the various wedding attire. But, I had to go with Lemon Lime Twist as it’s one of my faves. And it gave me a chance to play with the new Gorgeous Grape.
