You’ll love this easy sketch idea for a quick & pretty card

August 27, 2024

On last week's Live video I focused on the pretty Mediterranean Blooms designer paper and this pretty color combination:

Save

My colors include Lemon Lolly, Night of Navy, White & a touch of green in the pretty Mediterranean Blooms DSP. It's on sale for a few more days! See it here.

The card base is 4 1/4"X 11" scored at 5 1/2". The Lemon Lolly is 4" X 5 1/4", DSP is 2" X 5 1/4", Navy strip 1/4" X 5 1/4"

Each month in my Flowerbug's Team we have an optional challenge that features a sketch of color combination. This is the current sketch and it inspired me to create this pretty card.

Save

Card sketches are drawings or images that can help inspire your creativity. They're a starting point. Use the basic design and change it any way you'd like.

The greeting is from the Nested Essential dies seen here. The pretty embossing folder on the Lemon Lolly layer is called Dashing Designs and can be seen here.

Below is a video where I share a few more ideas for this DSP and the Citrus Blooms dies.

3 ways to use the Layered Floral on one card!

February 7, 2024
I shared this pretty textured card on last week's FB live video:

Save

The textured card stock is Fresh Freesia. I used a Blending Brush with Blackberry Bliss ink to highlight the gorgeous texture. The Layered Floral 3D embossing folder is amazing; it has super deep texture!

I made a second card during the video with another rich color combination of Night of Navy with Boho Blue. Note the different ways I added vellum to these two cards.

Also note the pretty texture added to the envelope flap; why don't we do this more often!?

Save

Here are the 3 ways I featured this pretty Layered Floral 3D embossing folder:
1. Textured, then added ink with a Blending Brush.
2. I textured the envelope flap and add a very light ink, again with a Blending Brush.
3. Cut out a large flower from a separate piece of textured card stock; and I punched a smaller flower using the Petal Park Builder punch – yes it coordinates!!
