Delicate Botanical Expressions card with video & free project sheet


Before I share today’s card I want to remind you that today is the last day to take advantage of the Designer Paper and Card stock sale. Go here to shop and grab the deals on paper.

Here’s the pretty card I shared last week on video. We made them at my August Card Clubs. Sadly it was the last Club I’ll hold in Minot. Our house has an offer in pending and I’ll have just one last event this Thursday there. My home studio has so many wonderful memories from my friends/customers. It’s hard to say goodbye!

I’m holding my Holiday Catalog open house September 3rd from 3:30-6 pm. If you’re local please come to see me (and the displays, food and deals!)

It features the new Botanical Expressions die (the white leaves die-cut) seen here. It’s a single die that can be used in multiple ways. I especially love the cut lines in the dies.
*Tip: rub waxed paper over the cutting side of your dies every few cuts; it releases the card stock easily then.

Here I adhered it over dark green DSP and added Barely Blush DSP above and below it. There are so many pretty details here!

The floral DSP is called Bloom Boutique Specialty paper and can be seen here. It’s filled with gold foil highlights.

This card is a landscape gatefold card. The Peaceful Pine layer is adhered to only the left side of the card base.
My greetings are from the Scalloped Blooms and Framed Violets sets. The inside flowers are from the Flowering Meadow stamp set.

That pretty scalloped greeting die is also from the Scalloped Blooms bundle seen here.


I created a free project sheet for this card. Click here to print or download it. It has measurements, supplies, photos and directions.

I also shared the ‘how to’ video below. I hope you watch!

  • Gathering Moments swap; I love creating my own paper!


    Here’s a pretty card I made for one of the online swaps I joined last month:

    I used the new Gathering Moments stamp set with the new Traditional Labels dies.

    The card stock colors are Lost Lagoon, Timid Tiger and Very Vanilla.  Inks are Timid Tiger, Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock and Pecan Pie.

    After stamping I used a Blending Brush to add Lost Lagoon ink around the edges and on the greeting die-cut too.

    I love creating cards for swaps!  I find it very relaxing to make multiples of my creations.

    You can see this stamp set here.  It has a set of dies as well.  See the Traditional Labels dies here.  

    I’ll be sharing many more cards with this pretty new bundle next week.
