Gorgeous Garden dies & Blending Brushes; wow!

Check out this beautiful card made with the Gorgeous Garden dies!  

Garden Wishes leaves Lasting Joy Save

I think it's stunning.  Don't you love the pretty blending of the greens? I simply added one color to the finished die-cut.  I cut it out from Lemon Lime Twist cardstock and added Pretty Peacock ink with a blending brush in a few areas.  Easy!  

I was surprised that the finished color (after adding Pretty Peacock to Lemon Lime Twist) was close to Shaded Spruce.  Who knew?!  So I added a 1/4" strip to the left edge of the card to bring in that color and also stamped the greetings in Shaded Spruce too.  

Tip: Adding your colors in two or more ways to your project gives them a cohesive look. For example if I use green card stock I will add a layer of green or a stamped image. If you struggle with choosing color combinations stick with just two colors.  Or better yet try a monochromatic card – add one color to a neutral like white, browns or black.

I used the Lasting Joy set for my greetings.  I really love this set with the mixed fonts; I find I use it often.

I added a stitched circle to the left side to anchor the greeting.  Both of these dies are from the Stylish Shapes dies; they're a must have! See them here.  

Here are the Gorgeous Garden dies.

  • More ideas with the Botanical Layers & Lovely Layers vellum with video

    Here are two more cards I made during last week's FB Live video.  The Botanical Layers bundle includes both the stamp set and the Lovely Layers 3 3/4" X 5" vellum.  

    When I saw this piece of vellum with it's multi-hues vellum I knew I wanted to emulate a mountain scene.

    I used a direct to paper technique to add ink to this vellum.  This means you rub your ink pad directly onto the paper.  Watch the video here to see how it's done.  

    I used Tahitian Tide, Granny Apple Green & Orchid Oasis.  I stamped the flowers in Black Memento ink.  

    Tip: Vellum does not absorb ink.  It sits on top so it's best to heat set it or let it dry for an hour or more.

    For this next card I simply stamped a few of the images in the Botanical Layers stamp set onto the polka dot printed vellum.  I used Parakeet Party & Orchid Oasis inks.

    I also used the Amazing Thanks dies seen here.  A simple strip of Parakeet Party card stock across the card highlights the greeting.

    The new colors include Tahitian Tide (turquoise), Parakeet Party (green) and Sweet Sorbet (red) along with Soft Suede.  

    I shot a video of the easy steps to create this card; I hope you watch it.  See it here or scroll down to watch it below. 

    That neat cloud border is created with the Basic Border dies seen here.  I love these dies!!

    As you can see there are very few layers here; the stamped scene is all you need. 

    See the Sweet Songbird bundle here.  The bird & wing are stamped on a separate piece of White CS and punched out.  They're popped up as well as the sign (done on Sahara Sand CS).  

    Measurements:
    • Tahitian Tide card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
    • White front 5 1/4" X 4", inside is 4 3/4" X 3 1/2", scraps for bird punches
    • Sahara Sand scrap for hanging sign

  • Tea Boutique card with a pocket for a tea bag of gift card!

    Yesterday I shared the cute tea bag gift box below on the right.  Today I'll share details on the pretty card on the left.

    Tea Boutique FB live Save

    Both projects feature the Cup of Tea bundle and the Tea Boutique designer paper seen here.  

    The card is an easy fun fold where the card base is a quarter sheet of Fresh Freesia card stock.  The Garden Green piece is the part that opens and reveals the tea bag.  Of course the tea bag is optional and would work as a gift card holder also.
