Gorgeous Notes of Nature card with free project sheet & video tutorial

I had no idea I would enjoy creating with the Nature's Sweetness suite as much as I did. It's not my usual style but I'm in love with it all!  

Here's one of the cards I shared on last week's video: 

Notes of Nature Olive Save

I used the Notes of Nature bundle and Old Olive, Black and gold accents on this card.  The large white layer is made by stamping a few of the background stamps in Black ink. I added two sets of leaves – one in green and 2 the other in the Gold designer paper. 

I want to mention what I think puts this card over the top. Of course the gold additions attract your eye but I think repeating colors a few times helps a lot. Notice how the black is repeated, the Olive is and so is the Gold. If you have trouble with color combinations, try adding one color with a neutral or two. Such as Black & White with any color.

More Details:

  • I textured the Olive layer with the Exposed Brick embossing folder and used a Blending Brush to add Old Olive ink to it. This really highlights the texture! 
  • Also notice the small strip of Gold designer paper on the top and bottom of the stamped white layer.  This is the Nature's Sweetness specialty paper. 
  • I added gold sequins and gold Elegant trim near the greeting.

  • Easy Wildflower Birthday fun fold with free project sheet & video tutorial

    I'm excited to share this card with you today.  

    Wildflowers Birthday club Save

    It's a type of Z-fold but different than I've seen before.  With two quick score lines you have an easy & unique card fold! I love how this card gives you three ways to show off our coordinating DSP.  

    I featured the Wildflower Birthday specialty designer series paper on these pretty cards.  It's filled with floral & birthday prints with splashes of gold foil.  It also comes with 2 sheets of die-cut elements as shown below which allows for super quick creating.  See it here.

    I still have a few of my pre-cut kits to go available with this pretty DSP or the PDF tutorial. See it here.

    Here's how the cards look fully opened.  For greetings I used the So Sincere which is retiring & Simply Said which is carrying over.

    Today I'm sharing two incredible fun fold swaps from our Team card swap this month.  The theme was to feature plaid. 

    April Candace Save

    Candace created her own plaid using markers on the upper left panel.  Wow!  He also used the Thankful Garden bundle for her flowers and leaves. This bundle includes dies and masks!  See it here.  

    I love the sponging she did on her die-cut leaves.  Her colors include Lost Lagoon, Soft Sea Foam and Highland Heather.  The inside die is from the Arches dies – currently unavailable unfortunately.

    Note how the front panel with the checkered banner is outside the left side of the card. 

    She used the Timeless Plaid & Otterly Adorable DSP here as well as the Arches dies.  Inside you'll find the Soft Waves embossing folder with a bit of sponging to catch the texture.
