She cut down a small milk carton to insert inside the paper basket so we could add water. She added a metal frog to the inside of it to add the flowers securely. The fresh flowers lasted over a week!
Would you like to know how she made the basket? Well she made a template to share with you all as well! Download Sharon's Basket here
For the candy basket she used a brand new Pansy Petals designer paper in the new 2021 Annual Catalog.
I played with the new Botanical Layers bundle for last week's Facebook Live. This unique bundle includes a stamp set and a pack of 60 sheets of printed & plain vellum and can be seen here.
I sponged colors of Bermuda Bay, Parakeet Party & Tahitian Tide onto one side of the vellum before adhering it to a layer of White CS. I added a die-cut from the Tropical Layer dies seen here (50% off right now!) and a greeting die-cut.
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.
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
