NEW Soft Seedlings set ideas

I joined a few online swaps and decided to use the Soft Seedlings set (seen here) as I wasn't quite ready to play with Christmas yet.  I love the distinktive quality of the main image and the greetings are some I use often. *Distinktive is a process Stampin' Up! developed for their images that gives multiple hues of color on a stamp. 

Save

For my colors I chose to use Cherry Cobbler, Soft Succulent and a bit of Evening Evergreen with Vanilla. 

Save

Details:

• I stamped the background in Soft Succulent ink on the Vanilla CS and sponged the edges.  
• The strip of Soft Succulent CS is embossed with the new Leaf Fall 3D embossing folder. 
• I stamped the leaf images in Soft Succulent ink and sponged ink directly on the stamp.  I added a bit of Cherry Cobbler on one side and Evergreen on the other. Then huffed and stamped on a scrap of Vanilla CS.  It's fussy cut and added to the card with a Vanilla twine bow.  
• The greeting is from the stamp set and die-cut with a die from the Potted Succulents dies. 

Save

Measurements:

• Cherry Cobbler card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
• Vanilla 4 5/8" X 2 3/4"
• Soft Succulent 1 1/2" X 4 1/4"

• Butterfly Bouquet & the Origami Window Fold

  March 2, 2021

  ---

  Here's another favorite project I've made with the new Butterfly Bouquet products.  Are you a fan of butterflies?

  Save

  I call this unique fold the Origami Window.  It's done by folding a 4 X 4" piece of designer paper a few times.  See details here or watch my video here. 

  The colors are Highland Heather and Pool Party. See the neat texture on the purple CS strip?  That's one of the dies in the Butterfly Wings dies!  You can see them here: 

  Save

  That pretty texture on the inside White square is from the Meadow Moments pair of embossing folders seen here.  They fit in your die-cutting machine but they were made narrow enough to fit in the new Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine too!
