Ornate Garden; simply done


Today I have another card featuring the new Ornate Garden products; the new early release from the upcoming 2020 Annual Catalog.  You can see all of it here. 

For this card I chose to use the Ornate Border dies for the pretty edge. The greeting is from the Ornate Thanks set and the embossed daisy is from the Ornate Style stamp set.

You might see a little halo around the right daisy…. I first stamped it in Terracotta Tile, but it didn't show up well enough.  So I tried to stamp again to heat emboss it in White.  I was off a bit but I'm okay with it anyway. The stitched oval is a die from the Stitched Shapes dies.  

I made a bunch of these for a swap last month; it's a pretty easy card with just a few special 'extras'.

  • 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.
