She used Crushed Curry for her card base and Floral Impressions designer paper. I'm so impressed by her gorgeous coloring with the Blends markers! What pretty shading she achieved!
Below you can see how she also colored the reverse side so when you flipped up the card front it's just as pretty on the inside! So neat. I also love the diagonal slant on the front.
Crushed Curry card base- 1 at 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2", another at 7 1/4" X 4 1/4" scored at 5 1/2" (cut on the diagonal) and two extra slat pieces to cover both front & inside of the card.
She combined new and current products for this beautiful card cased from Karen Hadler. That beautiful textured flower is from an upcoming bundle called Opulent Oasis. It includes a new die that textures; it’s called Textured Impression dies. I’ll share more details on this new product soon. It will be released on May 5th in the 2026 May-August catalog.
The designer paper is called Lovely & Beautiful and can be seen here. The pretty leaf die-cut is from the Nature’s Symphony dies. Here’s how it looks once opened:
So many layers!! The card stock colors include Old Olive, Petal Pink and Fresh Freesia.
Measurements:
– Olive card base 11″ X 4 1/4″ score at 2 3/4″ & 5 1/2″, second piece – 9″ X 3 34″ scored at 3″ & 6″ – Petal Pink layers 2 1/2″ X 4″ and 5 1/4″ X 4″ on the large piece. 3 pieces at 2 3/4″ X 3 1/2″ on the shorter piece – DSP 1 1/4″ X 3 3/4″ and 5″ X 3 3/4″ on the large piece. 2 pieces at 2 1/2″ X 3 1/4″ on the shorter piece – Fresh Freesia 2 1/2″ X 3 1/4″
She used the Nature’s Symphony stamp set and the Nature’s Walk designer paper here. I love the layout so much! Adding your greeting strip across the front is a fantastic way to break up the large layers. Her colors include Pretty Peacock and White.
Measurements are as follows:
– Cloud Cover card base 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″ – Pretty Peacock large layer 5 3/8″ X 4 3/8″, small layer 3″ X 4 1/4″, strip 4 1/8″ X 1″, inside is 4 1/8″ X 5 3/8″ – White 2 3/4″ X 4″, inside 4″ X 5 1/4″ – DSP 4″ X 5 1/4″
She used the Floral Charm designer paper. Actually it’s just one sheet and measured 3″ X 4″ before she tore it. The technique she used is called ‘Rip & Flip’. You tear the lower half off and flip it to reveal the other side. Slide the torn piece under the upper portion to hide the ‘cut’ side. So cool!
Look at the ribbon above the greeting circle. She formed loops of Berry Burst 1/4″ shiny ribbon and adhered it underneath the flowers and greeting. So smart and unique! The colored and die-cut flowers are from the Extraordinary Flora bundle seen here.
Measurements:
– Pretty Peacock card base 5 1/2″ X 8 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″ – Berry Burst 4 1/4″ X 3 1/4″ – DSP 4″ X 3″ – White circle die-cut
Lastly is Candy’s card featuring the Nature’s Symphony stamp set with a neat technique:
She cased this technique from Kim Quade. She created a window with the Stylish Shapes dies and another piece of paper. She used Blending Brushes inside the window for the soft, multicolored look and stamped the leaves before removing her mask.
Her ink colors include Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight and Fresh Freesia. She stamped the images with Secret Sea. Beautifully done!
