Boutique Blossoms Wreath Card

I’ve often used leaves and even small flowers to create a circular wreath on a card but this time I went with a semi-circle. Tip: start by placing a pencil mark in the semi-circle shape and build on top first with some leaves, then the flowers (odd numbers are best) then tuck in some additional floral images or small butterflies/leaves. Once I “auditioned” the card (by laying the die cuts down), I took a picture with my phone then removed them to do the stamping. I’m so please with how it turned out.

Try Tone-on-Tone stamping for a quick background layer

Using tone-on-tone stamping with the collage technique, I’ve created my own patterned paper using just one stamp from the Boutique Blossoms stamp set and Fresh Freesia ink. Another option would be to stamp with Versamark for more of a watermark look. Today’s card is a sneak peek at my monthly card class offering for July. This blogpost, has a link to the supplies used to create this beauty. Enjoy!

Beautifully Celebrated peek-through card

Must confess that I’m finally using the May Product of the Month Berry Botanical Vellum paper. It’s so beautiful that I was holding back cutting into it. Don’t do that! Be brave and enjoy the moment. I have a special friend in mind to send this card to as she’s carrying a lot these days on her shoulders. I hope this brings joy and a smile to her day. Enjoy!

It's a Delicate Dream

Bringing you a fun pop out card with the Everyday Arches as the focal point. Today’s card has loads or room for writing a large message for the recipient. To balance the layers on the front, I layered the inside with Basic White matted onto Hydrangea Hue. With this layout, you can use the thinner Basic White for your card base and be confident that it will keep it’s shape even in our humid summer climate. Gotta love those little butterflies in Hydrangea Hue to finish it off. Enjoy!
