Hello and welcome to this Saturdays blog post. I am so glad you could join me. Whether you have hopping along from the ‘Global Design Project‘ page or come straight here, it is fabulous to have you here. Today I am sharing with you a card I have made using the ‘Lovely You’ Bundle.
When I first saw this bundle in the new annual catalogue, I knew it was a must. I adore the font used for the sentiments, as well as the sentiments themselves. Each sentiment has a lovely, flowing, handwritten word or two. The flower images are simple, yet elegant and I have many ideas that I will be sharing with you in the future.
For my card today I am following a sketch, set by the ‘Global Design Project’. I knew straight that I wanted to combine this sketch with the ‘Lovely You Bundle’. I hope you enjoy.
Miles apart, but still in my heart.
Take an A6, 10.5cm x 14.9cm, ‘Pear Pizzazz’ card base and randomly stamp your image, using ‘Pear Pizzazz’ ink. Cut a piece of ‘Very Vanilla’ card stock, measuring 8cm x 14.cm, emboss this using the ‘Greenery’ embossing folder. Wrap gold trim, from the ‘Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack’, around three times and adhere to your card front.
Die cut a circle from ‘Pear Pizzazz’ card stock, using the ‘Stitched Shapes’ dies and adhere to your card front, using ‘Stampin’ Dimensionals’.
On a piece of ‘Very Vanilla’ card stock, stamp several of each foliage image using ‘Pretty Peacock’, ‘Garden Green’, ‘Pear Pizzazz’ and ‘Soft Seafoam’ ink. For your flower images use ‘Stampin’ Write Markers’, (‘Soft Seafoam’, ‘Flirty Flamingo’ and ‘Gorgeous Grape’) to colour your stamp, this allows you to do two colour stamping. Fussy cut your images and adhere your foliage to your card front, under your circle.
Stamp your sentiment, using ‘Memento Tuxedo Black’ ink, on a strip of ‘Very Vanilla’ card stock 3/4″ deep. Using the ‘Lovely Labels Pick A Punch’ punch, punch either end on your sentiment. Adhere to your card front, using ‘Stampin’ Dimensional’ and add your flower image, tucking them in behind. Finish with a few ‘Pearl Basic Jewels’.
