This weeks Sketch Pad gave me the opportunity to highlight for you the delicate watercolor effects of the English Garden Designer Paper. I have so much enjoyed the watercolor effects of the English Garden Paper that I don't want you to miss out before it retires May 31st!
The flowers were stamped with the Flower Patch Stamp Set and die cut with the coordinating Flower Fair Framelits. The flowers and leaves were then heat embossed with clear embossing powder to create a beautiful depth of color and shine!
Start with cutting two Island Indigo cardstock 5 x 6 1/4, two Soft Sky cardstock, two Island Indigo cardstock 5 1/4 x 3 1/2, and two English Garden Designer Paper 5 x 3 1/4.
Stamp flower in Island Indigo and leaves in Always Artichoke Ink on to watercolor paper. Stamp all images with VersaMark Ink and Stampin Clear Emboss Powder. Heat with Stampin Heat tool to create dimension and shine! I love the effect of embossing to create an elegance and 'WOW' to your design!
Die cut the images with the Big Shot Die Cutting machine. Arrange on the front and inside of the card, so you know the desired placement of your designer paper.
To create the sentiment tags for the front and inside of the card use Island Indigo cardstock, Soft Sky cardstock, and Whisper White cardstock. Die cut with Lots of Framelits two sets of matted tags and stamp with Elegant Eggplant ink and sponge edges with Island Indigo Ink.
Mat the English Garden rectangles with Island Indigo cardstock and add Island Indigo 1/4 Cotton Ribbon to front.
Adhere die cuts to the inside of the card. Remember to! layer the flowers to add interest and dimension. Also, by adding a flower near the sentiment creates the sentiment as the focal point of interest!
Adhere the flowers and sentiment tag on the front of the card with Stampin' dimensionals.
Oops, I almost forgot the bling!
Give this beautiful card on Mother's Day to let her know how special she is to you!
