The beautiful forsythia branch from the Delightful Wishes Bundle makes me think of spring. These bloom early on and are so pretty. I used the Floral & Gingham Vellum to create the triangles.
I made the card for this week’s Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge. Click on the sketch to see the other projects posted for this week.
Tips & Instructions
Thick Basic White Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4
Pool Party Layer - 4 x 5 1/4 , use the die to create the peek-a-boo flowers on the layer. Adhere the layer to the card base.
Cut 2 triangles from Basic White and 2 triangles from the Floral & Gingham Vellum. I created a template on a piece of Post-It Note and layed that on the pieces to cut the triangles. They should all be the same size. Adhere the vellum triangles to the White triangles. I adhered them together using a little Liquid Glue that I smeared on the Vellum so it wouldn’t show through.
Adhere the triangles to the card.
Die cut the branch from Early Espresso Cardstock.
Stamp the flowers on Basic White Cardstock in Daffodil Delight ink. I stamped the detailed image first directly and then the filler image after stamping off first to get a lighter shade. Die cut with coordinating die.
Stamp the leaves on Basic White in Old Olive ink. Die cut with coordinating die.
Adhere the branch to the card with Liquid Glue and the flowers and leaves with Glue Dots.
Stamp the sentiment on 3/8 strip of Old Olive in Versamark ink. Heat emboss with White Embossing Powder. Banner each end and adhere with Dimensionals.
On the inside layer (4 x 5 1/4) stamp the sentiment in Pool Party ink. Stamp the flowers in Daffodil Delight, leaves in Old Olive and the branch in Early Espresso inks.
I wasn’t sure about this sketch but love how it turned out.
