Sketch Saturday - Heirloom Bloom

This week’s Sketch Challenge was a fun one for me. I used the Heirloom Boutique Bundle and added a piece of the Berry Botanical Vellum which is the May Product of the Month.

 
 

Here’s the sketch I used from the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.

 
 

Tips & Instructions

  • Thick Basic White Card Base - 5-1/2 x 8-1/2, score at 4-1/4

  • Basic White Layer - 3-7/8 x 5-1/4

  • Berry Botanical Vellum Specialty Designer Series Paper - 3-7/8 x 5-1/4, adhere to the white layer. I used liquid glue and smeared it with my finger to get a thin layer so it wouldn’t show through.

  • Basic White Layer - 3-7/8 x 4, stamp the sentiment at the bottom and adhere the layer to the center of the Vellum layer. Adhere layers to the card.

  • Fresh Freesia - die cut using the largest Everyday Arches Dies. Cut off the bottom to make the arch 2-1/4” long. Adhere to the card.

  • Using the Heirloom Bloom Dies, die cut 3 flowers (2nd from smallest flower die) from Fresh Freesia and 2 flowers from Barely Blush. Die cut 3 flower centers from Barley Blush and 2 centers from Fresh Freesia. Adhere the centers to the flowers. Adhere the flowers to the top of the arch with Glue Dots.

  • Die cut 2 sprigs from Granny Apple Green.

  • Stamp 5 sets of the small leaves in Granny Apple Green ink on Granny Apple Green Cardstock. Die cut with coordinating dies.

  • Trim the sprigs and adhere the sprigs and leaves around the flowers with liquid glue.

  • Add a Barely Blush Butterfly and some Barely Blush Dots.

 
 

On the inside layer (4 x 5-1/4), stamp the sentiment in Fresh Freesia ink. Stamp the floral image in Black ink. Color the flowers with a Barely Blush Shimmer Brush and the leaves with a Light Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends Marker and the flower centers with a Dark Fresh Freesia Stampin’ Blends Marker.

 
 

This would be a great wedding or anniversary card. I love the font for the sentiment!
