Meadow Thinking of You
Today’s card uses the Quiet Meadow Bundle which I featured this week in my Facebook Video. This is a lovely bundle, which gives you the opportunity to get really creative. I embossed Basic White card using the Brick & Mortar 3D Embossing Folder and attached it to scored and folded Just Jade card. I cut Basic White card using two different floral dies from the Meadow Dies, two of one and just one of the other. I also cut two leaf dies from Basic White card using the same Dies.
I used a sponge daubers to add Bumblebee ink to the flowers and Just Jade ink to the stems and leaves. It’s surprising just how much colour you get when you do this. I attached the leaf die cuts to the card front and then the single flower die with the two remaining flower dies on top, trimming away any of the stems where they extended beyond the embossed layer.
I stamped the greeting from the Quiet Meadow stamp set onto Basic White card and cut it out using the label die from the Meadow Dies. I attached the greeting to the card front using dimensionals. To decorate the inside of the card, I used the negative space created when cutting the die cuts for the front of the card. I placed the template onto the left hand side of Basic White card and using it as a stencil I added Bumblebee ink to the flowers and Just Jade ink to the leaves and stem using sponge daubers. I like the effect you get when doing this and this particular die works perfectly for this technique.
I love how pretty this turned out, don’t you? I think you are going to see the Quiet Meadow bundle used quite extensively. I’d love to know what you think.
Bye for now,
