Ornamental Pot full of Grasses

I have been playing with the new Earthen Textures stamp set today, this was at the top of my wish list when the new catalogue launched. I do love a plant pot and these are gorgeous.

 

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the ornamental pot card, you will need:

Boho Blue card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Wild Wheat card – 5” by 3½”
Basic White card – 4¼” by 2½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

 

I stamped the grasses, randomly all over the front of the Boho Blue card front in Boho Blue ink, love a bit of tone on tone!

I stamped the spray of grasses onto the white label in Wild Wheat ink. The pot was stamped onto scrap Basic White card in Boho Blue ink and fussy cut using sharp Scissors – yes I know there are dies, and I do have them but I had the scissors out before I remembered! The pot was added over the grasses on Dimensionals.

The decorated label was laid onto the Wild Wheat label and I decided I didn’t like the wide border, so I got out my trimmer and trimmed off an ⅛” off all sides, much better. The two labels were then glued together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and added to the card front using the same glue.

I wasn’t sure what I wanted to back the panel with and found a Pretty Peacock scrap that I though might look nice just peeping out on each side………. Sadly, it didn’t. I ended up cutting the piece in half diagonally and adding the triangles with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive in the upper right and lower left corner. I had originally planned to trim off the pointy bits but decided I liked them.

Fresh As A Daisy DSP card for the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are sharing projects made using designer series paper (dsp). I love all the pretty dsp we have in the new catalogue and I love ways to use up scrap bits and pieces. I have used the gorgeous Fresh as a Daisy dsp to make my card today.

Colours in today’s project are:

 

To recreate the fresh as a daisy card, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Crushed Curry card – 4⅛” by 2⅛”
Fresh as a Daisy dsp – 4” by 2“

 

Using my Paper Trimmer, I cut the strip of dsp in half at 2” giving two 2” by 2” squares.

Again, using the trimmer, I cut each square in half on the diagonal.

I used Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to glue the dsp pieces to the layer of Crushed Curry card. The pieces were laid flush to each end but leaving a small gap top, bottom and in the middle so that the Crushed Curry showed through.

To recreate the pansy card, you will need;

The solid base image of each pansy was stamped in Lemon Lolly ink and I added the more detailed layer in Daffodil Delight ink. They were stamped on scrap Basic White card. I die cut the flowers using the pansy dies.

Using a Blending Brush, I added a little Cajun Craze ink to the smaller panel of Basic White card. I love the almost blush effect this ink gives to a background.

The flowers were added to the card base on either liquid glue or Dimensionals and the leaves were tucked underneath. The whole panel was added to the Copper Clay layer which was then mounted onto the Lemon Lolly card base.

The sentiment was stamped in Versamark ink, covered with White Embossing Powder and Heat set. I trimmed it down and added it to the card front and a trio of Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins completed the card.

I love these colours together, don’t you?
