Rings of Love card for the Kylie Bertucci Demo Blog Hop

Posted on August 15, 2022August 6, 2022 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Kylie Bertucci Demonstrator Blog Hop where we are sharing thank you cards made for our customers. I have used the gorgeous Rings of Love Designer Series Paper.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the Rings of Love thank you card, you will need:

Thick Very Vanilla card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Very Vanilla card – 5⅜ by 3⅝”
Distressed Gold card – 3½” by 3½”
Rings of Love designer Series Paper (dsp)

Like many others I used to hate fussy cutting with a passion. I have however, discovered that the more you do it the easier it becomes and I spent a happy evening fussy cutting leaves and acorns from the sheets of the Rings of Love dsp.

I nested two of the Stylish Shapes Dies together and used them to die cut a circle frame from the Distressed Gold card.

The sentiment from the Cup of Tea Stamp set, was stamped onto the panel of Very Vanilla in Soft Suede ink and the distressed gold frame added on Mini Dimensionals. The overhanging edge was trimmed off.

The largest leafy sprig was inked up with Fresh Freesia ink, stamped off and stamped onto the panel. I repeated this step 3 or 4 times to provide a base.

Hello and welcome to the Ink. Stamp. Share. Blog Hop where we are showcasing something we have been working on recently. I saw a a Youtube video – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unb611k4Kec posted by fellow demo Julie Heitz and decided to have a try at making her quilt card.
