Scrap Basic White card

 

Using the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, I embossed one of the Basic White panels with the Bark Embossing Folder. The embossed layer was glued to the Early Espresso panel and a length of Flirty Flamingo Ribbon wrapped around the panel and secured on the back with Sellotape. The whole piece was then added to the Flirty Flamingo card front.

The sentiment was stamped in Versamark ink onto the strip of Early Espresso card, covered it in White Embossing Powder and heat set it with my Heat Tool. I trimmed it down and added it to the card front.

Oh my goodness, I am loving the Oceanfront and On the Horizon stamp sets and have created a distant trees card using them both and the Horizon Dies for the Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the distant trees card, you will need:

Pear Pizzazz card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Garden Green card – 5” by 3¼”
Basic White card – 4¾” by 3
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

 

I started by placing a ¾” punched circle near the top of the smaller panel of Basic White card and stamped over it using Balmy Blue ink to create the sky. I removed the mask and added So Saffron ink to the sun with a Dauber.

The fence was die cut using the Horizon Dies and the ‘woodgrain’ image stamped over the pieces to add texture. The fence was then added to the stamped panel on Dimensionals.

I stamped the grasses in Garden Green ink and die cut them. I used a Dauber to add Garden Green ink over the die cut. I cut it apart and added it to the base of the fence.

Such a pretty card. I hope you like it.
