Striped Leaves Card – Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are sharing a technique of our choice. Now, I am in the middle of moving house and most of my craft room is packed and ready to go so I have used things I have to hand. One of my favourite things is to use up scraps and I have used this idea with the Elegant Leaves dies to create a pretty birthday card.

Colours used to make this card are:

 

I created the striped leaves card using the following supplies:

Basic Black card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Basic White – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic Black – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Scenic Coast dsp – 6” by ⅜” x 6 or 7
Adhesive Sheet
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White

Using the Fern & Flora 3D Embossing Folder I embossed the Basic Black layer and adhered it to the 5¼” by 3½” piece of Basic White card. The whole panel was then glued to the Basic Black card front.
