Blue Pots

Here is a sweet card featuring a row of blue pots made using the Earthen Textures Stamp set and co-ordinating Dies.

Colours used when making this card are:

 

To recreate the Blue Pots card, you will need:

Azure Afternoon card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Copper Clay card- 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” x 2
Scrap Basic White, Azure Afternoon & Copper Clay

 

From a scrap piece of Basic White card, I die cut a large Deckled Rectangle. I placed the negative piece of the panel over one of the 5½” by 3¾” panels of Basic White card. I held it in place with washi tape.

Using a Blending Brush, I brushed Balmy Blue ink into the negative space. Interestingly Balmy Blue turns out to have grey over tones!

Using Starry Sky ink, I stamped the sentiment onto the inked panel which was then glued to the Copper Clay layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. This piece was then added with the same glue to the Azure Afternoon card base.

I die cut 3 pots, using the Earthen Textures Dies, from scrap Azure Afternoon card. I die cut the pot top and the geometric strip from scraps of both Basic White and Copper Clay card as I wasn’t sure which colour I wanted to use.

The twiggy branch was stamped on a large and small pot in Starry Sky ink and a white top added to the smaller pot. I trimmed off about ¼” from the top of the larger pot. I added the white geometric strip to the remaining large pot and trimmed off the excess.

After laying out the pots to get an idea of placement I added the Copper Clay geometric strip to the card front and used liquid glue to add the larger pots at either side of the inked shape. The Smaller pot was then added on Dimensionals.

 

A trio of Pastel Adhesive-backed Sequins completed the card. I hope you like it.
