Posted on March 9, 2024March 5, 2024 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop where we are sharing projects inspired by the theme of Flora or Fauna. I have gone with flora and used the stunning Enduring Beauty Bundle to make my card.

Colours in this card are:

To recreate the embossed enduring beauty card, you will need:

Soft Sea Foam card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 4⅞” by 3½”
One Horse Open Sleigh dsp – 5¼” by 4”
Basic White card – 5” by 4”
Soft Sea Foam card – 2¼” by ½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”

Using the Deckled Rectangles, I die cut a rectangle from the piece of One Horse Open Sleigh dsp. This was then glued to the 5” by 4” piece of Basic White card. I wrapped a piece of Iridescent Ribbon around the panel and adhered the piece to the Soft Sea Foam card base.

The 2nd mask was positioned, exposing the leaves. Using Blending Brushes I lightly inked with Old Olive. I decided not to add the detailed image as the black embossing gives a lot of dimension already.

I die cut the floral image using the Enduring Beauty Dies and mounted the die cut piece on Dimensionals to the card front.
