Week 35 – Old Olive
This handmade card features the Simply Beautiful bundle and the Banner Sayings bundle from the new Mini Catalogue and Online Exclusives.
On a Thick Basic White card base, I added a piece of Old Olive Two-tone cardstock embossed with the Gathering Leaves 3D Embossing folder. I used a sanding block to reveal the white core, on the diagonal, behind the flowers. It’s hard to see, but I splattered some watered down White Craft ink across the card front and set it aside to dry.
The imags are all stamped onto Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper in Versamark ink, Gold WOW Emboss powder added and melted with my heat tool. I also did the corner of the evenlope and the inside of the card. The sentiment [Banner Sayings] is also done the same way onto Old Olive cardstock and cut out using the Three Banner Punch.
The leaves are coloured with Old Olive and Mossy Meadow ink. The flowers I started with a diluted Timid Tiger ink, then Strawberry Slush ink followed by Poppy Parade ink. Using a fine paint brush, I added the flicks of Poppy Parade ink. Set aside to dry.
Once the images are dry, they are cut out with the coordinating dies and adhered to the card. The largest flower is added on Dimensionals. I took the Wink of Stella and splattered glitter across the entire card for beautiful shine.
Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next week for Peach Pie inspiration.
