Flower and Field Gorgeous Posies Celebrating Your Day - Crafty Collaborators Spring Blog Hop

Hi Everyone,

Today I am hopping with the Crafty Collaborators Group and the theme is 'Spring', oh that does seem a long way off at the moment. I have used the fabulous Flower and Field FREE designer series paper (free with a qualifying purchase during Sale-a-Bration) and my favourite stamp set - Gorgeous Posies. The designer series paper is full of bright and lovely floral images that just make you think of Spring. Let me show you how I made it.

Materials

1 piece of just jade card stock 5 7/8" x 8 1/4"

1 piece of basic white card 3 7/8" x 5 5/8" and a scrap for the sentiment

1 piece of basic black 4" x 5 3/4" and a scrap for the sentiment mat

Memento Black ink

Bumblebee ink

Gorgeous Posies stamp set

1 piece of Flower and Field designer series paper 3 7/8" x 5 5/8"

Trimmer

Simply Scored

Bone folder

Multipurpose adhesive

Dimensionals

Stampin Cut and Emboss machine

Stitched So Sweetly dies

Instructions

Score the just jade card on the long side at 4 1/8" and fold and burnish to make a landscape card.

Add the basic black mat layer and then the dsp layer to the card front leaving an equal border around each of them.

Die cut a basic white rectangle and a larger basic black (approx 3" and 3 1/2") so they will layer up together with a nice border around your stamping.

Stamp a flower to the left of the white mat with the bumblebee ink (full strength) and then stamp the image again above and to the side of it to leave fainter images. Stamp the dotty image in black, full strength on the main flower and then stamped off on the other two. Stamp the sentiment at the top right of the rectangle. Layer the two rectangles together and then add to the card front at an angle using dimensionals.

Stamp a flower on the remaining piece of basic white and then adhere to the inside of the card.

I hope that you like my card and will give it a try. Please hop over and see what my colleagues have made today, you are sure to be inspired by these very talented crafters.
