Start with a Barely Blush standard card base, measuring 21cm x 14.5cm, scored and folded at 10.5cm.
Blot Peaceful Pine and Hydrangea Hue ink on to stamp blocks (or ANY glass surface) and spritz with water, ink smoosh onto Thick Basic White cardstock or Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper and leave to dry (creating a waterclour background for some of the die cut leaves and the small blossoms).
Trim pieces from the 2026-2028 In Colo Painted Patterns Designer Series Paper to measure:
2 X 3.5cm X 5cm
2 X 3.5cm X 7cm
(I chose the stripe and dot patterns using the Peaceful Pine, Crisp Cantaloupe, Golden Glow and Hydrangea Hue papers)
Die cut the leaves from the Lovely Arrangement Dies (from the Lovely Arrangements Bundle) out of the Peaceful Pine waterclour background and die cut the tiny blossoms from the Greenery Lane Dies (from the Greenery Lane Bundle) out of the Hydrangea Hue watercolour background.
Stamp the floral images from the Lovely Arrangement Stamp Set with Hydrangea Hue ink onto Basic White cardstock and die cuts with the coordinating dies.
Die cut the leaves from the Nature's Symphony Dies out of Peaceful Pines cardstock.
Layer the pattern pieces onto the card front, leaving space for the sentiment.
Stamp a sentiment to the right or the pattern pieces with Hydrangea Hue ink. My sentiment is from my retired stash.
Continue to layer the rest of the pieces (I love using different types of adhesive to create different types dimensions on my card front eg Glue Dots, Dimansionals and Liquid Glue).
Add your favourite embellishments to the centre of the blossoms (I used Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels)
