Sharing a little love with my wee note I made quickly.
I have created a tutorial for you so you can follow along and create your own. My goal is to try and make more tutorials for you. I wanted to stamp, ink and play with Fallen Blossom. Check out how I made this card.
How about starting with Correspondence paper and yes the Envelop die. Before cutting the Handwritten Love sentiment I sanded the core paper to achieve that distress look. I love watercolor paper cards especially stamping my Fallen Blossom stamp.
I stamped the small blossoms then used distress markers bundled sage, spun sugar and worn lipstick. Then they were trimmed.
I inked the edges of all 3 blossoms with worn lipstick, then set aside. I then used my markers to ink up the blossom stamp, click
HERE to see. A little more worn lipstick around the cards edges then some glue on the sentiment.
Before attaching the sentiment I wanted to add a subtle layer with the spun sugar and hearts stencil. This is really quick and a pretty layer.
Time for those wee blossoms that were set aside. I trimmed and popped the blossoms up with some
3D Foam squares. I these popped up!
I inked the envelope with more distress ink worn lipstick then stamped the front of it with the sentiment from
Fallen Blossom, "Remember to make memories..." I love clear rock candy stickles added to the blossoms.
There you have it!
This card and envelope takes about 20 minutes. It's a quick stamp, ink and a couple of cuts.
The extra blossom stamps add a perfect layer for dimension.
The heart stencil is a pretty subtle layer.
I love the sentiment on the outside of the envelope die cut. Usually it's inside the card.
How about a little added touch of the mini heart die stamped with the blossom stamp and inked.
What a fun quick card.
I hope you like my quick little card and coordinating envelope. I took me longer to write this post then to make it. I made this card for my honey. He's been working really hard lately and supporting me with
CHA and launching my new stamp line. So, I kinda like him.
Lets play...
Great minds.... I had the exact same idea in my head for those blossoms...layering them with fussy cut individual blossoms... Needles to say that I looooove this card! Amazing, simply amazing. You are such an inspiration!
ReplyDeleteTotally gorgeous and beautiful. Hope we get some stamps at an American company, shipping is such a bear and unfair. If you know of any let me know. 😉
