Avant Garden With Copper Accent Cards
We'll be using the pretty flowers and leaves from the Avant Garden Sale-a-Bration stamp set to create a beautiful bouquet background card at this week's "Last Thursdays" card class.
Bouquet Basics—I started by stamping the Avant Garden flower image in Peekaboo Peach ink twice on a 3-3/4" x 5" piece of Whisper White, positioning them so that they would eventually peek out from under the sentiment layer. I stamped the flower twice in Watermelon Wonder, then stamped the flower center images in Tip Top Taupe ink. I finished by adding some Mint Macaron leaves around the flowers to fill it out like a bouquet.
Background Basics—I adhered a 5" x 1/4" strip of Copper Foil along the bottom of the stamped layer, then matted it onto a 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" piece of Watermelon Wonder card stock. It's mounted onto a Tip Top Taupe card base.
Sweet Sentiment—I stamped the Tin of Cards greeting in VersaMark onto Whisper White card stock then sprinkled on Copper Embossing Powder and heated it with the Heat Tool until glossy and smooth. I die cut it with the Stitched Shapes Framelits (do you have this must-have die set yet?), then popped up with Dimensionals over the foil strip. It's accented with some Pearl Jewels.
Bitty Butterfly—I finished the card by punching out a Bitty Butterfly shape from Copper Foil and popping it up with a Dimensional. A couple of Pearl Jewels for the body and the card is complete!
Two Cool—I love the look of Sweet Sugarplum with Copper accents, so I traded out the Watermelon Wonder ink for Sugarplum for my second card. I also changed the orientation and added a Mint Macaron mat layer instead.
The butterfly looked best on the circle this time, and I floated the Pearl Jewels around the bouquet like a hint of baby's breath! Loveliness!
