Project Inspiration: Springtime Blessings Card by Brenda Noelke

Melissa’s Fab Friday Feature

March 5, 2021      Papertrey Ink      2 Comments

Hello, Everyone! Welcome to Melissa’s Fab Friday Feature

_____________________________________________________________________________________________

My card today uses colored pencils and a white marker to add just a little detail to the flowers from the Pop-Up Florals stamp set.

STEP 1: Stamp and die cut flowers and leaves from the Pop-Up Florals stamp set.  Add colored pencil in a slightly darker color to center of flowers.  Add white dots to the center of each flower using a white pen.

STEP 2: Cut a block of Bitty Big Harvest Gold paper to fit center of card.  Cut a block of vellum slightly smaller than yellow paper and adhere to center of yellow paper.

STEP 3: Add circle cut from Sweet Blush cardstock to center of card.

STEP 4: Die cut a smaller white circle and stamp sentiment using Raspberry Fizz ink and leaves using Simply Chartreuse ink.  Adhere to center of pink circle

STEP 5: Create card base.  Add patterned paper to center of card, add ribbon across center if desired.  Add yellow and vellum block to the center of the card.  Add stamped flowers to frame in sentiment and embellish with gems.

 

 

 

 

STAMPS:  Pop-Up Florals and Framed in Florals
INK:  Bright Buttercup, Summer Sunrise, Olive Twist, Limeade Ice, Simply Chartreuse, Lovely Lady, Autumn Rose, Hibiscus Burst, Raspberry Fizz
PAPER:  Harvest Gold, Sweet Blush, Stamper’s Select White, Sheer Basics Vellum, Bitty Big Harvest Gold
