Supplies:
- Dies: Flowers of Home
- Stamp Sets: Quiet Meadow, One Happy Family
- Cardstock: Basic White Thick (card base) Basic White, Daffodil Delight, Fluid 100 Watercolour Paper
- Paper: 2022-2024 In-Colour 6"x 6"Designer Series Paper
- Inks: Highland Heather, Granny Apple Green, VersaMark
- Accessories: Basic Embossing Powders (white)
- Embellishments: Glossy Dots Assortment
- Tools: Heat Tool, Blending Brushes, Paper Trimmer, Mini Cut & Emboss Machine,
- Adhesives: Tombow Liquid Glue, Dimensionals, Glue Dots.
- Watercolour a sheet each (if you're frugal, you'll only need half a sheet) using Granny Apply Green ink and Highland Heather ink and die cut the pieces using the green for foliage and the mauve for flowers.
- On a piece of Basic White cardstock that is 1/2" (approx 1cm) smaller on two sides than the card front, stamp the distressed font image from Quiet Meadow across the lower section and heat emboss in white. Very gently blend Granny Apple Green ink over the top extending past the image top and bottom. Take a tissue or clean, soft cloth and gently rub over the top to remove the ink on the embossing.
- Trim a piece of Tahitian Tide paper to measure slightly larger that this piece of Basic White cardstock and also a piece of Daffodil Delight cardstock so that it's slighter larger again but still smaller than the card front. Glue all three together, off-setting to create peek-a-boo colour under each layer. Glue this to the card front.
- Create a wreath with the die-cut foliage and add the flowers using Glue Dots to secure. TIP: Trace around a circular shape to help you with placement.
- Stamp a greeting on a strip of Basic White cardstock and attached to the card front with Dimensionals.
- Trim a second piece of Basic White cardstock smaller than the card front. Stamp the same distressed type image in the bottom right corner and heat emboss in white. Gently blend Granny Apply Green ink over the top and remove the excess ink with a tissue or soft clean cloth.
- Glue a strip of Daffodil Delight cardstock and Tahitian Tide paper to the bottom edge and trim the top edge to fit inside the card.
- Secure this to the inside of the card using Tombow Liquid Glue.
- To finish the card, add a few of the blue Glossy Dots to the front to pull the colour in from the edges.
