Wild Ferns – Thinking of You

Welcome back!  Friday – Yikes!  How did that happen?  Hoping you have some wonderful plans for your weekend.

It was a busy day and I am just getting a chance to play.  Loving the color combo suggested by the Facebook Colour INKspirations (#172) this round.

I opted to use the Stampin’ Up! Sketch Template #10 found in the Annual Catalog on page 22 in the Landscape position.

I am sharing this card with: Can You Handle The Pressure (#62) and Shopping Our Stash (#529).

Here is the result:

Steps:

• Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Garden Green cardstock.
• Background Panel: (5¼” x 4”) Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper dry-embossed with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder.
• Flagged Banner: (1¾” x 4”) Pebbled Path cardstock hand-notched and cut with Paper Snips.
• Focal Panel: (2⅛” x 3⅛”) Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper
  • Using a Blending Brush, Peach Pie ink was added to the Panel.
  • The Linen image from the Wild Ferns stamp set was stamped with 2^nd Generation (stamped off once) Peach Pie ink to give a texture similar to that in the inspiration photo.
  • Two of the Fern images from the same stamp set were stamped with Garden Green ink.
  • Garden Green coloring was added with a Blender Pen picking up ink from the Ink Pad Lid.
  • The sentiment, Thinking of You, from the Sketched Butterflies stamp set was stamped with Pebbled Path ink.

All elements were adhered to the card base to resemble the sketch and a loop of Very Vanilla Baker’s Twine was added under the popped-up Focal Panel.

I like making, Thinking of You cards, just because they are handy to have about.

Thanks for spending some of your time with me today.   Cheers,  Jolanda!
