Inspiring Imperfections – Hello

Wow!  It’s already September…welcome back.

Today I am playing with CAS on Friday (#316) to use Vellum and the CAS Colours & Sketches (#567) Palette influenced by the Paper Players (#753) Tic Tac Toe Board to include Flowers and Word Dies choosing both clean and simple and vellum as my FREE option(s).

Here is the result:

Steps:

• Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Basic White cardstock.
• Background Panel: (4” x 5¼”) Pool Party cardstock.
• Frame: (2¾” x 4½”) Basic White cardstock and Vellum.
  • Using the (2½” x 3⅞”) Frame die from the Sentimental Framing Dies set, the two pieces were die-cut.
  • The Vellum Frame was adhered to the Basic White Frame.
• Focal Image – Flower
  • On the (1¼” x 2¾”) Vellum Inset piece created via the Frame die-cut, the Flower image from the Inspiring Imperfections stamp set was stamped with Versamark ink and heat-set with Pewter Embossing Powder (still in my stash).
  • The back side of the vellum stamped image was colored with Stampin’ Blends Markers.  Colors chosen: Bloom – Dark Flirty Flamingo, Leaves – Dark Lost Lagoon; and Background – Light Pool Party.
  • The Vellum Image was adhered to the Basic White Inset piece.
• Sentiment: (3” x 1½”) Lost lagoon cardstock.
  • Using the word Hello die from the Circle of Seasons Dies set, a Paper Pumpkin Add-On product, the greeting was die-cut.

All elements were adhered to the card base with the Floral inset popped up with Dimensionals.

A pretty floral greeting card that is clean and simple, my favorite style to make, for you today.

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