Sending Hugs with A Recipe For Subtle Beauty AYSI

Sending Hugs with A Recipe For Subtle Beauty AYSI

Today I’m sharing my card as Guest Designer for the new challenge over at As you See It  Challenge.  I used Blossoms instead of Boats, Bears, and Balloons for my B.

I am also entering my card with NBUS –  use Never Before Used Schtuff

I started with a card base of Basic White card stock with a panel of the same embossed using the Ferns 3D Embossing Folder.  I emboss a separate panel because I have ruined too many card fronts trying to emboss using the entire card. It is so much easier to emboss, then adhere to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I colored flowers from Perfectly Penciled DSP using the Stampin’ Blends in the Subtle Colors.  I found it interesting that I colored the inside flowers with the same Blends yet they are a different color.

After coloring the flowers, I fussy cut and popped over the Subtle 6″ x 6″ DSP panel adhered over the Ferns 3D Embossed panel.  This panel is matted on a piece of Balmy Blue from the same Subtle pack.  I colored several Rhinestone Basic Jewels using the Dark Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Marker and randomly popped them around the card front. A length of Crumb Cake twine from the Twine Essential Pack is adhered under the flowers on one end of the card.

I colored more flowers for the inside panel.  A panel of Basic White card stock gets a strip of the Subtle 6′ x 6″ DSP applied along the bottom, the flowers are adhered over the strip using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A Basic White medium envelope gets a panel of the Subtle 6″ x 6″ DSP adhered to the envelope flap.
