Spellbinders Thank You Botanical

Hello Friends, and thanks for joining me! Today’s project is featuring the Modern Botanicals from Spellbinders and Dina Wakely. This set includes several elements, but I opted to just use the leaf for my project. Let’s go ahead and go through the details.

NOTE: all supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by inking up the leaf on the BetterPress system using Celery and Seafoam inks. I did this twice and then used the coordinating die to trim those out. While I was inking, I went ahead and inked up the La Dolce Vita Sentiments using VersaFine Onyx Black ink. I used clear embossing powder to heat set it. I wasn’t sure that this technique would work, but I went with it anyway. I used the coordinating die to trim that out as well. Before moving on, I added some color to the leaves using Copic Markers BG11 and BG32.

I then did some die cutting using the Vivid Blooms set from Neenah 110lb cardstock, as well as Waterfall, Teal Topaz, Beeswax and black. I did some light ink blending on the flowers before assembling them using the same Seafoam ink along with PFS Misty Coast ink. Before the assembly of the card, I cut a panel using the Nested Postage Labels & Tag and black splattered that.

The panel was secured to the card base, the leaves were glued in place, as was the smaller flowers, while the larger flower and the sentiment were adhered using foam tape. A few clear drops were added to finish up.

That does it for this project! I hope you enjoyed it, and I appreciate you stopping by. Have a wonderful day, and stay awesome, friend!

Sometimes I like to create backgrounds from a single die, and today’s post did just that! I paired the @tim_holtz Bloom Colorize with a sentiment from the @simonsaysstamp Paper Cut Word Mix set.

Happiest Friday to you! I hope everyone has had a great week! Today’s project is featuring the Sunflower Blooms from @simonsaysstamp latest release, Every Happiness.

Happiest Friday, Lovelies! I hope you’re not sick of the florals, because I just can’t help myself! This one is using the Bellflower Blossoms from @simonsaysstamp latest release, Every Happiness. I felt like this stencil needed some grounding, so I opted to loosely scribble around the images. The other products used are oldies but goodies!

Sending you a Bedazzled Hello this morning! This project is using the new Bedazzled Embossing Folder and the Paper Cut Word Mix set from @simonsaysstamp Every Happiness release. I pulled my color inspiration from The Color Cubes, because I was feeling a little stuck in my color rut, and I quite like how this one came out! You can find more deets for this project, as well as others, over on my blog at redsas.co.

Yesterday on the @simonsaysstamp YouTube live with Heidi, she commented on how many gorgeous florals are in the new Every Happiness release, and I couldn’t agree more! So today, I’m continuing on with the florals using the Tissue Petal Stems! I actually borrowed this set from my friend, @teacher11494 who also creates gorgeous floral cards, and decided that I needed to purchase it for myself! Because, who doesn’t need another floral added to their stash, am I right?! There’s a blog post over at redsas.co with all of the info, if you happened to be interested. I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday!

Simon Says Stamp Relax Snake Plant

Hello Crafty Friends and welcome back! Today’s project is featuring the new Snake Plant Stencil and Die from Simon’s latest release, Moments In Time. Let’s jump right into it.

NOTE: all supplies are linked in the thumbnails at the end of this blog post.

I began this project by gathering a panel of Neenah 110lb cardstock, my inks and a Craft Tacky Mat. This stencil set has five stencils, so the inks that I used were Celery, Limelicious, Fairway, Pearfection and Emerald.

Once the ink blending was complete, I used the coordinating die to cut out the leaves. I also cut the leaves from Fern and black cardstock and adhered all of those together, offsetting them slightly. This was then adhered to a Forest panel that I had previously gold splattered.

The sentiment, which is included with the die set, was cut once from gold cardstock and once from black cardstock, while the shadow portion was cut twice from the same Forest cardstock. This was then glued directly atop the leaves to finish up.

That does it for this one! The snake plant always reminds me of my Mom, as she always had one on the front porch. I would love to have one, but the google machine says that they are toxic to cats, and I’m a cat person. Oh well. Thanks again for joining me, and I hope you have a wonderful day!
