The first card uses the SU! 'Garden Lane' patterned paper, the 'Daisy Lane' stamp set and the 'Medium Daisy' punch. I used stitched detail dies to cut the rectangle and circle and I added a strip of Mint Macaron linen ribbon to the Mossy Meadow shape. I stamped the leafy image a few times on the circle using Mint Macaron ink and stamped the sentiment in Mossy Meadow ink. I stamped the daisies in Mossy Meadow ink on Mint Macaron CS, stacked two daisies together and popped the whole flower up. I stamped a daisy again onto a scrap of Mossy Meadow CS and cut out just the centre using a 3/8" circle punch.
Here's the inside and the envelope flap. The sentiment comes from a new set in the January - June 2020 Mini Catalogue called 'Timeless Tropical' - a gorgeous set that I'm looking forward to getting inky with!
The second card features goodies from the 'Honey Bee' bundle in the Mini Catalogue - plus patterned papers you can earn for free during the annual Sale-A-Bration promotion. I was smitten with the bees bundle as soon as I saw it! The papers have gold foil detailing on one side and then black and white prints on the other side, beautiful! I adhered the foiled honeycomb paper onto the front of a black A6 size card base, added a strip of Daffodil Delight stitched ribbon to a black stitched rectangle die cut and adhered that to the card front. I stamped the curved sentiment onto a piece of Whisper White CS, cut it out with a stitched circle die and then stamped and die cut the hive and bees. I coloured the bee stripes using a dark Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends marker. I adhered the hive and bees and then popped up the circle.
Here's the inside and envelope flap. I adhered a strip of gold foil patterned paper to a panel of white CS and then drew a line above it with a Basic Black marker. I stamped and die cut the bee for the envelope flap.
The last card features the 'Very Versailles' set, a lovely set with a vintage vibe. I debated about using a sponge dauber to edge the Very Vanilla panel to vintage it up more but I opted for the clean look instead! I stamped the text a few times on the Very Vanilla panel using stamped off once Crumb Cake ink and I stamped the leaves in Old Olive ink. I adhered that panel to a mat layer of Soft Suede CS, added a strip of Soft Suede CS and popped up the sentiment label. I added gold shimmer to the leaves using a Nuvo 'Midas Touch' Aqua Shimmer pen. I punched a large Soft Suede butterfly, stamped the text over the top in Soft Suede ink and then tapped the Aqua Shimmer pen against another pen in order to get a splatter of gold shimmer on the butterfly.
Here's a closer look at the gold shimmer.
Here's the inside and envelope. I layered the stamping again, stamping the text first followed by the leaves.
All three of my cards were a hit, yay! I love my group of ladies, we had a lovely afternoon, as always! Special thanks to Margaret A who brought along delicious home made cakes even though we had no birthdays to celebrate - an absolute treat!
