Harvest Meadow Thinking of You

 Greetings!

A message that can be sent to anyone at any time is a simple "I'm Thinking of You".  It is guaranteed to put a smile on the face of the recipient and what a wonderful gift to give someone!

The Beautiful Harvest Meadow suite collection has gorgeous stamps, fabulous dies to coordinate and compliment the stamps, and beautiful paper to give you all kinds of color inspiration.  These papers range from neutrals to gorgeous bright corals and peaceful blues.  They are so fun!

The beautiful geometric paper provides the perfect background to show off the die cut silhouettes for this card.  The lovely Brushed Metallic Adhesive-backed Dots are so versatile and one begged to be added to this card to punctuate the message!


The perfect message to make someone's day!

Aren't the plant dies awesome!  Such a nice size to them so they easily create your focal point.  Cutting them out of a coordinating print from the Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper gives it lovely interest, especially when backed with a solid cardstock twig.  The creativity is truly endless with this suite of products.  The message is brought in from the Art Gallery stamp set and is the perfect sized font to fit inside the die that is included in the Harvest Meadow Bundle.

Here's How It's Made:
Adhere geometric print paper to card base.
Die cut flower silhouette from Calypso Coral print paper.  Die cut twig from Soft Succulent cardstock.  Die cut label from Crumb Cake print paper.
Ink splotch stamp with Soft Succulent, stamp off twice, and then stamp onto Crumb Cake label piece, centering splotch in label. Adhere to card base.  
Stamping off is a technique in which you stamp onto grid paper once or twice before stamping onto cardstock.  This gives a softer color to your image.
Grid Paper protects your work surface and makes alignment of layers a breeze with the built in grid and ruler edges.
Adhere die cut twig and flower to card front with Multipurpose liquid glue.  
Multipurpose liquid glue dries tacky so use sparingly along edges.  When using on thin pieces it's best to dab small dots of glue along the back of piece, place onto card, and press.  
Ink "I'm thinking of you" with Soft Succulent and stamp onto Basic White cardstock.  Align the label die near one edge of the stamped sentiment (other edge of die will be longer than cardstock piece) and run through Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine.  Align other end of sentiment piece into label die and run through again so your label is the correct length for your sentiment.
Adhere sentiment with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.
Adhere Brushed Metallic Adhesive-backed Dot at end of sentiment.
Here's what the inside looks like:

Cut Basic White cardstock 4" x 5" and adhere to inside of card.
Cut a 1-1/4" x 4" piece of Calypso Coral print, adhere near bottom of Basic White.  Cut a 1" x 4" piece of Soft Succulent script print, adhere, centering on Calypso Coral strip.
