Wildflower Path New Horizons simple card

Greetings!

It's hard to appreciate how gorgeous all the papers are in the New Horizons 6 x 6 Designer Series Papers until you have them in your hands and can look at each one.  They are amazing!  After making some cards this past weekend I had a few left over pieces which were too gorgeous to discard.  The Wildflower Path stamp set has a wonderful quote stamp included and I thought, oh!, this will be perfect with the print I have.  I just had to find a die to frame the quote in and found that with the soon to be retired Tasteful Labels dies.  The marriage of these three elements produces a very simple yet beautiful card.


Isn't it lovely!  This watercolor feels like a beautiful landscape at dusk with all these rosy hues.  The print had a piece cut out which wasn't quite large enough for the opening I needed, so Tasteful Labels dies to the rescue! This die is the perfect size and shape for this message.  

Embossing the message in silver on black allows the lovely watercolor scene to be the star of the show.

Note:  We are in the final weeks for the 2021-2022 annual catalog, so make sure you check out the Last Chance list.  These are the items soon to be retiring and many are on sale for 20, 40 and even 50% off.  The Tasteful Labels dies used for this card are on this list, so get them while you can.
