Heartfelt Wonderful World Flowers with Fabulous Frames

 Greetings!

I've been having loads of fun playing with the Wonderful World Designer Series Papers that are part of the Wonderful World bundle.  Today, I finally grabbed the stamp set that is bundled with these papers, and now I wonder why I waited so long!  It's a gorgeous stamp set comprised of three different stamps of large flowers on stems with leaves so they are definitely the focal point of the card.  I wanted to do a frame and started with the large frame that is part of the Fabulous Frames dies.  This frame is 5 x 3-3/4 and has embossed details to give a realistic wooden frame look to it.  After playing around with how I wanted the frame to look with the flowers, I grabbed the Scalloped Contours dies and layered it with the other frame.  I love all the detail these two combined frames give to the card front.  A simple "heartfelt" from the Lovely You stamp set adds just the right touch to this simple yet lovely card.


Isn't it lovely!  I love the DistINKtive™ stamps because they provide so much depth and dimension to the image simply by how the stamp is created.  I stamped it on Shimmery White cardstock to provide the entire layer with a little shimmer and then painted on the flower with the Wink of Stella® Clear Glitter Brush to give it even more shimmer.  The two shades of gray provide a wonderful base without competing with the lovely flowers.  This card goes together very quickly and still wows with all the beautiful details!

Here's How It's Made:

Ink flowers on stamp by pressing Orchid Oasis ink pad onto flowers only, rubbing off any ink that gets onto stems.  Ink stems with Old Olive Stampin' Write Marker.  Give a couple of quick breaths onto stamp to make sure ink is evenly moist, then stamp onto Shimmer White cardstock.  Die cut with Scalloped Contour die, making sure to leave room at bottom for sentiment to fit beneath flower stems.  Set aside for ink to dry completely before further coloring is done.

Die cut Basic Gray cardstock with large detailed Fabulous Frames die.  Adhere to Smoky Slate card base front.

Lightly color in flowers with Wink of Stella Glitter Brush. My brush puddled a bit in the center of the flower but that's okay :).




Ink "heartfelt" stamp with Starry Sky and stamp near lower left of frame, inside dotted lines.  Adhere to card base with Stampin' Dimensionals, centering inside Basic Gray die cut frame.

Embellish with shades of Orchid Oasis and Starry Sky Matte Decorative Dots.

Here's what the inside looks like:


I chose a message from the Nature's Harvest stamp set and stamped it with Starry Sky ink.
