Cane Weave embedded Favored Flowers Thinking of You

Greetings!

Just a day left of the Sale-a-bration period, so I had to post one more card using the gorgeous Favored Flowers Designer Series Papers (DSP) which coordinate with the Fragrant Flowers bundle.

These papers are stunning with their rich florals on a black background.  Two of the sheets are sized to use with the dies from the Fragrant Flowers bundle, making it so easy to create a lovely card quickly and easily.  For this card, I adhered the large flower cluster to the Basic Black panel prior to embossing, using the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder.  This way it looks like the die cut piece is part of the embossed layer, with the die cut small flower being added afterwards.  It's a really easy and stunning technique.


The large sentiments that are included with the Fragrant Flowers stamp set seemed a bit too large for this card, so I opted to use the "Thinking of You" from the Beauty of Friendship stamp set, and jazzing up the label with the banner die from the Stylish Shapes dies, giving it the pierced edge.  It's finished off with a few sparkly Iridescent Rhinestones

Favored Flowers Thanks

 Greetings!

We are in the last few days of Sale-a-bration for this year, so I had to sneak in another card featuring one of the Designer Series Papers (DSP) that you can get FREE with a $50 purchase.  It took me awhile to warm up to the Favored Flowers DSP but I finally talked myself into it, and the coordinating Fragrant Flowers bundle, and I'm sorry I waited so long!  It's really an awesome pairing!

It's so wonderful when beautiful papers are the main feature of a card, and all it needs is a little coordinating cardstock, a sentiment, an embellishment or two and it's finished.  That's exactly how this card turned out, and I have to say, I think it's quite gorgeous!


Isn't that print beautiful!  Notice the subtle print on the "Thanks" label.  It is another one of the prints that is part of this beautiful Favored Flowers DSP, so you get the vibrant colors with the black background, and then on the flip sides are lovely geometric prints.  It's really a beautiful pack of papers, and so fun with the deep rich tones they have.  

To help the "Thanks" stand out a bit, I simply slipped a strip of Evening Evergreen cardstock under the label, and then wrapped it with some Pumpkin Pie twine.  Lastly, notice how lovely the scattered Copper Brushed Metallic Dots look as an accent for these flowers.  Love it!

Gather Your Supplies:
  • Fragrant Flowers Bundle (Save 10% when you purchase stamp set & die with bundle item#)
  • Petal Pink cardstock 
    • card base 4-1/4 x 11 scored & folded at 5-1/2    OR    5-1/2 x 8-1/2 scored & folded at 4-1/4
  • Basic Black cardstock
    • 5--3/8 x 4-1/8 panel
  • Evening Evergreen cardstock
    • 4 x 1
  • Favored Flowers Designer Series Paper (FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-bration)
    • 4 x 5-1/4 scattered Calypso Coral flowers on black print
    • 3-1/2 x 1 petal pink/white geometric print 
  • Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad
  • Pumpkin Pie Twine - 24"
  • Copper Brushed Metallic adhesive-backed dots
=============================================================
Product List
=============================================================
Here's How It's Made:
Adhere DSP layer to Basic Black panel. Adhere Evening Evergreen cardstock strip to DSP 1-1/4" up from bottom edge.  Wrap Pumpkin Pie twine around assembled layers 3 times, then tie a bow.  Position bow near left edge. Adhere to Petal Pink card front.




Ink "Thanks" with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, stamp onto DSP print strip, die cut.  Adhere on top of Evening Evergreen strip using Stampin' Dimensionals.

Embellish with large and small Copper Brushed Metallic dots.
