Simply Leaves in Crumb Cake

Simply Leaves Bundle + Textured Tree Ring Embossing Folder
+ Seasonal Cheer Mini Embossing Folders

Crumb Cake is this weeks Monochromatic Insta Hop color. I distressed the leaves a bit by running the edge of my scissors along the outer edge. I used a sponge dauber to add ink to the leaves, then I also used a sponge dauber to apply Crumb Cake ink on the embossed leaves.

I really love the Textured Tree Ring Embossed layer. I didn't need to add color to it in order for it to coordinate with the leaves. A sweet detail. All the product details are listed with live links at the end of this post.

Lovely Arrangements in Basic Gray

Lovely Arrangements Bundle + Fern & Flora Dies + Textured Tree Ring Embossing Folder

Last Friday's Monochromatic Insta Hop featured color was Basic Gray. I chose to explore the tones of Basic Gray. I used a very light touch with a blending brush when I applied Basic Gray to the card front layer prior to embossing. I use full strength ink on the stamped leaves. And finally I used a blender pen with the ink pad to color the flowers.

Lovely Arrangements Bundle + Fern & Flora Dies + Textured Tree Ring Embossing Folder

I am so in love with the Textured Tree Ring Embossing Folder! I can center it, or off center it. I can use the front, or the back for a different texture. This one is a real winner in my assortment of embossing folders.

Then to say that I love the Fern & Flora dies is an understatement! The fern look amazing with florals or just a sentiment. They are beautiful in any color. The fern add just the right amount of texture to a focal point.

This is Flowering Meadow Make n Take #3 that was created for my customers as a thank you gift. The Velvet Meadow DSP is in the May - August catalog.

Phrases & Frames Stamp Set + Flowering Meadow Dies + Stylish Shapes Dies
+ Velvet Meadow Specialty Paper

This lightly flocked paper is really a beautiful paper to create with. I used the detail dies to create a little floral touch next to the sentiment..... and found out a week later that the flowers are upside down!! LOL! Thankfully my Stampin' support team all told me that they liked the flowers how I assembled them!
