Nature's Walk Birthday Card

Nature's Walk Collection + Gallery Bloom Dies - Words of Beauty Bundle

I created this card to participate in a team sketch challenge, and knew immediately that I wanted to use the Nature's Walk Collection. Besides the gorgeous DSP, there is also the Natural Hues 12" x 12" Textured Specialty Paper. I used that for the golden set of leaves.

I really wanted a wood grain frame, so I used the Woodgrain Wonders DSP #167428, that will be available to customers starting March 3. I like the extra touch of the Faux Bronze Pentagons that were added to the corners of the frame.

Lovely Arrangments in Early Espresso

Lovely Arrangements Bundle + Lasting Linen Stamp

This weeks Crafty Collaborations Monochromatic Insta Hop color is Early Espresso. It was fun creating this card using the Lovely Arrangements Bundle and Lasting Linen Stamp (first time using both). I hesitated ordering the Lasting Linen stamp and now I'm kicking myself for not ordering earlier. I really love how it stamps and the texture it give to a peice of paper.

Lovely Arrangements Bundle + Lasting Linen Stamp Detail View

I gave the flowers depth by highlighting them with Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends. I love how crisp these flowers stamp using the photopolymer stamps. The leaves were detail die cut directly from Early Espresso cardstock. There is an option to stamp and die cut leaves, I kinda wish I would have tried that. The Sentiment is heat embossed.
