Hi Stampers!
Time for the new DD98 Dynamic Duos “Subtly Yours” and I decided to turn to My Digital Studio
(MDS) along with traditional card making techniques to create my Easter card for this
project :-)
I hope you will have the time to visit and check out the rest
of the fantastic Design Team projects as well as create your own and share with
us!!
Using MDS, open a blank
8.5x11 document and insert the floral cross from Crosses of Hope and enlarge a
bit. Also insert the “Easter” sentiment
from Well Scripted, the “Happy” sentiment from Fabulous Phrases (reducing the
size of the word Happy and inserting above Easter) and print out onto Whisper
White cardstock.
Using Stampin’ Write
markers in So Saffron, Wisteria Wonder and Sahara Sand to color the cross image
and carefully cut out.
Punch out the sentiment
using the 1 ¾” Circle Punch and mount onto a piece of Basic Black cardstock
(also punched with the 1 ¾” Circle Punch).
Use the Big Shot™ with the
retired Elegant Bouquet Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder to emboss a
piece of So Saffron cardstock and the retired Lacy Brocade Textured
Impressions™ Embossing Folder to emboss a strip of Wisteria Wonder Designer
Series Paper (DSP).
Mount the Wisteria Wonder
strip to a piece of Basic Black cardstock and lightly sand with the Sanding
Block to expose the white core. Adhere
the sentiment behind the layer and mount onto the So Saffron embossed
background.
Adhere the entire panel to
the Basic Black card base and add the cross using Stampin’ Dimensionals®.
Create the rolled flowers
using Whisper White, Wisteria Wonder and So Saffron cardstock and the 1 3/4”
and 1 ¼” Scallop Circle Punches (punch out the scallops, hand “scrunch” the
cardstock to loosen the fibers in the paper, cut a wavy spiral from the outside
toward the center and roll up).
Add the flowers with the
Basic Black leaves (from the Bird Builder Punch) and Pearls to finish off the
card.
