Ornate Garden Projects
I was so blessed last week to receive these two beautiful Ornate Garden Suite cards from two different fabulous women. One was my downline, Jane Mason, and the other was Helen Jimenez, my card buddy. I absolutely love them both!
Jane Mason
My amazing downline and friend, Jane Mason sent me this card as a small thank you. This card is so much more beautiful in person, my photo does not do this card justice.
The card base is made using an 8-1/2″ X 5-1/2″ piece of Very Vanilla cardstock, scored at 4-1/4″ Jane used a piece of BumbleBee DSP from the In-Color 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, cut at 4″ x 5-1/4″, then embossed using the coordinating Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder.
The next layer using the Ornate Layers Dies on a 3-1/4″ x 4-3/4″ piece of Very Vanilla cardstock. Jane stamped the beautiful floral image from the Ornate Style Stamp Set and colored in using the Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, and Calypso Coral Stampin’ Blends.
Jane used the Rectangle Stitched Dies to cut the 2-5/8″ x 4″ Early Espresso layer. Lastly, she sprinkled some of the beautiful Gilded Gems to complete the look.
Jane also stamped the “Thank You” sentiment inside of the card using Early Espresso Classic ink, as well as a stamped off BumbleBee Classic ink floral image in the center of the thank you.
Helen Jimenez
I participate in a group sending out “Card Pals”. We send an assigned pal a handmade card each month. This month Helen Jimenez sent me this gorgeoso Magenta Madness card.
Helen started with an 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Magenta Madness cardstock, scored at 4-1/4″ as her card base. A 4-1/8″ x 5-3/4″ inch piece of Whisper White cardstock, which was embossed using the Subtles Embossing Folder was added as a second layer. the next layer using the Ornate Layers Dies on a 3-1/4″ x 4-3/4″ piece of Magenta Madness cardstock. Helen added a 2-1/4″ x 3-4/8″ piece of Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper to the center panel.
Using the Stitched Be Mine Dies, the heart-shaped dies were used to cut out the Magenta Madness cardstock ornate heart and Whisper White cardstock for the inside. The heart was added using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
A little something on the inside
If you follow me, you know I love to include a little something on the inside, and Helen did the same thing. Love how she used the Ornate Layer Dies on the bottom of the 4″ x 5-1/4″ Whisper White cardstock inside layer.
Thank you for visiting with me today, I hope I have inspired you to go create something beautiful and send it on its way.
