Happy Tuesday everyone! You all know what that means….I have a fabulous technique to share with you today!!! We are playing with the Botanical Bundle and creating a fabulous cut-out!!! Check this out!!!
Isn’t this card just beautiful??? I love it!!! I can not take credit for this idea though. I got it from another fabulous demonstrator – Wendy Weixler. Thanks Wendy for the amazing idea!!! Let’s get started!
For this card, I used all 3 products from the Botanical Bundle – Botanical Blooms Stamp Set, Botanical Garden Designer Series Paper, and Botanical Builder Framelits. I started with a piece of Whisper White cardstock measuring 4-1/4″ x 11″ and I folded it in half for my card base! I laid this piece of cardstock onto the Precision Base Plate on my Big Shot and placed the vine framelit from the Botanical Builder Set on the left hand side, solid leaves on the outside, and a little diagonal. You will want to place it falling off your cardstock in the top left corner near your fold. Run it through the Big Shot and there you have that fabulous vine cut-out. I love using the Big Shot Die Brush to pop out the cardstock from the Framelit and get rid of all of those little paper hairs. Now you can decorate as you wish. I used a piece of the Botanical Garden Designer Series Paper measuring 2″ x 5-1/2″. You can make your piece smaller or larger, just make sure it is enough to back the vine cut-out. This piece of DSP will go on the inside left of your card. On the front, I used the little flowers stamp and stamped all up and down the card in Blackberry Bliss. For the other flowers, I used the Botanical Builder Framelits and 3 shades of Purple – Blackberry Bliss, Perfect Plum, and Wisteria Wonder! I added some Crushed Curry Candy Dots to the center of the flowers for a little POP! The greeting is from the Botanicals For You Sale-A-Bration Stamp Set. I used my markers to only ink up the “You’re Awesome” and omit the “…because”. I love this card!!!
