3D Cattails
by Penny

 

Hello Memory Box friends. Penny here today with something on the "manly" side. It seems all of a sudden I need these kinds of cards.

Super Easy Peasy Mr. Sneezy and just take a look at those adorable 3D cattails.

Here is how to recreate this:

 

Cut Lime card stock as a base. Cut Gray card stock just a bit smaller, emboss Thank You Tiles across the center as shown. (Depending on your die cut machine, most likely you will use a rubber mat instead of a cutting mat to achieve an embossed look) Adhere this panel to the Lime with just the left and bottom edges peeking out.

 

 

Die cut Tall Cattails from White card stock. Use Copics, paint or colored pencils on the stems. Coat the fuzzy cattail section with White Amplify!, then heat set and watch the magic happen as it puffs up. Tap a dark brown marker against the cattail (Copic E47 was used here), until happy with results.

Adhere to card front and trim as necessary. Add Apple Green Crystal Drops.

This is a 10 minute card…you can do it too!

 

Happy Crafting,

  1. I love this card Penny, I am a huge fan of cattails. (Reminds me of my childhood!)

  2. I love your masculine card! I too am finding that I am needing more male cards. Please tell me, what is “Amplify” and where can I get it? Thanks
