Splendid Poppy Stems with Embossed Double Stitch Rectangle Cut Outs by Jean Okimoto

Frame glittered Splendid Poppy Stems with embossed Double Stitch Rectangle Cut Outs for a quick spring card.  The Cottage Meadow 6×6 background creates a fresh garden backdrop for the poppies and scattered Cherry Blossom Elements.  Hi, Jean Okimoto here – welcome to Day 4 of our 2020 Spring Collection blog blitz!

Cut the Cottage Meadow 6×6 print with the largest Double Stitch Rectangle Cut Out die.  Emboss the rectangle with the next three dies (evenly spread apart and taped together) to form a  frame for the poppies.

Cut Splendid Poppy Stems from green cardstock.  Cut the flower tops from the pink Delicate Pastel Glitter Pack. Attach it to the green diecuts – slightly offset for dimension.  Cut the double-layered flower tops off, then re-attach them slightly lower, creating shorter stems to fit our background.

Cut Cherry Blossom Elements with the light pink 6×6 glitter sheet.  Attach three little blossoms to the border.

Stamp the greeting – from the Cherry Blosssom Wreath Clear Stamps Set – on white cardstock with black ink.

Attach the background and diecuts to a white A-2 card.  Add ¼” dots punched from the lime green Twinkling Jewel Glitter Pad.  Attach the greeting with foam tape. Add dots of Lemon Drop Open Studio Fairy Sugar to the flowers.
