Hello Fuchsia Window Box Card
by Sara Cook

Hi everyone!  I have another card with the window box using the new Fuchsia release.  There are some beautiful fuchsia dies along with bugs, bees, and butterflies.  I love the bees and had included them in my scene.

Fuchsia and Leaves:

Die cut the Delicate Fuchsia Trio and Vibrant Leaf Corner die sets from white card stock.  Ink blend using the envelope image as a guide.  I used Distress Oxide following colors,  Spun Sugar, Picked Raspberry, Dusty Concord, Villainous Potion, Squeezed Lemonade, Shabby Shutters, Mowed Lawn, and Pine Needles.  I do have new small sized blending brushes that are at an angle that helps with the ink blending in the small spaces.  I then shaped the follow pieces using a small and extra large ball stylist on a foam pad. Adhere together using the image on the envelope.

Bees:

Die cut the Buzzing Bumblebees from heavy white card stock. Ink blend with Distress Oxide Squeezed Lemonade and Scattered Straw.  Add the black with a fine tip black marker.  Adhere together using the image on the envelope.

Window Box:

Trim heavy weight dark purple card stock to  7″ x 5 3/4″.  Score at 1/4″ around each side then at 3/4″.  Fold on all score lines.  This will create a box in the corner.  Trim the corners with scissors.  Die cut the front center using the largest die from Double Stitch Rectangle Cut Out.  Adhere a piece of acetate trim just slightly smaller then A2 to the inside of the frame.  Adhere 2  colored Vibrant Leaf Corner die cuts to the back of the frame. 

Assembly:

Trim a piece of light green Brilliant Fuchsia pattern paper to A2.  Adhere the Delicate Fuchsia Trio die cuts along with the loose die cuts from the Vibrant Leaf Corner.  Adhere 1 bee on top of the center flower and 1 other flying up to the flowers.  Adhere the Window Box using the 1/4″ folded edge to the backside of the pattern paper.   Adhere to a top folding A2 size white card.  Adhere a white Yellow Breezy Script sentiment die in the lower right hand corner on top of the acetate.
