Summer Meadow Garden Greetings
by Jean Okimoto

 

Garden Beauties dragonflies from the new Summer Meadow collection join the Elegant Peony Blossom on a card for any occasion.  New Heritage Rectangle Frames create a collage-y backdrop.  Hi, Jean here again with another design from our latest release.

Cut Elegant Peony Blossom from Raspberry Sorbet Cardstock.  Cut the stamens – and the narrow, pointy blossom section – from Glossy Black Paper (cardstock).  Create a freeform peony – or refer to illustrations on the back of the product envelope for layering and assembly details. 

Sponge smooth white cardstock with Rocket Red Gold Brilliance ink – use a well-inked stamp pad for quick coverage.  Heat-set the ink.  Diecut it with 3 sizes of the new Heritage Rectangle Frames – 3/4″ x 2″, 1-1/2 ” x 2.75″ and 2-1/8″ x 3-3/8″.

Cut the new Garden Beauties dragonfly wings from the gold Rainbow Reflections Mirror Pad 6×6.  Cut the center sections from the gold Glitzy Glitter Pad 6×6.

Attach the diecuts to a side-folded white A2 card – use foam tape for the tips of the dragonfly wings and the outer edges of the peony.

Add 1/4″ punched circles of the gold Glitzy Glitter Pad 6×6.  Cut an A2-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.

It’s my second Heritage Rectangle Frame card in 2 days- it’s such a great set of 6 dies that it’s hard not to use it again!  The details are well-defined but they don’t compete with other design elements.

Thanks for visiting…have a great weekend!
