Tropical Leaf

Leave a reply

This week I’m making non-Christmas cards and today I’m using the Tropical Leaf set.

The leaf image was stamped in  Lost Lagoon and then anointed with clear Wink of Stella. You may be able to see the sparkle. Next the spines and partial stem of the leaf were stamped in Pretty Peacock.The white layer was matted with Pretty Peacock and positioned so that the sentiment could be stamped.

As I’ve mentioned before, I like to use a layer for positioning in this situation. Although stamping mistakes can be fixed, there’s more scope if the focus piece isn’t already stuck down. So the sentiment from Tropical Leaf was stamped in Pretty Peacock and then the layer was added to the card. A few light green Festive Pearls were colored with the dark Pretty Peacock blend and added.

I will be making this card, along with 2 others using this set on my Facebook Live on Sunday eastern at 11am. You can watch live, see the replay or check it out on YouTube.

When you place a $25 order with me, I’ll send you the cut card stock for free. Also if you share my live, I’ll put you in the raffle for a free embellishment plus a card.

Here I cut a 5 1/2 by 2 inch piece of the Joy of Christmas DSP. It was then layered onto a piece of Basic White cut to 5 1/2 by 2 3/8 inches. These layers were then added to a Cherry Cobbler card base. 

The sentiment from Christmas Classics was stamped at the bottom of the label in Shaded Spruce. The label measures 3 by 2 1/8 and is matted with Shaded Spruce cut to 3 1/8 by 2 1/4. The holly was stamped above it, also in Shaded Spruce. The two corners were stamped in Cherry Cobbler. 

Next the Garden Green watercolor pencil was used to shade in the holly and blended and sparkled with wink of Stella. in Real Red on Basic White. . Finally some red Festive Pearls were added. This was added to the card along with 3 red Festive Pearls for the holly berries. I coloured a few of the pale green Festive Pearls using the dark Shaded Spruce blend and added them aswell.

I will be making this card, along with 2 others using this set on my Facebook Live on Sunday eastern at 11am. You can watch live, see the replay or check it out on YouTube.

The Joy of Christmas DSP was such a good paper that I’m using it again this week with the Christmas Classics set again for the sentiments. Today non demos get access to the mini catalog, so shop away!

Here a piece of the Joy of Christmas DSP was cut to 5 1/2 by 2 inches. It was then layered onto a piece of Basic White measuring 5 1/2 by 2 3/8 inches. Next it was layered onto a Old Olive card base. 

The sentiment was stamped in Old Olive and cut out using the Stylish Shapes dies. It was attached with dimensionals. Finally a few of the silver Festive Pearls were added. I was very happy to find that I’d already ordered another packet of the pearls.
