TUESDAY IS THE TIME FOR TIPS & TECHNIQUES WITH YOUR CARD MAKING EXPERIENCE

Today I have a card, featuring the soon-to-be-released Painterly Pears Suite Collection, and three great techniques to share with you.

The techniques are: DRY EMBOSSING, HEAT EMBOSSING and ALCOHOL INK COLOURING.

For this card I started with a Mossy Meadow landscape card base.

Then I DRY EMBOSSED a piece of Basic White card using the Mini Corrugated 3D Embossing Folder.

For the five pears and leaves, I stamped the images using Versamark and the clear embossing powder from the Basics WOW! Embossing Powder.

After HEAT EMBOSSING the images, I die cut the shapes.

I coloured each of the pears and leaves using Stampin’ Blends – ALCOHOL INK COLOURING.

I used several Stampin’ Blends to colour each of the pears and leaves – Daffodil Delight, Mossy Meadow, Old Olive and Real Red.

A length of Mossy Meadow & Gold Trim was wrapped around the corrugated white panel. Then, using Mini Glue Dots, I positioned the pears under and above the ribbon. Each of the leaves were then added at the top of each pear.

I took another length of the ribbon and cut it into strips – using the ‘Tammy technique’. These strips were then tied into a bow and secured to the front of the card.

The greeting was stamped and trimmed, with a banner end, before I added it to the card front.

Finally I added some Flower Accents to the card.

The card insert and back of the envelope each had the double pear image stamped.

Tomorrow I have another card project to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.
