TIMELESS TULIPS EASTER CARD |
|
I do love these Tulips---as they give the stamped image of a 3 D effect. Using Seaside Spray was a great choice for this pretty Easter / Spring Card!
Gather your supplies:
* 1 piece of Whisper White card stock that measures 4-1/4 x 5-1/2 when folded (8-/1/2 x 5-1/2) Also, 1 piece of Whisper White Cardstock measuring 3-3/4 x 5 (for the inside layer. Stamp this piece with the small Tulip bud and the stem with leaf to the left side of the Whisper White piece
* 2 pieces of Seaside Spray card stock that measure 4 x 5-1/4 in---Run 1 of the pieces through the Big Shot with the Subtle Dynamic Embossing Folder---this is for the front.

* 2 pieces of metallic Seaside Spray ribbon cut 5-1/2 in and 3 in
* Die cut with the large plain oval in Soft Sea Foam and with the next smaller scallop die, cut a piece of Whisper white.
* With a strip of Whisper white, stamp the Easter Greeting from Timeless Tulips---cut in a banner shape
* With another scrap of Whisper White, and using Seaside Spray Ink, stamp 2 tulips---fussy cut them out (or if you have the punch-punch them out with the tulip punch) You may put a bit of shimmer on the Tulips using Wink of Stella.
