Friends For Life Color Combo

I made this pretty card for this week’s Color Combo using the Friends For Life Bundle. The leaves were cut from Shy Shamrock Glimmer Paper and they are gorgeous.

 
 

The colors are from my May Inspiration Calendar - Shy Shamrock, Lemon Lolly and Highland Heather. You can get my calendar each month when you subscribe to my email list.

 
 

Tips & Instructions

  • Lemon Lolly Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4 and emboss the front using the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder.

  • Basic White Layer - 3 1/2 x 4 3/4.

  • Die cut 2 large leaves from Shy Shamrock Glimmer Paper using the Friends For Life Dies. Adhere to the white layer.

  • Color a piece of Iridescent Striped Trim using a Dark Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends Marker, wrap it around the white layer and adhere to the back of the layer. Adhere layer to the card base.

  • Die Cut the hexagon shape from Basic White using the Wildflower Designs Dies. Stamp the sentiment in Highland Heather ink and adhere to the card using Dimensionals.

  • Die cut 3 small hearts from Highland Heather and adhere to the sentiment label.

  • Color another piece of the trim and tie a bow. Adhere to the card with a Mini Glue Dot.

 
 

On the inside layer (4 x 5 1/4), stamp the leaf image in Shy Shamrock ink, stamping a second time without re-inking. Ink the stamp and stamp again on a piece of scrap and then on the inside layer. This will give you one dark image and 2 light images. Stamp the hearts in Highland Heather ink.

 
 

There’s lots of texture on this card with the embossed card front, the glimmer leaves and the pretty trim.
