Hydrangea Lawns Easel Card

Kia Ora Koutou

Welcome back to my second Design Team post for Dress My Craft.

I am still having so much fun with the Hydrangea Lawns paper and motifs and I really love using the Soft Floral Oriental paper for making flowers.  This paper is so easy to shape using the Golf Tools and the foam mat and the flower shaping possibilities are endless.  For today I have made an easel card using the circle nesting dies which are so versatile.

 

These little birds are just so cute, and I love the little sentiments that can be customized from the Motif Sheets.  They add some punch to your projects yet do not detract from your artwork.

Watch how I have made this easel card here:

A Clean and Simple Easel Card

Kia Ora Koutou

Welcome back and today I am sharing a very clean and simple easel card featuring the very beautiful Anja’s Oval Die – LR0376 from Marianne Designs.

This die set is so versatile and so easy to create stunning cards.  I love the beautiful embossing that you get with the dies and how these dies can be layered in so many ways.  I have also kept this card very simple with the use of some pearls for the easel to sit against rather than adding an extra raised layer on the base of the card.  And of course I have to finish the card with Heartfelt Creations flowers and leaves.  I have used the following products:

Marianne Designs – LR0376 Anja’s Oval Die

Heartfelt Creations – Oakberry Lane Blossoms stamp, die and mold, Leafy Accents stamp, die and mold

Ranger Archival inks – Buttercup, Vibrant Fuchsia, Magenta Hue, Leaf Green, Fern Green, Library Green
