Botanicuts Morning Glory for Freshly Made Sketches #580
09 April 2023
Happy Easter! This is my second post today. You can find my Paper Players card here.
Today has been one of the very few days in months that I got to play in my craft room just for the fun of it. It's a beautiful sunny day and I was inspired by the unique sketch across at Freshly Made Sketches.
I have a die that I bought a couple of months ago from The Greetery called Morning Glory and it is part of their Botanicuts family. I used a stencil - also from The Greetery to create the four boxes from the sketch at Freshly Made. Here's a close up:
Here's the sketch from Freshly Made:
I die-cut and blended all of the elements from the Morning Glory dies and then assembled them. I also die-cut a second layer to add a little strength to the colored version. I used the Color Spots stencil to create the 4 distinct areas of the sketch onto a piece of white card stock using a slightly lighter color of ink than I used for the morning glories. I used a stitched rectangle die to allow me to create a frame for the focal image. I added a sentiment and mounted the morning glory onto the base with some foam dots. I also backed the stencilled layer with 4 pieces of cardstock to provide a gap between the base of the card and the focala layer.
Here's my full card:
Well, I am going back into my crafting area to see if there are any other challenges that inspire me to create a card! I hope you are all enjoying your Easter Sunday. Warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift today
Hugs
