Beautiful Blooming Vine
It's Friday already--where did this week go?
I'm happy to share my card with you and really, I must have had orange Creamsicles on the brain when designing this card. The orange and cream color combination remind me of my favorite frozen treat.
Just this week the Blooming Vine die arrived and I couldn't wait to try it out. I absolutely love the graceful curved vine and delicate flowers---so pretty!
After cutting two from green card stock and another two from cream, I snipped the cream flowers off, glued them onto the green vines (use those tweezers) and added a touch of light orange marker to the flowers and gemstones. There is also some shading on the vine leaves with green marker.
I positioned one vine intact onto the card over the layered panels. The second vine was cut into segments and added around the Large Circle Burst and the Thank You sentiment which was scissor trimmed on the right side to fit into the circle curve. To adhere the delicate vines, hold the vine with tweezers and carefully dab tiny amouts of Tombo Mono Aqua liquid glue onto the reverse side--if you over do it, glue will goosh out (a real word) and need to be blotted off immediately. A little dab will do ya. I prefer this glue as it doesn't leave a trace where its been wiped off.
So that's it--hope you will recreate this card or make another version with these great dies...now I'm off to find an orange Creamsicle.
