Butterflies and blossoms from the just-released Summer Meadow Collage create the perfect backdrop for the new Awesome Jotted Script set. Add a watercolored background and pale turquoise gem stickers and you'll have a sweet card for a very special person. Hello, Jean Okimoto here with more inspiration from our Summer 2018 Collection.
Cut white cardstock with the 3-¾" x 4-¾" Pinpoint Rectangle Layer. Cut Summer Meadow Collage - save the center offcut. This die is designed to cut a delicate frame with an open center. We'll recyle the offcut to create a solid background for the greeting here.
Paint watercolor paper with pale, diluted layers of Kaleidacolor ink refills. They're perfect as liquid watercolors - and come in over 50 great shades ranging from soft pastels to bright jewel tones. Airdry it for a few minutes, give it light spritz of water to soften the colors, then heat-set it. Cut it with the same Pinpoint Rectangle Layer die.
Stamp the greeting - from the Spring Lilacs Clear Stamps - on the collage offcut with Starlite Black Brilliance.
Cut the delicate Awesome Jotted Script from dark gray cardstock. Cut the background from pink cardstock. Here's a tip to make layering quick and easy...attach both ends of the delicate script to the matching background first, then secure the remaining portion. You'll never run out of background - or have too much background.
Attach the diecuts to a 5-½" square white card. Add pale turquoise gem stickers.
There are three other Jotted Script die sets - birthday, thanks and wonderful - and we love all of them too! They may look fragile - but they're easy to diecut. Trust me - I cut twelve "awesome" sets and twelve "thanks" for last week's Summer Hearts class in just a few minutes.
Special thanks to everyone from the BEYOND THE BOX and SUMMER HEARTS classes at Impress last weekend. I appreciate how so many of you took both classes - and drove or ferried to Tukwila for the entire day! Thanks too - Shari and Laura - for helping everyone fill their baskets.
Thanks for visiting - see you again tomorrow...
