Love flowers? Here's a just-released floral design to add to your collection of Memory Box garden dies. Hi friends, Jean Okimoto here introducing the new Gentle Blossom Watercolor Floral set. Our 6x6 color collections make it quick and easy to find the perfect coordinating colors for the bold, detailed blossom and leaves. Four shades each of the Lush Greens and Vibrant Violets are used here.
Cut the Gentle Blossom Watercolor Floral pieces from dark pink, light pink and violet 6x6's in the Vibrant Violet Collection. Cut the two-piece center from light and dark green 6x6's in the Lush Green Collection - layer them, then daub them with Open Studio Sour Apple Sparkle Glitter Glue.
Cut the leaves from light and dark green 6x6's.
I've used a scrap of watercolored paper from my stash - it's cut with the 6-⅜" x 1-⅜" Slim Basic Rectangles Die. Add specks of Imagine's Gold Sheer Shimmer Spritz, air-dry it for a few minutes, then heat-set it.
Cut the Hello Friend Posh Script background from white cardstock. Pressure-emboss it with the coordinating detailed die using the rubber embossing mat and plate(s) required for your machine. Embossing it adds dimension and makes it very easy to attach the delicate overlay. Cut the overlay from a violet 6x6 and add tiny dots of glue. Press the delicate diecut down into the debossed greeting.
Attach the diecuts to a white slimline card (3-½" x 8-½"). Add sparkly lavender Winter Fantasy Fairy Gemstones. Cut a slimline-sized sheet of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.
Oops...I glanced at Dave's beautiful Gentle Blossom Watercolor Floral on the envelope after the card was done - and realized I made several "leafy" errors. The top leaf is upside-down, both leaves are in the wrong space and dark/light green shades are reversed. Couldn't get much wrong-er than that - it proves how versatile this great die set is!
Thanks for visiting...see you again on Friday!
