Combine two great new greetings from our Spring Cheer Collection with the bold and beautiful blossom from January's Anemone Collection.  It's a spring mix of big, little, pastel, bright, plaid, solid, glossy, metallic and matte...all on one card!  Hi, Jean here with a very layered design today.

P1032529

We're using 3 consecutive sizes of the Square Basics dies to frame and highlight the anemone.  Cut a lavender 6x6 from the Twilight Purple Collection with the 2-¾" square die.  Cut a light lavender 6x6 with the 3" square die.  Cut the lavender + gold Anemone Plaid 6x6 with the 3-¼" square die.

Cut the White Anemone Rub On - leave a generous margin around it.  Carefully remove the paper liner.  Tap the design onto the 3" square.  Place it between 2 sheets of printer paper and run it through a diecut machine using the plates you'd use for basic diecutting.  Carefully remove the frosty plastic liner.

Adhere a 1" x 2-¾" piece of ScoreTape to a dark purple sheet from the Twilight Purple Collection.  Cut the Friend Daily Script background.

Cut detailed Friend Daily Script layer from the light lavender sheet - keep the semi-circle for the top of the "e" and the oval for the "d" for the next step.  Save the letters for another project.

Attach the diecut to the adhesive-covered background - save the tape liner.  Add the saved semi-circle and oval.  Use the saved liner to press the diecuts firmly onto the adhesive.  Cover the greeting with detail clear embossing powder, tap off the excess,  and carefully heat-emboss the greeting.  It's adhered, embossed and glossy!

Attach the squares to a white A6 card (4-½" x 6-¼") - use foam tape near the top corners of the squares for extra lift.  

Attach a precut embossed greeting from the new Thank You Foil Greetings White Tabs, then add "friend."  The 40-piece foil greetings tab set includes 4 each of 10 great designs ranging from bold and elegant to delicate and contemporary.  There's a greeting for everyone!

Thanks for visiting our blog...have a great weekend!
