Good morning! I'm popping in to share my first card using the BRAND NEW Out of this World Release from Simon Says Stamp. Once again I'm a bit later than I hoped to be posting this first one, but I'm going to blame summer. So many other things going on to slow things down, right? My first card is all soft colors and a girly romantic feel - it's Strawberry season where I live, so this embossing folder was perfect timing!
I embossed the new Strawberry Fields 3D embossing folder and die set on white cardstock (I didn't use the coordinating dies for this card), and then used my Pinkfresh 1/2" blending brushes (which are the perfect size for this embossing folder!) to add color to the background. I actually didn't use any extra inks, just used the leftover color that was left in each of the brushes. A great way to clean the brushes off, and also ensure a nice soft blend. I trimmed that panel down and mounted with foam on a cream cardbase for some soft contrast. Then I added a simple sentiment from another new set called Happy Icons trimmed that into a thin strip and backed it with some Gold Glitter paper for a bit of extra sparkle. Finished off with a few coordinating jewels sprinkled around the embossed background! Here is a closer look at the finished project!
