Can you tell I really love the Garden in Bloom stamps and English Garden DSP? I'm just a flowery girl and these are some of my favorites. I was sad to see the Painted Blooms go away after this past spring, but thankfully English Garden is just as pretty!
I started with a base of 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4". The card above uses Night of Navy with the multi-colored flowers from English Garden DSP and the card below uses Mossy Meadow with the yellow flowers.
The DSP is cut 4" x 4" and placed at the left of the card. The banners are both 2" wide with the Whisper White starting out at 3 3/4" and the Gold Foil sheets 4" long and then punched with the Banner Triple Punch. I wanted the gold to be a tad longer when I layered them.
Punch the banner ends first, so you know where to stamp the flower, then stamp the sentiment across the top.
Dress it up with a 1/8" Gold Ribbon. I used about 8 inches to tie the knot and then trim off the ends at an angle. Attach the white to the gold with a strong adhesive. Keep in mind the gold is a bit slippery, so I used the Fast Fuse so it would stick nice and strong.
Pop some Dimensionals behind the banners and attach to the top lined up with the DSP.
I love the shiny look of the Gold Foil peeking out behind the Whisper White.
Stamping Tip:
To get the very best stamping from your Photopolymer Stamps, always use the Pierce Mat underneath for a crisp clean image.
Thank you for looking in today ~ may you have a Blessed Sunday.
