Trees were stamped in grey ink, using first and second generation impressions, on to white card. This panel was then embossed in Snowflake Sky embossing folder. The base of the piece was then smeared with texture paste and allowed to dry. 
Solid trees were die cut in Mossy Meadow card, and the filigree trees in both white and garden green card. These were layered together with the white being the middle layer. Texture paste was swiped round the edges and over the branches.
The stamped, embossed panel was matted with green card and layered on to the white card base. The green die cut trees were added along with two stamped, die cut birds, and ribboned gems to the corners. Wink of Stella pen was brushed over the texture paste and the birds wings for sparkle.

A panel of Old Olive, and an oval die cut from white card were embossed using Evergreen Forest embossing folder. Trees were stamped on white card with grey ink and coloured using the masks. Texture paste was swiped through the top mask.
Cord was knotted across the green panel and it was then added to the Mossy Meadow base. The white oval was mounted on top with dimensionals, and the trees shaped and layered on the oval. Stamped and die cut birds were added along with brass bird trinkets and milky dots gems.
 Wink of Stella pen was applied to the trees and the birds wings, and Stardust pen to the card and oval edges.


Peach card was used for the base and panel, layered with Horizons paper.

Gorgeous Garden & Petal Patterns Background Dies - Stampin'up

 Hello

To create these designs the Gorgeous Garden 2 die set from Stampin'up  was used for the first 2 cards.


The die cut was backed with a coordinating coloured pearl card and layered on to a matching coloured paper. A coordinating stamped and die cut label was added along with a ribbon bow and gems.
Glossy Accents and Stickles Glitter glue were applied for highlights.


For this design the die cut was backed with a contrasting pearl card. A stamped and die cut sentiment was added. A crochet flower and green paper leaves were attached with a flower brad, and the base of the panel wrapped with organza ribbon. This was then fixed to the base and the ribbon bow added. Gems and Brass butterflies finish off.


Petal Patterns 2 piece die set is used here. The solid background die is cut in plain card and the open petals die in shimmer card of the same colour. These were layered together, and a piece of ribbon knotted through the corner. This was then attached to patterned paper with brads, then to card.
Butterflies were die cut using Butterfly Brilliance dies. A sentiment label was created, outlined with Stardust pen and fixed in place. Gems complete the design.

Have a great day.
