Hello. I had time to craft and create the following card today:
I was intrigued by the current recipe for the As You See It Challenge and decided to see what I could come up with – flowers, frame, happy sentiment, punch/die, shades of orange.
I began with choosing some flower die cuts from The Greetery ‘Embroidered Blooms‘ – and cut the elements from tones of orange, some green, grey, and yellow for added interest.
I then chose a frame die set from Pinkfresh Studio, and used ‘Cayenne‘ card stock from Concord & 9th, adding a couple of white layers beneath for dimension, rather than using 3D foam.
Arranging on a 5×5 inch card base to align with the square frame, I felt the background was a little too plain, so I used an Altenew embossing folder ‘Daisy Bed 3D‘.
This embossed panel was glued down to the card base, the frame added, then the florals arranged.
The sentiment is from Pinkfresh Studio, stamped and die cut with the matching die. I chose black for a little more drama, and even added three little black Spellbinder gems – I do like to use gems….
A smaller card and a different size than my usual, but I think it is quite cute – if I do say so myself…..
I shall be entering the following challenges:
A Cut Above – anything goes with a die cut
As You See It – recipe – flowers, orange, frame, happy sentiment, punch/die
Ellibelle’s Corner – anything in or from the garden
Beautiful Blossoms – florals

Your die cut autumnal spray is fantastic – it’s both a great die but is also beautifully arranged. The touches of grey are genius. The frame is interesting and really holds the design together and I love the embossed background. Thanks for sharing with us at As You See It.
