Creating with Textured Floral Dies as the Focal Point
April 02, 2025
Today we're Creating with Textured Floral Dies as the Focal Point. This set of dies coordinates with the stamp set by the same name, however, thes three dies are an awesome set of tools by themselves.
Here's the dies
Yhe three we're working with ...
Here's our card for today...
A bit closer look...
We began with the Boho Blue card base & a layer embossed with the Birch embossing folder--a bit rustic & generic. Over this we used a small layer of Boho Blue in the 2023-2025 In Color Designer Series Paper...we chose the design that is primarily white with images in Boho so that the paper would be more striking.
We then layered our 3 greenery die cuts in the lower left. Notice we used 2 dies with Shaded Spruce cardstock & then added a bit of charm with the 3rd one die cut from Shy Shamrock glimmer paper (2024-2026 In Color Glimmer Paper)...now they all coordinate but there is some lovely contrast to liven it up a bit.
The white circle draws our attention & contains our greeting stamped in Boho Blue. The greeting script is beautiful with it's rounded letters that blend well with our circle.
Tha last embellishment are the 3 large blue dots following the arc of the circle along with the 3 small blue dots scattered among the greenery adding a touch of elegance and sparkle.
Stop back next week to see which Online Exclusive we'll be designing with then.
