Nature’s Walk In Botanical Gazette–Day 6

Well, I think I saved the best for last. Today’s the last post in a series of cards made with Nature’s Walk from the Occasions Mini Catalog. I cased it from a 3x6 card made by Holly Krautkremer at rubberredneck.typepad.com.  I embossed the first layer of Basic Black using my Big Shot, stamped the bee, and all the rest was just sticking it together! I love this card!

Nature’s Walk In Botanical Gazette–Day 5

I have to tell you – I love this card! I cased this from a similar card on the cover of the 2008 Idea Book and Catalog. I really love the combination of colors, I guess. I stamped and water colored the bird and flowers before cutting them out and attaching them to the card. The bee is stamped right on to the card base. See the scallop border? So easy! I punched the border out using the Scallop Border punch and then added the detail with my Early Espresso Stampin Write marker.

Nature’s Walk In Botanical Gazette–Day 4

No, it’s not your imagination! I’m STILL creating cards using the super pretty stamp set, Nature’s Walk. Today’s card is fun because it’s like making your own Designer Series Paper! I stamped the images all over a piece of Very Vanilla Card Stock using Not Quite Navy, Bravo Burgundy, and So Saffron Classic Inks. I punched holes in the borders, tore the edges, and layered it with a piece of Bravo Burgundy card stock. Pearls and a matted sentiment finish it right up! I also stamped the bird image in Not Quite Navy onto the card base for some added interest! And, yes, I know it’s not Father’s Day but I did think it would make a nice masculine card so….Happy Father’s Day! I cased this card from a similar one in an old Idea Book and Catalog. Send me an email if you need a catalog of your own!

Nature Walk In Botanical Gazette–Day 3

Today’s card is a continuation of a series I’m posting this week that use the Nature’s Walk stamp set from the Occasions Mini Catalog and the Botanical Gazette Designer Series Paper that coordinates beautifully with it. The birdcage on the right hand side is a part of the designer paper so no stamping necessary there! I stamped the flower image in Not Quite Navy on to the card base, layered the card stock and designer paper and added a cut out bird that I stamped and colored using an Aquapainter. The sentiment is stamped right on to the designer paper. I think this makes a nice masculine card!
