SWEET CITRUS
This Sweet Citrus Bundle caught my eye right away! I love that it has a hybrid embossing folder that will emboss the fruit or background! AND I love that the fruits are combined onto one stamp image to make it easier to cut them out! I combined this new bundle with the Hues of Happiness Designer Paper from the Annual Catalog.
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Daffodil Delight cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic White cardstock was added on top.
- The Hues of Happiness DSP was cut to 3-1/2 x 4-3/4 and adhered on top.
- The lemonade glass is 2-1/4 x 3 of both Basic White cardstock and Vellum Paper. The sides were trimmed at an angle to form the glass shape.
- On the Basic White glass, Mango Melody was sponged along the bottom, Daffodil Delight above it, leaving a “rim” of white along the top.
- The Vellum glass was adhered over the colored Basic White glass, then added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The lemons were stamped on Basic White cardstock with the outline image in Daffodil Delight Ink, the insides with So Saffron Ink. It was embossed with the Sweet Citrus Hybrid Embossing Folder and cut with the Sweet Citrus Dies. They were assembled on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. A slit was cut on the half slice to fit over the top of the glass.
- Wink of Stella was added to the lemons.
- Two sets of leaves were stamped with Granny Apple Green Ink and cut with the Sweet Citrus Dies, then tucked around the lemons.
- The greeting from Sweet Citrus was stamped with Memento Black Ink towards the top.
- A trio of green In Color Matte Dots were added to the background.
The embossing just makes the lemons SO realistic! OK, next up on our blog hop is our Create with Connie and Mary website, then on to creative Mary Brown, or head backwards to see Melissa Davies’ fabulous project and see what everyone did with this challenge!
