Welcome to Create with Stamping Friends Creatively Simple Challenge! Each month Debbie and I will pick a theme for our simple cards. This month the theme is “Foodie”. Cards that have a food type item on them!
CITRUS BLOOMS
I love the Mediterranean Blooms Designer Paper…so many nice images to cut out…and the various sizes of blue tiles…wow! I especially love the lemons.
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Daffodil Delight cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic Beige was added on the front.
- Two 1-1/4 x 4 strips of Mediterranean Blooms DSP were added to the background offset.
- The double lemon cluster was hand-cut from the DSP and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Four of the leaf branches were cut from Lemon Lime Twist cardstock and tucked around the lemons.
- The greeting from Citrus Blooms stamp set was stamped with Old Olive Ink on a 1/2 x 2-1/2 strip of Basic White cardstock and the ends cut an an angle.
- Some Linen Thread was tied in a bow and added to the stem with a Mini Glue Dot.
- Three yellow Shiny Sequins were added to the background.
I love the circles in the Spotlight on Nature Dies…and they worked perfectly with this stamp set! Check out Debbie’s new Creatively Simple card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
