I'm so excited to share today's project with you!! Full disclosure I made this project completely different the first time. I wasn't 100% satisfied with it so I kept thinking of ways to improve it. Well, I ended up thinking up this super cute idea but that would mean scrapping my first plan completely. So I carefully took apart version one and remade it into this. I LOVE this one!! I could make 100 of these and still love them! My adorable little girl is stamped from the Sale-a-Bration Set Catching Butterflies. I colored her with Stampin' Blends and then fussy cut her out. For the one pictured I used Cinnamon Cider for her hair for the one in the video I used Daffodil Delight for her hair. Feel free to get creative with her. I also used the Natural Tones Stampin' Blends for her skin. These are new, they're a set of 10 Stampin' Blends that are designed for skin tones. I LOVE them!
I used my Blending Brushes and Polished Pink, Pale Papaya and Fresh Freesia to make it look like she's pulling a rainbow along with her. I used a Blending Brush and Just Jade for the grassy field she's running through. To get the edges on the ink I used a piece of printer paper that I tore for a rough edge and used for a mask. To finish I cut apart my greeting and adhered it down. I added lots of Loose Flowers and Brushed Brass Butterflies.
This isn't just your typical card. When you untie the ribbon inside are pockets for seeds! What a fun spring gift! This one I included two pockets. You could always write your message on the bottom or behind one of the seeds. In my video I'll show you how to make a one pocket packet if you want. It's sooooo cute!! I'm so glad I ditched my first idea and made this one instead.
Just Jade 5 1/2" x 4 1/4"
Basic White 3 7/8" x 5 1/8
Fresh Freesia 7 1/4" x 8"
On the long side score at 4"
On the short side score at 2"
