Welcome to our Team Blog Hop! This month's theme has us reflecting on the retiring January - April 2024 Mini Catalog. There are so many great items that will be going away after April 30th so that is what we are sharing.
I had to go with the Gold Foiled Flowers Cards & Envelopes. These are an absolute favorite of mine. They are actually from the Forever Love Suite Collection (see links below) but you can always order the cards & envelopes separately.
I'm sharing 3 Different ways I have used the cards:
1.) Random coloring with Stampin' Blends
- I used Lemon Lolly and Old Olive blends
- Die cut pieces (labels and leaves) are from the Thoughtful Expressions Bundle
- Embellished with the retiring Brushed Metallic Dots
2.) Highlight coloring with Blending Brushes
- I used the regular and small blending brushes and inks; Fresh Freesia, Balmy Blue and Granny Apple Green
- Use the brushes again to color the Paper Butterflies (ANOTHER RETIRING FAVORITE); Fresh Freesia, Balmy Blue and Highland Heather
- Embellish again with the Brushed Metallic Dots
3.) Not using the Gold Foiled Flowers card as the Card Base
- I cut the foiled card in half then down to 4-1/8 x 5-3/8
- Mount onto Basic Black CS
- Layered the Thoughtful Expressions Dies and kept everything black including the Black Paper Butterfly!!!
