Day 2: September Blog Hop

Hello everyone. This is Amanda from Twiddler’s Nook sharing a sweet card featuring the Layered Sunflowers stencils along with the Potted Sunflowers stamps and dies. These products work beautifully together or separate!

For this card, I stamped and color the swag image in Potted Sunflowers with my copic markers and used the coordinating dies to cut it out. The colors I used today were Y15, Y13, Y11, E44, E43, E42, G16, G14, and G12.

I started with an A2 size piece of white cardstock and inked up the first few layers of the Layered Sunflower stencil set with blending brushes and dye inks. For the final layer – the flower centers – I spread Thermoweb Transfer Gel Blanco through it and set the panel aside to dry. Once it was dry, I heated up my laminator, placed the panel and a piece of bronze Deco Foil in a Craft & Carrier sheet and sent it through. I love the extra shine the foiling gives the flowers. It’s so pretty in the light.

Next, I cut a strip of brown cardstock to 1×4.25 inches and heat embossed my sentiment on the right side. Finally, I assembled my card by adding the foiled panel to a white card base. Then I added the sentiment panel with foam tape and glued a 1/4 inch strip of kraft paper to the top edge. Last, I added the sunflower swag image with a combination of liquid glue and foam squares so it sits evenly.

For finishing touches, I just added glossy accents to the flower centers so they are shiny like the foiled ones.
