Stampin' In Alaska

I'm so excited to share a beautiful new digital set from Graciellie Design called Friends Like You .  This set comes with a beautiful floral image and four sentiments.  It's perfect for any occasion AND it's available in Gracie's Etsy shop right now! My card started by printing the floral image two times on Stampin' Up! Whisper White cardstock, coloring with Copic Markers and then fussy cutting both images. Gracie has designed a beautiful new digital paper selection which coordinates perfectly with this set.  I chose to print two coordinating Blue & Pink Watercolor digital papers for the card base.   They were trimmed to size and then machine stitched. Machine stitching is one of my favorite techniques!  Not only does it provide a finished look, but it's a great way to adhere panels.   The colored image was applied to the based and the second floral cut out was layered with dimensional foam tape for dimension.

The Graciellie Design Team is back today and sharing more fabulous inspiration  featuring the August new release .  My card features the new  Happy Greetings set and papers from the Magnolia Dreams   Digital Paper Pack. The digital floral image was printed onto Paper Temptress Cryogen White #89 and colored with Copic markers RV14, RV21, RV23. So, this is one of the things that I {Love} about digital images --- SIZING!! I was able to size both the floral image and sentiment to a larger size to accommodate my design.  I really wanted to focus on the details of the flower and this was perfect. The sentiment was printed onto Paper Temptress Heavy Weight Vellum .  Gorgeous quality vellum and printed perfectly with my HP Photosmart printer. TIP:  Although you can purchase vellum adhesive I love the effect of machine stitching  vellum to the card.  It's functional and a great way...
