Now that I've made all of the formal introductions, let's get onto the projects!
My first project uses the new Floribunda Frame die, the detail in this makes it so easy to make a memorable project.
I die-cut the frame from watercolor paper and colored it with Zig Clean Color markers, followed by a water pen.
I was careful to do the flowers first and allow them to completely dry before going back in to do the leaves so the color did not bleed together.
The sentiment (from Keep It Simple: Sending Hugs) was heat embossed with white on the Tropical Teal center panel.
The paper natural curls slightly when drying and I like the texture that this creates with the frame.
Here's a quick and easy way to use the frame die if you don't want to do a lot of coloring!
I die-cut it from Aqua Mist cardstock so the flowers already had a color to them. I followed up with a Copic marker to just color the leaves. Then used a q-tip to sponge a little ink in circular motions to the center of each flower. Super easy and fun!
The sentiment from the new Inspired: God set tucks nicely into the frame.
I designed this frame to be the perfect companion to almost any sentiment set, especially Keep It Simple and the Inspired series.
The Medallion Trio set is a personal favorite, however I may be bias since I designed it! It is so easy to create really clean and simple cards that still have a lot of wow factor. This was the easiest one layer card ever and could really be used for any occasion just by swapping out the sentiment.
The sentiment is from the previously released Sending My Love set.
The medallion outline was stamped in True Black, then I stamped the solid sections in a rainbow of colors.
I love the areas where the inks overlap, making a new color!
Here's another fun idea with the medallion that you could have a lot of fun experimenting with.
I started with this sentiment from the new Family Ties set, stamped in Fresh Snow onto the new Honey Nut cardstock. I love having the option to really personalize my projects like this.
I stamped the largest medallion in Fresh Snow as well, but went back in with a white gel pen and added some dots and doodles.
I love this twist on a more masculine card which I am always looking for ideas for.
The coordinating medallion outline die is awesome for doing the inlaid technique.
I cut the medallion from the Tropical Teal card front, then adhered it to a white card base. The opening in the Tropical Teal layer could then be filled with bits and pieces of the same die cut from different colors of cardstock. There are really a lot of possibilities with this.
The sentiment (from Family Ties) was heat embossed in white onto a strip of Limeade Ice cardstock.
I have one last project for you using two different sizes of the medallion together.
I stamped them in Melon Berry and then added the interior solid pieces in Harvest Gold and Summer Sunrise.
The sentiment was added in Classic Kraft ink.
A few clear sequins were adhered to the centers of the medallions.
