Here is another card that I had for the girls at our recent Shoebox Swap. You may recognize it as something I did with a similar card in March. This time it uses the same Brusho and a new die – but when paired with the returning favorite color Poppy Parade – it gives it a whole new Bright and Cheery Summer feeling!!
The dies are called Springtime Impression and are part of a Bundle that is going to be super popular – the stamps are called Abstract Impression. The dies don’t cut ANYTHING out in the stamp set though – they are just beautiful cut outs on their own.
Here is the video…..if you watched the same technique in March – it will all come back to you!
I should completely call this the Lazy Brusho Technique – because it’s a Two Card in One technique and it came to be by the fact that the first time I did it in the winter I was cold and there was no scrap paper lying near me. If you are like me then often white (shimmer, glossy, vanilla – are they not all the same, lol) often are in such abundance on your workspace that they can stand in for scrap. When I watercolored my original onto the ‘scrap’ I quickly realized that I now had a second (just a beautiful!) piece to work with!
This die is actually easier than the Petal Palatte than I used before – the one large piece is so much nicer to hold on to add the Brusho too.
If you look closely you can see that I switched up the color choices from one card to the second. Once this card goes live and I can add the shopping list in early June I am going to add the original designs as well – most of the items I used on those cards will carry over
Then – make sure to come back in just a couple days (probably after the holiday!) so you can see the rest of the dies in put to use on the ‘scrap’ piece I have left from this first card!!
The Thinking of You sentiment is from the upcoming stamp set Rooted in Nature. On the second card in this set I will use stamps from Abstract Impressions – which is part of the bundle that goes with the dies.
