Lovely Nature!

I'm a natural girl.. I don't wear much make-up,

I love to hike and take power walks w/ my kids and dog...

So Nature speaks to me!

 

When creating a card that captures sweet Nature I couldn't resist utilizing

~ Nature's Pace (a favorite stamp set of mine), then adding

~ Netting (a divine background stamp),

~ the Tea for Two Designer Series Paper (from the Spring Mini)...

let's get started!

With Pretty In Pink card stock as the card base I stamped the Netting background stamp on with Pretty In Pink ink.  It allows for a subtle texture and look, a delicate lacy look to this base of a card.

Stamping the stunning Bee centered vine with Pretty In Pink on Very Vanilla card stock.  It's a little plain... so utilizing the Lucky Limeade Stampin' Write Marker (pen / thinner side) and highlighting the leaves and branches.

 

Highlighting the Bee and Flowers with the So Saffron Stampin' Write Marker (pen / thinner side) and tie in the DSP as well!

 

Using the Labels Collections Framelits and Big Shot the Very Vanilla stamped card stock is easily framed by the Early Espresso card stock in a perfect layer!  Stampin' Dimensional Adhesive adds to the layering process.  The two adhesive backed Basic Jewels Pearls continue the sweetness.

 

The Scallop Edge Border Punch punched two strips of the Tea for Two Designer Series Paper (DSP) and flipping one over, the two sided paper now has a different look of a material on the card. 

With a little gentle love, using a finger nail curl the edges of the punched Designer Series Paper adds interest and whimsy.  The Ruffled feel is tied in with the 3/8" Ruffled Ribbon in Lucky Limeade.
