Exotic Garden Collection



With this release I was trying different color palettes and interesting combinations. I used the Vintage Vibes Stamp and Die Bundle to layer the roller skates. Then I inked and embossed the Cool Doodles 3D Embossing Folder for the background. I finished this card with a bit of baker’s twine to tie the skates together.

I could not resist pairing the Just a Number Die Set with an alcohol ink background. I made a very simple blend of yellows with the Summer Afternoon Alcohol Marker Refills. Then I stacked and die cut the word dies on top of a panel of turquoise foil cardstock. I embellished this card with Summer Afternoon Enamel Dots and gold metallic thread.

For my last card, I used the coordinating Just a Number Stamp Set from the previous card. I stamped the outline images of Gardenia Duo Stamp and Die Bundle. The cardstock I used to underlay the stamped images is from the Enjoy the Ride 6X6 Paper Pad.
