I have fallen completely in love with the new Quiet Meadow bundle in the Stampin' Up! annual catalogue. It consists of a fab pack of dies that cut wild flower silhouettes and more and a stamp set to complement the same theme with sentiments, splatters and flowers. Perfect for CAS cards as well as those of you who love a mixed media approach.
For my card I simply cut a vellum stencil and used a blending brush to add the background floral and then added some dies cuts, pen splatters and a little bee busy about his business. The bee is from Garden Wishes and the little tag holding it all together comes in the bundle.
I've used the new in colour card Evening Evergreen with Grey Granite and white. I'm a big fan of copper so my sentiment tag is heat embossed with copper powder and I used a little retired copper metallic thread to carefully attach the tag, but a quick tip would be to add a couple of mini glue dots to the back of the tag to just keep it safely in place.
I love the clear epoxy dots which now come as raindrops which would work just as well.
Happy spring all and thankfully I managed to photograph this on a bright cheerful day amongst the blossom of my pear tree espalier.
Happy weekend and see you again soon for Christmas Card Club on Sunday. I got mixed up last time so I have a couple to share.
Keep safe and keep stamping
