Because I care

Because I care a 2010 VC Rocks Make and Take presented by Patrice Herrera




Supplies:

Whisper White CS 1- 5 ¼ x 8 ½, 1 - 2 ¾ x 3 ¼”

& 1- 2 ½ x 2 ½” scrap

Taken With Teal CS 1- 3” x 3 ½” 1- ¾’’ x 5 ¼ “ for the trim

3 lg. Blue Brads

Scallop Trim Border Punch, 1/16” Hand Held Punch

Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Bordering Blue, Brocade Blue & Taken with Teal Markers

Garden Green & Certainly Celery Markers

Frost White Shimmer Mist

Black StazOn Ink



Stamp Sets: (New) Because I Care - Hydrangea Flower

(New Hostess Set Level 2) Occasional Quotes

“I am here for you”.



Instructions: Fold White CS in half. Use the Scallop Trim Punch to make a border on the right hand side of the card one layer only. Attach the ¾ “Taken with Teal piece to the inside of the punched white CS. Stamp “I am here for you” with StazOn ink in the center of the bottom of the card front and set aside.

Take the 2 ¾ piece of white CS and punch 3 holes in the lower right hand corner as show in the example with the 1/16 hand punch.

Make a mask with a small strip of paper to cover the Hydrangea Flower. Use the Garden Green Marker to color in the leaves and the stem only. Huff the stamp to rehydrate it and stamp the leaves & Stem image towards the bottom of the 2 ¾ pieces of CS. Reposition the mask to cover the leaves and stem and ink the flower head with the StazOn ink. Stamp the image on the scrap piece of CS, let it dry a few minutes, then begin to color in the flower with the 3 colors of blue markers, using light colors first. Once you are satisfied with the color of the flower spray it with the shimmer mist set it aside to let dry.

While the shimmer mist is drying attach the 3 blue brads to the stamped leaves image. Now cut the flower out leaving a small white rim around the flower. Attach the flower head to the stamped leaves image with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Attach the stamped image to the Taken with Teal CS and attach this piece to the front of the card.

This is a really good second card to demonstrate for a workshop.
