Aster Greens

Hello to all you crafters! Today's card was made for a challenge at Joan's Touch. It called for using the colors of green and white, an embossing folder (inking inside optional), and an oval. The photo above was taken in a different setting than I usually do so the white panels/layers look cream colored but they are actually white card stock.

I used Christmas pine card stock (we still have snow here, albeit slowly melting) from GKD for my base card and added a white layer.

I cut and embossed a frame in green using a Spellbinders Timeless Rectangles die. Next, I inked the raised side of the inside of a Darice Interlocking Circles embossing folder with GKD Grass Green ink and then embossed a white panel in the folder. This was then adhered to the green frame and popped on to the base with dimensionals.

The green oval was cut and embossed with Spellbinders Radiant Rectangles dies. The sentiment, from GKD Elegant Florals, was stamped in Versamark and then heat embossed with white EP. I popped it onto the framed panel with dimensionals.

The flower, cut from HFC Delicate Asters dies, and the leafy sprigs, from Poppy Stamps die,  were added to complete the project. As a final touch, I added a white pearl to the center of the aster.

Hope you enjoyed this post and thanks for visiting!
