Nature’s Harvest, Beautifully Penned Paper – Card #2

Welcome to your Make it With Margi Tutorial.  Here is your Nature’s Harvest, Beautifully Penned Designer Series Paper – Card #2. There are at least two options for this card.

We are using the resultant Picture This die cut pieces from Card Kit #1, and incorporating some other elements and colouring techniques.   As Nature’s Harvest Bundle and Quiet Meadow Bundle work well together, I have added Meadow die cuts and greetings to this card design.  Naturally they also stand alone beautifully!

If you’re not in my class groups, you are welcome to enjoy these designs and your own creativity. If you would like to join one of my groups (online – at the moment) and live in Australia, please contact me. I would love to hear from you.

Here are your options for Natures Harvest, Beautifully Penned – Card #2

To recap, here is photo of Picture This, Nature’s Harvest & Beautifully Penned Card #1.  And HERE is the link to the Tutorial for Card #1.

Ingredients for Nature’s Harvest/Quiet Meadow & Beautifully Penned Card #2.

Let’s step through the ingredients used for Card #2.  Some are in the Annual Catalogue, some in the Mini and the paper is one of the Sale-a-Bration papers FREE with a qualifying $90 order.

Here’s a quick snapshot of the ingredients we used in Card #1 and are using in Card #2.

Here are the additional products for Card #2:

Quiet Meadow Bundle

It’s wildflowers galore with this bundle; die cuts, flowers, background stamps and heartfelt greetings.

Stitched Greenery Die

This single die adds texture and a touch of greenery.

Brushed Metallic 12 x 12 Card Stock

The Brushed Metallic is cardstock strong and is brushed so it is more forgiving and doesn’t mark as easily.  There are three colours to co-ordinate with your designs.

Blending Brushes

Blending Brushes are new in the Annual Catalogue.  Apply extremely light shades of ink or create soft gradient backgrounds with no lines. Or use them with Decorative Masks or stencils. The velvety soft bristles blend ink perfectly.

HINT: I use different brushes for yellows, pinks, dark reds, browns, blues and greens.  I can reuse these brushes with similar colours without washing the brushes or transferring the wrong colour.

Step by Step Directions – PINK Card: (please see pictures below)

1. 1. Burnish card base score line
   2. Colour your card base with an ombre look by using your chosen colour; Polished Pink (or any bright pink) and a Blending Brush.  HINT: if you don’t have Blending Brushes, use Stampin’ Sponges (now Retired) or Daubers with a light touch!  Start colouring on scrap paper off your card and then work towards your card.  Apply colour from the bottom of the card and blend upwards in circular motion, with the top of the card being colour free.
   3. Colour your Basic White Thick flower die cut.  Start by colouring the flower with Daffodil Delight, the stem and leaves in Soft Succulent, go over the stem and leaves lightly in Evening Evergreen, and ‘polish’ the flower with Polished Pink leaving the centre yellow.  You can apply more colour onto the edges on the flowers.  I applied less colour to the flower bud.
   4. Trim your Pale Papaya Stitched Greenery piece.  I trimmed my layer to 10.5 x 7 cm.  Retain the rest for the inside of your card or another creation.
   5. Stamp you chosen greeting on a label die cut, I used ‘Hello’ from Garden Wishes on the smaller label.  ‘Love’ from Quiet Meadow also fits the small label beautifully.
   6. Arrange your design.
   7. Adhere DSP rectangles to card base with glue.
   8. Adhere Stitched Greenery layer with Dimensionals.
   9. Adhere botanical die cuts with glue, Mini Glue Dots and Dimensionals
   10. Tie ribbon into a bow and adhere to card with a Mini Glue Dot
   11. Adhere label with Mini Dimensionals.
   12. Adhere flower centre and Champagne Rhinestones

Here is my ‘STAMPED’ version of the PINK card along with Card #1.  I used the stamp from Nature’s Harvest and coloured it with Alcohol Blends.  If you have Nature’s Harvest Bundle, you could make this version of the card.

 

Step by Step Directions – BLUE Card: (please see pictures below)

1. 1. Burnish card base score line
   2. Colour your card base with an ombre look by using your chosen colour; Misty Moonlight (or any strong blue) and a Blending Brush.  HINT: if you don’t have Blending Brushes, use Stampin’ Sponges (now Retired) or Daubers with a light touch!  Start colouring on scrap paper off your card and then work towards your card.  Apply colour from the bottom of the card and blend upwards in circular motion, with the top of the card being colour free.
   3. Colour your Basic White Thick flower die cut.  Start by colouring the flower with Daffodil Delight or Bumblebee, the stem and leaves in Cajun Craze, and ‘polish’ the flower with Cherry Cobbler or any strong deep red leaving the centre yellow.  You can apply more colour onto the edges on the flowers.  I applied less colour to the flower bud.
