To start the process, I've used Ranger and Jacquard alcohol inks in shades of cranberry, ginger, latte, mocha, gunmetal and bronze along with Tree-Free non-absorbent card. This is not Yupo paper, I've found an alternative that comes in sheets of 8x12"card that's 300 gsm/140 lb. and 20 sheets to the pack. If you're interested, you can find it at the USA Amazon Site HERE.
Using the Fantasy Floral 3-D layering Die Set from Altenew, I've die cut all the floral layers from the alcohol inked card. I've die cut a triangle stitched frame, embossed a 3.75 x 5" cream colored card panel and cut the leaves from olive green card. To give the leaves added interest, I've finger creased them which gave them some shape.
Before embossing the panel, I stamped the sentiment, from the Altenew Magnificent Branch Stamp Set, using Rich Cocoa Ink from Memento. I did a "dry run" with the arrangement before adhering to the panel. Once happy with the look, I picked everything up with Press & Seal Cling Wrap, popped the florals on craft foam and adhered the arrangement to the panel. Lastly, I've added peach enamel dots to complete the design.
That's all I have for you this Friday. I wish you a wonderful weekend and until next time, Happy Crafting!
