What to do with the Lovely Laurel Dies?

4/22/2017

When I received the big box of secret new catalog goodies to create projects for display at Shreveport I tore into it with excitement! When I got in there and saw the product chosen for me I knew I was facing a bit of a creative challenge ;)

I was particularly stumped by the Lovely Laurel Thinlits. Pieces of what looked like a wreath but had a break in the centre...a pop up for a card inside maybe? I wanted to not do something Fall or Christmas orientated...surely that's what they were for?

I was also stumped by Washi Tape! I am NOT a Washi Tape user...I very rarely add some to a card...so, lets up the challenge and use Washi Tape AND the thinlits on a card that's kind've pink and Spring coloured!

I used the Washi Tape down the sides of the card adding a strip of the new Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock. I cut the wreath Faldo from that Cardstock and sponged around the edges to give it a little depth as the leaves felt a bit flat. I wanted to add some flowers to the wreath but I wasn't given the matching stamp set so I used some flowers from the Jar of Love stamp set and embossed with white embossing powder, cut with the matching framelits. I did not use the banner from the Lovely Laurel set as I couldn't figure out how to assemble it to make the pop up.

​Anyway here is is what I ended up with....and would you believe it? The sampl in the new catalog is also pink!!!

Then I thought...ok...that's fine for the inside of a card, but what about the outside of this card? What would that look like using the same product. So this is what I did for the outside of this card...it uses all the same product with the addition of the Stitched Shape Framelits and some Silver Thread.
