Todays video shares a Personalized Card idea using the New Mirrored Arch Nested Sprigs press plates* with the Every Occasion Floral Alphabet press plate* to create a personalized card with many different personalization opportunities. Ad
In this video I paired the New Mirrored Arch Nested Sprigs press plate from this months release with the Everyday Floral J press plate* from last months release. This technique won’t work for every letter in the Everyday Floral Occasion Alphabet collection, but it will work for many of them. I wanted to create a personalized card with the pair but you can also used them together with a sentiment. I love that the Nested sprigs press plate set has so many different sizes of plates that nest together so you can really customize the look. The Mirrored Arch Labels die set* is a great companion with this plate set to add layers and frames.
The card with the light background was inked with Forest Moss Distress ink before using it in the Spellbinders Platinum 6 machine with the stacking to emboss a die. This lets the detail of the plate press into the White mixed media heavystock while also getting the pillowy dimension from the embossing. The flowers were coloured with copic markers so they stand out. The names for both cards were created with the Be Bold Uppercase and Lowercase die sets. Both cards have tiny butterfly embellishments that were from the Botanical Solarium die set.
The card with the dark background is created with a Cloud 9 Summer Garden interference ink pad and then embossed with Clear embossing powder for extra texture and shine. The flowers on this card were coloured with Pearl Mixative alcohol ink so that it stands out on the black background.
