The early release Ornate Garden Suite from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog is amazing! I’ve been having lots of fun making cards with it. This card uses many of the items from the suite. I love this greeting from the Ornate Thanks Stamp Set–you can use it for anything! Just say what you want inside!
The ornate dies in this suite are amazing. They add so much to a card. On this card I used a die from the Ornate Layers Dies.
Card Recipe:
- Card base: Terracotta Tile card stock 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 Scored at 4 1/4
- Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper 5 1/4 x 4 Adhere to card base.
- Cut ornate frame from Whisper White card stock using the Ornate Layers Die and the Big Shot.
- Run this piece through the Big Shot with the Ornate Floral 3-D Embossing Folder.
