Let’s begin August with a “clean & simple” friendship card! I began with the sixth largest Everyday Arches Die to cut Basic White Cardstock. Then, I stamped the sentiment in Crumb Cake Ink. “Friends are flowers in the garden of life” is from the You are Remarkable Stamp Set.

Friends are flowers

Next, I used a Scenic Adventures Die to cut the little row of flowers, along the bottom of the arch. This die gives a partial cut, so I placed dimensionals beneath the flowers to lift them, while gluing the arch to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

Prior to gluing, I used Stampin’ Blends to color the flowers in four colors: Daffodil Delight, Darling Duckling, Lemon Lolly, and Granny Apple Green. I placed cardstock behind the lifted flowers, while coloring, to avoid color where it didn’t belong. After coloring the flowers, I glued a “fence” across the bottom of the arch. This was created with a Mixed Labels Die, cut from Crumb Cake Cardstock. It just happened to fit perfectly!

To complete the design, I used the sixth largest Everyday Arches Die with the third largest Everyday Arches Die to cut a “frame” of Basic White Cardstock. After embossing the “frame” with the Exposed Brick Embossing Folder, I glued it around the smaller arch.
