Geraniums grow like crazy in Southern California, and I was excited to see the geraniums in the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog.
The first thing I did was cut the leaves and stems using a Geraniums Die, from Awash In Beauty Designer Paper, in Granny Apple Green. I used a second die to cut the backing for the leaves from Garden Green Cardstock. The flowers work the same way, and I used Awash In Beauty DSP in Blushing Bride, backed with Polished Pink Cardstock.
Geranium Prayers
The circle was cut with a Stylish Shapes Die, from Awash In Beauty DSP, in a Balmy Blue pattern. I used the largest Stitched Rectangles Die to cut the Blushing Bride plaid, also from Awash In Beauty DSP. A second cut was made to make the rectangle 5 1/4″ X 1 1/4″.
For the background, I embossed the front of the Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, with the Brick & Mortar Embossing Folder.
The sentiment is from the Hope & Prayer Stamp Set, stamped in Memento Black Ink on Thick Basic White Cardstock. After using a Stylish Shapes Die for cutting “you are in my prayers,” I glued it to the back of the circle, and attached both with Dimensionals.
My card is now ready to send someone encouraging words.
I was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches.
