The sky is sponged on using my hand cut template, you can find a pattern to cut your own here (itÂ’s a blog link).
The fence is cut with a Sizzix die which I then cut in two to stretch the width of the card. I stamped the fence with a small texture image from Biblical Impressions and rather than pull out the grey ink pad I just stamped off with the black onto scrap paper before stamping the fence. ItÂ’s attached to the card with AleeneÂ’s tacky glue.
The grass is a Martha Stewart punch sponged with ink and also attached with tacky glue.
The small flowers are a Fiskars border punch and when I want just the flower I cut a ½” strip to insert into the punch under the flower. If you need a visual see a photo in this blog post . The center is cut using a Sizzix button die and glued to the flower. The stems and leaves are free hand cutting and they are also attached with tacky glue.
The corner flower arrangement is two Martha Stewart punches for the greenery, those smaller flowers again and an EK Success punch for the large flower. The large flower is dry embossed using a metal ball stylus and folded paper towel for cushion.
I used the Perfect Layers tools from Perfect Paper Crafting to cut the even borders. Use any brand craft knife for cutting. A tutorial video can be found on the company site.
