Good Morning Everyone! I'm so excited to be a Guest Designer for the Creating Kindness Around The World June 2021 Blog Hop! My purpose for today's project was to celebrate Friendship. It has been an unprecedented year for me professionally, and personally, and I'm truly Blessed with some wonderful friends who have gotten me through it! I created a Tower Card using the Plentiful Plants stamp set and coordinating Perfect Plants dies. I used the Brick Pattern from the Bloom Where You Are Planted Designer Series Paper on the background. Then, I created a focal point using cardstock squares and the New Paper Lattice. Next, I adhered my plants, pots, and die cut leaves. Finally, I embellished with the Baker's Twine Essential Pack, and Genial Gems. Although this card may look complicated, I found it to be quite easy, and it took me out of my comfort zone. I hope you will give it a try. Also remember True Friends don't come and go in your life. They stay when it's good. They support when it's bad. They stay loyal when everyone is not!
Card Measurements:
Cinnamon Cinder Card Base: 5 1/2" x 8 1/4" (Score at 1', 2", 3", 5 1/4", 6 1/4", and 7 1/4". Turn on the 5 1/2" side and line up at 1" in the Stampin' Trimmer. Cut from the 1" score line to the 3" score line, then 5 1/4" score line to the 7 1/4" score line. Move the Base over to 2" and repeat the same steps. Then you will turn the base around to the other side and repeat these steps on it as well)
