{Neat & Tangled} March Release Week: Day 2 + Giveaway!


It's Day 2 of Neat & Tangled's March Release and, today, the design team is featuring the Scandinavian Prints stamp set and coordinating dies, designed by another one of our very talented design team members, Miriam Prantner! If you loved Miriam's Dala Horse and Scandinavian Flowers, this new set is the perfect addition to your collection. Scandinavian Prints will be available for purchase when the March release goes live on Friday.



I stamp-layered so many of the flowers, thinking that I would create a huge bouquet or garden but in the end kept my card relatively simple. I love all the little details in the layers and you will, too. The possibilities are infinite! I modified the Classic Tag die to create a panel for the flowers. In the background, I brayered and dry embossed a background using the Hexastar Cover Plate, also designed by Miriam. You'll see more of that plate tomorrow. ;)


There's a GIVEAWAY! Be sure to leave a comment on the Neat & Tangled Blog for your chance to win the Scandinavian Prints stamp set! There will ALSO be a $25 gift certificate drawn from all comments left on the design team blogs so be sure to leave one here, too! :)

All release products will be available for purchase on Friday and I'll be updating my links at that time. See you again tomorrow!

The flowers and colours are SO ELEGANT, the texture of the base is fabulous too, LOVE IT ALL!!!
THANK YOU for sharing your CREATIVE INSPIRATION, hope you have lots of FUN using the rest of your flowers :)
PS - sorry for the dumb question, but when you say you brayered and dry embossed the background, does that mean you used a brayer to imprint the die?

Lindsey said...

Such a pretty card! I like the lightly inked background and the sponged edges.
