Live With Zest
Hello bloggers! I thought I would share one more Still Life card with you! I selected a piece of yellow card to use as the background. Next I used a Script Stencil and randomly laid it down and used Transparent Texture paste through the stencil, then picked it up and added some more in different areas, rather than doing the entire background. I set it aside to dry thoroughly. I used one of Jamie's dies, the Fluted Rectangles, to cut a decorative edge on it. Next I cut the Leafy Rectangular Frame out of green card. I cut the matching shadow backing die in white and glued the green leafy frame to it. Next I stamped and cut out five of the small lemons from the Fruits stamp/die set. I coloured them with a yellow pencil, the added them randomly around the frame. I cut white flowers and added them to the leafy frame too. I cut the Live With Zest sentiment with black words and glued them to a white backing and added a yellow frame around them before adding it to the middle of the frame with mounting foam. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1//4" x 9 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
