I have a cute little pocket card to share with you today. This is the card I am making and sending out to all my customers with their NEW 2017-2018 Catalog! Keep reading to find out how to get your own (or scroll to the bottom).
I wanted to make a pocket card, because I am including a coupon in each card.
Here is the Note Pocket Die (DI-0025) that I used to make this card.
It fits nicely on a half sheet of card stock (5-1/2" x 8-1/2") with a bit of card stock left over you could save and use for something small.
I used two stamp sets to make this card, the Lovely Day ATS (AT-0188) and the Canvas Prints Stamp (SS-0019).
To bring my flowers to life I used my Color Burst Pencils (JM-077) to color the centers and stems of the flowers. I wanted to match this to my card stock and ink color, Sweet Pear, and with the Color Burst Pencils, you have what you need to match all the FSJ colors. With 48 pencils in the tin, you get tints and shades of numerous colors. This allows you to shade, blend and do ombre effects. It also means that if there is not one pencil to match your specific color, there are two you can blend together to make that color. In this case, I used Pencils 16 and 21 to make Sweet Pear!
I also added some shimmer to my flower by painting on some Sparkle Silk (IP-0126), look at those petals!
I thought you might like to SEE how I made this card, see me die cut the Note Pocket. Watch how I create the Sweet Pear with my Color Burst Pencils and experience the flower coming to life with the Sparkle Silk. Here is my video demonstrating all these fun things for you.
