The Blossoming Basket bundle is a new Level 2 Sale-a-bration freebie.  I love the Basket Weave folder.  It is a Dynamic folder, so makes a very deep impression.  Here are a few cards I made at one of the crops I attended recently.

Today’s Tips:

-Use Stampin’ Blends to get the rich color and shading.  Many of the colors are on low inventory, so long backorders are a risk if you don’t grab yours quickly.

-Stamp images a second time on a scrap, fussy cut some of the inside petals (last card) or butterflies (2nd and 3rd card) and mount on top for added dimension.  Or fussy cut the little tag and tie on with Baker’s Twine (first card).  On the second card I just poked holes with my paper piercer to add the Baker’s Twine bow.

-The cards below are by Stampin’ Up! artists.  For intricate fussy cutting like they do on many of the samples, turn the paper and not your scissors and leave a little white space.

Happy crafting,

Kim Wilson
