Lemony

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Here's another one of those stamp sets that retired before I could use it.
I'm sure you can find something similar if you are looking.


I embossed a piece of Neenah 110 lb Solar White cardstock with the 3D embossing 
folder and colored the lemons and leaves with Copics.

It has a die with the bundle so I cut the lemons and taped them into the embossing
folder with the ones that matched up with the dies and embossed.  Then I colored them
up to match the background.

After splitting and trimming the background, I popped the die cut and embossed
lemon pieces over the top

We'll be doing another card using this set in class later this week.
I love getting more than one design from a set!



Challenges:
Can You Handle the Pressure - ATG Embossing with option of fruit or veggie
Four Seasons - Summer
NBUS #63 - Never Before Used Schtuff

  







Card Recipe
Stamps:  Sentiment Strips (Alt)
Ink:   Versafine Onyx Black
Paper:   Neenah Solar White, Daffodil Delight
Other:  Sweet Citrus Die & EF (ret SU), Copics (Y13, Y15, YG03)


Enjoy!

Lemons are refreshing and your card has a fresh and happy look to it, Bonnie. Great job with the coloring!

The lemons look so real with all the texture from the 3D embossing folder Bonnie, and love the added die cut ones over the top and the split revealing the yellow background wide enough to take the sentiment finishes this beautifully. x

Those stamps really show off the dimensions of the pulp in the lemons and your coloring is perfect. I find I keep sucking in my cheeks as I read this!

Darnell said...

This is a fun example of dies that are included with e/fs, Bon! The extra layer of texture and dementia really make this a juicy work of art! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! No matter how old! (I looked at something the other day that I hadn't used and thought I'd had for only a coupla years. Then I saw the date on it was 2018!) Hugs, Dolly

The embossing folder and the coordinated dies allow you to create really interesting cards. These lemons look great and were beautifully painted by you. Beautiful card layout
