The Greetery-La Dolce Vita Collection Day 2 Introductions

Hi there! Today I’m joining The Greetery for Day 2 introductions to the La Dolce Vita Collection.

My first card features the BotaniCuts Tomatoes die set. For the background I used the Checks Out A2 Border die. For the sentiment I used the Rolling Hills Bella Terra Addition stamp & die set.

For the checkered background I used Bluebell & Capri cardstock. For the tomatoes I used Grapefruit cardstock and blended Poppy, Cranberry & Buttercup ink to give the tomatoes more variation. For the leaves I used Lemongrass cardstock and blended Juniper ink for added color.

This next card uses the Vine Ripened Stamp Set along with the Tomato Tomato Stamp Set for the sentiment.

Here I stamped the tomatoes with Pimento ink and using blender brushes I blended Cranberry, Poppy and Buttercup ink onto parts of the stamps to stamp more varied colors onto the tomatoes. For the leaves I used Eucalyptus and Juniper ink.

For this card I used the Rolling Hills Embossing Folder and trimmed the top half of the card off, leaving only the rolling hills on the bottom. I added the house using the Countryside Villa Mini Die. I used Copic markers to add some shadows to the house and trees. I used the Rolling Hills Bella Terra Addition Stamp Set for the flowers and for the sentiment I used the Simple Everyday Sentiments Stamp Set.

Here I created a house shape card using the Countryside Villa Jumbo Die along with the Rolling Hills Bella Terra Addition stamp set for the sentiment.

Here is a video showing how I created this card.

This last card features the Tile Style stamp set. For the sentiment I used the Simple Everyday Sentiments stamp set.
