Hello Leaves Slimline

Slimline cards are one of my favourite types of cards to create because there is a lot of real estate - area that can be used for so many things. This one is a 4x9 card.

The stitched edges are not a slimline die - that was done using a stitched rectangle die and placing a piece across the centre to hide the section where the end pieces meet. It sure looks like a continuous die, doesn't it? 

The leaves were stamped (outline and filler images) and the filler image had some darker blue ink added at the bases of the leaves. Those pieces were adhered to light blue cardstock. The centre panel was created using a two part leaf stencil and then lightly inked on top to avoid a stark white base. The sentiment was die cut and adhered to that cross panel. The end pieces were adhered to a Sapphire base and I added some clear gems to look like water droplets. 

Products used are as follows: 

Paper: White Daisy Cardstock, Carolina Cardstock, Sapphire Cardstock (all CTMH)

Stamps: Leaf Canopy (Altenew)

Inks: Carolina, Bluebird, Sapphire (all CTMH)

Accessories: Hello Die (SSS), Clear Gems (Hero Arts), Stitched Rectangle Dies (GMD), Leaf Stencil (Stamp Market)

Enjoy,

Alyson
