Oh So Eclectic Thank You Card

Hey peaches! I have a really fun card for you today! I think that if I share how I came up with the layout, it could be helpful to you when you find yourself “stuck creatively”. This card features the Oh So Eclectic Bundle which has the most beautiful and aptly named stamps and coordinating dies. I feel like every time I use this set, it’s so easy to create something artistic and beautiful.



There are times when I get in my craft room and just feel like I can’t come up with what I want to create. I have talked about a few of these strategies in previous blog posts, but I’m going to share one in particular today. One strategy I use is to look at my scrapbook layouts and take certain elements and details from that layout/design. For today’s card I used a recent scrapbook page that I created for my niece’s first birthday. I’ll post it below for comparison.




In the layout you can see that I took one of the watercolored flowers from the design and used it for my card. You may notice that my floral centerpiece has quite a bit of dimension. That’s because I watercolored on to Watercolor Paper and die cut it out with the floral die and then cut out 3 more of the same flower from Whisper White Cardstock, and layered them on top of each other. That’s how I created all of that dimension.



 I also stamped the background with the same floral stamp in second generation (stamped off once then stamped onto my panel), in Smokey Slate Ink onto a piece of Whisper White Cardstock. Additionally, I mimicked my scrapbook page by using the same Whisper White Baker’s Twine and a few sequins from the Iridescent Sequin Assortment. And it was as simple as that! It’s so fun to create a design based of of another layout. I hope you have enjoyed my projects today! Thanks so much for stopping by and I’ll see you next post!
