Yana Smakula has a really lovely new collection that just released a few days ago - it's called Anemone Blooms, and it is amazing!
Today I have some cards that use her Anemone dies and matching sentiment dies from this collection. I wasn't familiar with this kind of anemone, so I looked it up and found pictures that suggested it comes in white, red, purple, and bright pink.
For my first card I used all colored foils for all my die-cutting.
supplies: white cardstock, lavender, sage green, and gold foil cardstock, Yana's Anemone dies and Wonderful Script Sentiments dies, microdot adhesive
My sentiment is just 1 of 4 different ones, and there are shadow dies to match each. I used microdot adhesive to adhere the floral outline and the sentiment, and glue to inlay the flower parts right onto my card base.
Here's a 2nd version. This time I cut everything from ivory cardstock and watercolored in the details.
supplies: white, black, and ivory cardstock, Yana's Anemone dies and Wonderful Script Sentiment die, Zig watercolor markers and water, microdot adhesive
I'm really pleased with how this one turned out! I intentionally used an ivory as my background and white for my card base. This time I stuck to the script and gave the flowers black centers, as they all had when I looked them up. That tied in nicely with my black sentiment.
