Little Cherub in a Gorgeous Frame

 As I was preparing my instructional video for the Merriest Moments Bundle, I was wanting to do an open frame sample. Mom and I came up with this gorgeous original featuring the Hybrid Embossing Folder and Die with the darling Cherub from the Angels of Peace stamp set.  I have also paired it with our soon-to-be-released Ever Eden Specialty DSP. It is just stunning.



Measurements:    

  • Soft Succulent: 1/2 sheet
  • Very Vanilla: 4" x 5 1/4", scrap
  • Brushed Metallics: 1/4 sheet
To Make This Card:

  • Attach Ever Eden DSP to Soft Succulent piece.  Cut stitched rectangle opening in the center. (This die is included in the bundle.)
  • Emboss the Metallic Foil with EF.  Die cut with "detail" die.  Then cut out center. Save this piece. This may flatten it more than expected so you can re-emboss the foil. 
  • Now, attach this "frame" around opening with Dimensionals.
  • Place Very Vanilla piece inside.  
  • Adhere Foil rectangle through center opening of card. 
  • Stamp and emboss Little Cherub in Gold Embossing Powder.  Fussy cut her out.  Attach to Foil Rectangle.
  • Finish with gold embossed "sprigs" and sentiment at the bottom.  I added a Brushed Gold Dot to each sprig.
  • Emboss the Just Jade piece.  This JUST fits, so carefully line it up on the quarter sheet of cardstock.  
  • Now, run this piece through the Cut & Emboss, again, this time using the detail die. (there is just minimal flattening.)
  • Attach this piece to the front of card with Dimentionals. 
  • Add Very Vanilla to inside of card. 
  • Place Brushed Gold rectangle through opening and adhere to inside of card.
  • Emboss Little Cherub in Gold Embossing Powder.  Fussy Cut out with paper snips. Attach to Gold rectangle.
  • Finish inside with Gold Embossed "boughs" and sentiment.  I also added Brushed Gold Dots to the "boughs".
