I was in a bit of a creative funk a couple of weeks ago and needed to create without a real purpose. I watched the amazingly talented Dawn Woleslagle (of Wplus9 Design) when she was teaching a Live on her FB page and was super inspired. I rarely CASE (Copy and Selectively Edit) but for today’s card, that is exactly what I did. And I’m so glad!
Naturally, when Dawn made her card, she used greenery from her line of stamps but I just sent with what I had. And what I had was a couple of sets from The Greetery. I started with a piece of Evergreen card stock (C9) and stamped the background leaves in Evergreen ink. On top of that, I stamped a different leave group in Mowed Lawn Oxide Ink, trying to keep it a bit shadowy.
Once I had the leaves done, I chose this big banner sentiment from the Be Merry set (WPlus9). I stamped in Versamark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder for a bolder look. I then splattered using some Hero Arts Metallic Ink in Gold and with white gouache.
Dawn has not posted her card yet but I’m sure she will at some point. In the mean time, just go over and admire all the beautiful things she creates at her Instagram page HERE. Thanks for stopping by today! See you soon.

This is gorgeous, Jennifer! I love watching Dawn create but, sadly, work stops me from watching live most of the time. Doesn’t stop me ordering her products though 🙂
LOVE this look!! Gorgeous greenery behind the bright pop of that sentiment!
