Potted Geraniums
No matter the season, online classes and flowers are timeless. I combined both in my latest class, which you can watch here. And as you can see from my collection of Potted Geraniums cards, not all geraniums have to be red or pink.
Potted Geraniums In Purples
I find that most papercrafters are passionate about the color purple. Which makes sense to me! With the Geraniums Dies, these flowers in shades of purple seem more like lilacs or even hydrangeas.
For my first card of the class, I did a lot of die cutting. This is always better than a lot of fussy cutting, so make sure you pick up matching dies whenever they are offered.
When you bundle the Potted Geraniums Stamp Set and Geraniums Dies together, you will automatically save 10%. I also used the Deckled Rectangle Dies as a backdrop for my floral bouquet.
Potted Petal Pink Geraniums
When I created my second card for the Potted Geraniums class, I continued to use designer series paper from the Host Rewards selection, Design a Daydream. The Petal Pink papers were soft and sweet, and embossing cardstock with the Twigs & Sprigs Embossing Folder made my tone on tone stand out.
In this card, I did some 2-step stamping. With the photopolymer stamps in the Potted Geraniums Stamp Set, you will easily be able to line up your stamps as well. First, I stamped the full pot image in Crumb Cake. Next, I stamped the partial pot image over the full pot image using Cajun Craze.
Traditional Potted Geraniums
For the last card in my Potted Geraniums Online Class, I chose very traditional colors: red and green. The designer series paper pack, Lovely In Linen, gave me a beautiful Evening Evergreen base to work with.
I did a lot of stamping with this card! Some of it was ink on coordinating color cardstock. Some of it was ink on white cardstock. It is fun to switch up the ordinary to make things extraordinary! And speaking of over the top…this Soft Succulent Satin Ribbon is divine.
