Be Bold Collection Inspiration with Joy Baldwin

Hi crafty friends, my name is Joy Baldwin (aka Create It With Joy). I love making handmade cards and sharing them with you. If you want to check out more of my creations, head over to my blog. I’m excited to share three beautiful cards with you today, using the Be Bold Collection. I was so excited to use these dies, the Alphabet dies come in upper and lower case and is a perfect size and font. The flowers and lemons are gorgeous and I am happy to share my projects with you today.

The first card is my favorite, it is a slimline design and the lemons are so fantastic. I die cut the lemons from Sorbet Yellow cardstock and did a little bit of inking with Sunbeam ink to add so detail and interest to the lemons. I also added a yellow Copic marker for some more detail. I die cut the leaves from Fairway and Green Apple cardstock and did a little inking with Sprout and Field ink. The flowers are die cut from Bright White cardstock and the sentiment is Gold Mirror cardstock.

The second card was a lot of die-cutting but, well worth it. These flowers are stunning. I used the same yellow and greens as above and then added Lagoon and Sapphire. The stems are Chocolate cardstock. Some of the flowers have foam tape adhesive to give them some dimension. I finished with the sentiment cut from Gold Mirror cardstock.

The last card is so simple and fun. I thought it would be a great “guy” card. I die cut the “Happy Birthday” sentiments from the blues and yellow cardstock and just lined them up in rows and then added a gold embossed sentiment with foam tape for dimension.
