Into the Wilderness Collection Inspiration with Jen Kotas

Hello! My name is Jen Kotas and I’m so happy to be on the Spellbinders blog today. I’ve got three cards to share with you made using the new Into Wilderness Collection from Sushma Hegde. This is a beautiful collection of floral and landscape stamps.

I kept these cards very clean and simple to keep the focus on the beautiful flowers.  I love the detail added by the Fluted Classics dies. Had I been planning ahead, I would have made sure I could use them in some way on all three cards.

Layered Wildflowers Scene Card

Stamp the Layered Wildflowers Scene Clear Stamp Set with green, red, orange, and yellow inks. Add blue ink blending to the rest of the cardstock. Die-cut the cardstock with the Medium Rectangle Inner Rim from Fluted Classics Rectangles Etched Dies. Stamp the sentiment from Layered Anemones Clear Stamp Set with blue ink. Die-cut a piece of white cardstock with the Medium Rectangle Outer Rim and Medium Rectangle Insert Die and mount the stamped panel on this with foam tape before adding to a card base. Adhere gems with liquid glue.

Other Supplies

Being Around You Wreath Card

Stamp the Being Around You Wreath Clear Stamp Set hanging off the right edge of a piece of white cardstock cut to 4” x 5 1/4”. Color with your preferred coloring medium. I used Copic Markers.

Adhere gems with liquid glue.

Other Supplies

Neenah Solar White cardstock, Pinkfresh Studio Ink in Ocean Breeze and Aqua Marine, Sunny Studio Stamps Iridescent Jewels, Copic Markers, Scotch 3M Foam Tape These stamps look beautiful when colored but are stunning still in just black ink. They would work beautifully as a background as well. You can see more card-making tutorials on my blog, Who Stole My Glitter, or visit my Instagram page for more inspiration. Thanks for visiting!
