Thursday’s Double Feature: Reflected In Nature Cards

For Thursday’s Double Feature Facebook Live I created two fall cards with the Reflected in Nature stamp set from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog and the beautiful Beauty of the Earth DSP. I love this fabulous versatile set that is great for all occasions & gender neutral projects. The sentiments are perfect for encouragement and retirements. You can watch my Facebook Live replay on my Facebook page here or on my YouTube channel below.

Start with a Misty Moonlight cs card base and cut the 1″ flaps on both sides of the card front and glue them down to the card back. Cut your Beauty of the Earth DSP panels.

Stamp the sentiment (the top left) & the eagle image (top right) from the Reflected in Nature stamp set in Misty Moonlight ink on the center DSP panel and then glue the panels onto the card front.

Stamp the cabin image from the Reflected in Nature stamp set in Misty Moonlight cs on Basic White cs (you can use your Stamparatus) and then fussy cut it out with paper snips. Add the image to the center flap of the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add Wink of Stella to the white spaces of the image for sparkle.

Don’t forget to add a Basic White cs inside panel to write your message. I stamped the sentiment from the Reflected in Nature stamp set and added a strip of DSP to the inside and back of the card to pull the theme through.

Product List

Start with a Mossy Meadow cs card base. Cut a Beauty of the Earth DSP panel and a Mossy Meadow cs image panel layer. Use your blending brush to lightly add Mossy Meadow ink to to the DSP panel, Mossy Meadow cs panel , and the edges of the card base. Use your Light Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blend to add more color to the edges of the DSP panel. Glue the DSP panel to the card base.

Stamp the cabin image from the Reflected in Nature stamp set in Memento Black ink on Basic White cs (you can use your Stamparatus). Color your image with Stampin’ Blends. Then fussy cut out the image and glue it to the Mossy Meadow cs image panel layer. Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to add it to the card front.

Stamp the sentiment from the Reflected in Nature stamp set in Mossy Meadow ink on Basic White cs (1/4″) and then fussy cut it into three pieces. Use your Light Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blend to add color to the edges of the sentiment pieces. Glue the sentiment pieces to the card front on the image panel. Tie a small Linen Thread double bow and use glue dots to add it to the bottom right corner of your image panel. Use the Dark Old Olive Stampin’ Blend to add color to pearls and then add them to the card front.

Don’t forget to add a Basic White cs inside panel to write your message. Use your Light Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blend to add color to the edges of the inside panel before gluing down. I stamped the sentiment from the Reflected in Nature stamp set and added a strip of DSP(with added light Mossy Meadow ink applied with my blending brush) to the inside and back of the card to pull the theme through.
