Morning all!
I’m back on the Seven Hills Crafts blog today with another Stacks card from the July release from Concord & 9th.
This time, the focus is on the Secret Garden Stacks dies and coordinating stamps – perfect for many occasions!
Stamps: Concord & 9th – Secret Garden Stacks stamps
Dies: Concord & 9th – Secret Garden Stacks dies, Concord & 9th – Pop-Out Stacks Base dies
Once again, I’ve used the Pop-Out Stacks Base dies to create a dimensional scene, but the Secret Garden Stacks dies can also build scenes on flat cards in portrait and landscape format.
I cut the Pop-Out stacks from light blue, dark green, dark grey, and light grey, and then grabbed all my cardstock scraps to assemble the elements for each strip. There are some helpful product images for the set that show how you can assemble the different strips for the Secret Garden Stacks dies.
As with all the Stacks sets that are compatible with the Pop-Out dies, it is easier to add the elements to the strips before sticking them onto the card base. You also need to score any elements that cross the score line down the middle.
There’s lots of scope for adding pops of colour to the florals and the plants. Plus, the little bird bath is a lovely detail that can also be framed by the gate and positioned at the end of the path.
Everything folds down flat to pop in an envelope, and your card will definitely have the wow factor when opened by the recipient.
Until next time, happy crafting!
