Forever Fern And An Olive Branch

May 27, 2020 Leave a Comment

It appears that the internet is cutting in and out, so I’ll make my blog post a quick one. A few days ago I showed you a masculine / gender neutral card and said that it had started life as a bookmark idea. Finally today I got around to designing a leafy bookmark, this time using the new Forever Fern Stamp Set.

Simple bookmark with olive branch image and "you can do this" sentiment created using the Forever Fern Stamp Set from Stampin' Up! #papercraftwithme

DISTINKTIVE® FOLIAGE

I began this project with a 2″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Thick Very Vanilla Card. Then using the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch I shaped one end to create my basic bookmark base.

Next from the Forever Fern Stamp Set I chose the image with long slender leaves. Using Old Olive ink I stamped the branch in opposite directions at each end of the bookmark. All the shading you see is created by the stamp itself owing to the Distinktive manufacturing process.

Next I chose the “you can do this” sentiment and stamped it in the space between the branches using Early Espresso ink.

Finally I used Mint Macaron ink to stamp the spotty image from the set in the empty areas of the bookmark.

All that was left was to thread some Old Olive 1/4″ ribbon from the Ornate Garden Ribbon Combo Pack through the slot at the top. Then once I’d tied it in a simple knot my quick project was done.

FOREVER FERN

I must admit that I’m not really sure why this stamp set is called Forever Fern as none of the images seem very fern-like. However I do love the variety of leafy images that that set contains. I feel it will really complement all those flowery stamp sets I have. It was only after I’d decided to get the set that I realised it had four gorgeous sentiments too!

What’s even better is that all six leaf images can be cut out using the coordinating Forever Flourishing Dies. I showed you a sneak peek of these in my blog post Forever Flourishing makes its debut.

The Forever Fern Stamp Set and Forever Flourishing Dies are available to purchase separately or in a bundle. If you order using the ‘bundle’ item number you’ll save 10% off the cost of buying the two items separately. I’ve included a link to the bundle in case you want to explore this option.
