Crafting on the fly with the beautiful Forever Ferns bundle from Stampin’ Up!

I wanted to try the recessed panel card that came across my desk as good ideas to attempt. I hadn't used the Forever Ferns DSP in a while and I wanted to see what I could do to highlight the paper. The best part of this card is that the paper is on sale for 15% off until the end of the month. 

Here's the card I made using the components from the bundle.

  

When you watch the video you can tell that I was a bit indecisive! I die cut pieces I never ended up using!

Here's what I used to make this card: 

  • Pear Pizzazz 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock - 4 1/4 x 5 1/2"
  • Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Thick Cardstock - 4 1/4 x 11"
  • Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock - Scrap for the die-cut sentiment
  • Forever Fern Bundle 
  • Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper - 4 1/4 x 5 1/2"
  • Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack - 28"

  • Stampin' Pierce Mat 
  • Stampin' Dimensionals
