Today I’ve got two cards for you, both with pretty scenery images. One uses the pretty Meandering Meadow Designer Series paper and the other uses making and Blending Brushes with stamps to create the image.

This beautiful card by Beverly, starts with a Basic White card base which has the front die cut with the largest die from the Delicate Forest Die set. Then three pretty embellishments are added for some shine.

I especially like the way that Beverly has finished off the inside of the card. The back of the Meandering Meadows DSP is a wood look pattern and then another piece of the paper is added to the inside edge plus another die cut from the Delicate Forest Dies. The greeting is from the Your Path Awaits stamp set.

Rhonda has used a mask to create the colored circle with blending brushes. Use a circle punch to create a mask and place the mask with the hole over the place to be colored, then add the ink with the blending brushes. Rhonda used Misty Moonlight, and Calypso Coral inks for the blending. The grass image is from the Grassy Grove stamp set, the birds are from the Waves of Inspiration, and the greeting is from the Heartfelt Hellos stamp set. Iridescent Pearls finish off the card.
