What on earth are Sweet Strawberry Buttercups I hear you ask?
Well, they are buttercups made using the Sweet Strawberry Bundle (Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set and Strawberry Builder Punch).
There are lots and lots of buttercups around at the moment and this inspired me to create a project. My most recent Top Tips, Tricks & Techniques video on YouTube talks about taking inspiration from the world around you. That’s just what I did here.
I just had to use the Expressions in Ink Specialty DSP again and this helped me to choose Just Jade and Mint Macaron for my colours. Daffodil Delight is the colour I chose for my interpretation of buttercups.
The Sweet Strawberry Bundle provides the flowers and sentiment and the Layering Diorama Dies create the shaped pieces. I’ve used them in a non-layering way here, choosing to rotate one 180 degrees.
Leaves are from the Symmetrical Stems Border Punch. I know they are nothing like buttercup leaves, but it’s inspiration, rather than precision for this project!
A length of gold Simply Elegant Trim is looped between the layers before the top layer is raised using Dimensionals. This coordinates with the gold running through the DSP beautifully.
Finally, sequins from the Expressions in Ink Ephemera Pack add a touch of sparkle.
Are you a fan of this DSP? I think it has to be one of my favourites from the Annual Catalogue.
