My post for you today is using Friend Like You and the coordinating dies, Friendly Silhouette Dies.
I really like this set, particularly the dies that match. It has some very nice grass, palm trees and very, very cute little dragon flies. Here is a card that I stamp lifted from Fiona Whitten on Pinterest. Did she not design a fabulous card? Her card turned out a little nicer, but here is my take.
I think it would make a great male birthday card.
Here are some details:
Card base is Crumb Cake 8 1/2 x 5 1/2
Layer Soft Suede 5 1/4 x 4
White layer 5 x 3 3/4
The white is scored at 1/4 and 1/2 on all edges.
Stamp the grass side by side in Granny Apple Green about an inch from the bottom. Then stamp the tops of the grasses in soft suede. This is a polymer set so it is easily lined up. Love it!
Using the dies, cut the grass out from Granny Apple Green. Set your die on the edge of the cardstock before cutting so you don't have to trim. (Thanks, Fiona for that tip!)
Using your dark soft suede stampin blend, color the cattail tops. Cut your grass down to fit your image. Add the sentiment using Soft Suede.
Finish the front by stamping some dragonflies in Coastal Cabana and cutting them out with the dies. Aren't they adorable? Love the dragonflies! The die cuts out two at a time, one just a little smaller. I adhered them using the mini stamp dimensionals cut in half.
I used the grass that I trimmed off of the front to add a little extra on the inside.

Hope you like the card. Thanks for stopping by.
