This is another floating frame card - or cards, as you get two for one with this lovely technique, which makes all the effort worthwhile.
I've stamped various leaves from Rooted in Nature in Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie... although in retrospect, I think using three colours makes it easier to space them out evenly.
Check out this post for my workaround if you don't have Press ’n’ Seal.
Ever since I saw the Floating Frame card concept, I've wanted to give it a try... so you can imagine my disappointment when I discovered I needed a mystery product called Press ’n’ Seal. I’ve since discovered you can buy it on Amazon but a) I don’t need a whole roll and b) apparently it’s not a perfect solution after all.
But back to my workaround... I tried a few different things and eventually settled on lightly spraying some Craft Mount (spray mount) onto a piece of vellum. This was too sticky so I removed some of the tackiness by laying it, sticky side down, onto a microfibre cloth. Just once. Twice made it not sticky enough!
Then you die-cut the frame and add Stampin’ Dimensionals to every separate piece before gently prising the vellum away. I won’t go into huge detail as plenty of demonstrators have already made a better job of it with video tutorials.
Suffice to say it’s a time-intensive, fiddly project but on the plus side, you do get two for the price of one.
