Floral Cards

Hello

Hope you are having an enjoyable day.

This first card is a white base layered with patterned paper. The fancy frame, from Marianne Designs, has been die cut in white card and the edges shaded. The centre piece of the frame was die cut and stamped, then layered on top. The flowers are created using Tim Holtz small Tattered Florals dies, shaped and assembled, with the leaves and fixed to the front. Gems and glitter glue were added.

The above two cards are the same card in two colourways. I changed the background die shape, the sentiment and the paper and ink colours. Papers, Stamps and dies from Kaszazz. Stamping was done with Archival ink, the shading with Distress ink, and the die cut birds and paper flowers were coloured with alcohol ink markers.

Gems and Wink of Stella glitter pen completed the designs.

Till next time

Centre Step Birds & Blooms, Heartfelt Creations

Hello

Hope you are having a good day.
This centre step card features papers, stamps and dies from Heartfelt Creations, Birds and Blooms collection.

The step base was papered with 2 layers of card panel papers. The front panel was papered with a card front panel, to which I added a die cut circle frame in dark green. I stamped, coloured (with distress inks), and die cut the leafy branches and flowers, and arranged these, along with a die cut tag from the papers, across the front base of the card.
The butterflies were highlighted with glitter gloss pen on the wings and glossy accents on the bodies.
Liquid pearls were added to the printed flower centres and gems to the die cut flowers. Stickles glitter glue highlights the flowers. Gems were also added to the circular frame and the top corners of the centre step panel.

A paper panel and sentiment strip were added to the inside of the card for a personal greeting.

I hope you enjoy this card.

Till next time

The box front has been stamped and coloured and a die cut scalloped circle frame added to the aperture. Paper panels have been added for a greeting.

This card has a sunray die cut panel layered on to rainbow linen paper, then sunflower coloured card, before adding to the card base. Die cut and coloured, layered sunflowers, seeds and die cut leafy accent flourishes were attached above a lacy paper strip, and a ticket greeting and die cut lady bug added.
