To start this pretty journey, divide your page
into 2 halves mentally. Using 5020J Pretty Posies loose flowers, size to 3-3/4" x
5-1/2". Then draw a rectangle, click on the
upper right ____ to make a curve and white out about 1" of the lower stems as shown.
Copy and paste to the 2nd half of the page.
(If you like you can place 2 bouquets on the second half or print the 2 halves twice.) I used
3 flower Bouquets.
Print on Hammermill® 100lb. White Coverstock
and color as desired.
I chose to use Copic® markers and a couple of
X-tra Fine Point Sharpies®. A full list of colors
are listed above. Color Three.
Using Spellbinder's® DOMAPG - Flourished Fleurt Die set, Center over one of the bouquets on a half page and run through your Big Shot®.
Edge the center image using VersaMagic® Pumpkin Spice as shown.
Using W1 fill in the shadows of the image.
Cut your Orange floral cardstock from your stash to 5"x7".
Place the Frame cut-out in the bottom of an empty trash can, face down. Spray the backside using Elmer's® Spray Craft Glue. Adhere the frame to the 5"x7" Orange floral cardstock from your stash.
Center the floral cut-out in the frame and adhere as shown.
Adhere the cardfront to the cardbase with the fold on the left.
Fussy cut the daisies from a second floral image.
Adhere the daisies over the daisies on the cardbase (Cut a couple of the smaller and outer petals off) using Foam Tape for dimension as shown.
Cut the sentiment using Tonic® Essentials -
Mixed Edge Layering Oval Dies and edge with VersaMagic® Pumpkin Spice. Adhere using
Foam® Tape.
On the backside of a small piece of EZ-Tear®
tape lay several layers of the Gold Twine.
Cut to length for the stems. Peel and adhere.
Tie a bow and adhere to the multi twine strip.
Wrap Gold Baker's Twine twice around the card spine/fold and tie a bow as shown.
Using Dimensional Glue randomly adhere a few Iridescent Sequins (4-5).
OPTIONAL: Using scraps, extra flowers and a name
plaque arrange and adhere to the backside of the cardbase.
I hope you enjoyed this little journey into cardmaking for today.
