Hey friends. Todays card creation comes form our designer, Dominique, who shared a BOLD Mother’s Day card at the beginning of the month. Today, she wanted to share a softer card with lots of layers. We love the scripty background that adds a sweet charm to this floral card. Follow along to create your own!
How to make this card:
- First, die cut the floral images from 5808-02D Build a Bloom Clematis Die set. I will be die cutting flow flowers using pink card stock. The little flower centers I will use dark brown. I’m also going to cut out all the pieces from 5811-03D Sunlit Blossoms Die set. For the branch, I will use the same dark brown that I used for the flowers centers, the leaves I will use a bright greenish-yellow die, and the little blossoms I will use a light yellow. Assemble your flowers, and set aside.
- Using your stamp positing tool, place the 3487-09 French Script BG stamp into the positioned. Ink your stamp with Fuchsia from Color Fuse Set #5 onto cream colored card stock.
- Now, take the largest die from 5806D Postage Stamp Nested Die set and die cut.
- Once cut, flip it over and add some liquid adhesive to the back. Then glue it down to a some pink card stock. I used a sheet of scrap card stock from flowers I had previously die cut. Then I trimmed off the excess.
- Next, add some double sided foam adhesive to the back of the flowers. Then start to build assemble your branch with your blooms and blossoms.
- Next, add some double side foam adhesive to the panel, and adhere that to a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card base. The card base I used, is the same color as the leaves.
- Lastly, remove the foam insert from your stamp positioning tool, then place your card inside of it. Select a sentiment from 3417 Mothers Day Set and arrange it to your desired position on the card. Next, stamp using Pecan ink from Color Fuse Set #3. I stamped this about 6 times, re-inking the stamp each time, just to make sure the ink was bold enough to stand out from the text background.
