Hello everyone,
Oksana here with a bright floral card using the latest ‘Spring Blossom’ release from Paper Flowers. We’ll use stamps, heat embossing, and make some dimensional flowers to create this pretty card!
Step 1: Create a tent-fold card blank from white cardstock measuring 4 ¼” by 5 ¾” and cover the front with pink textured cardstock. Then, stamp the cherry blossom image using pink ink on a blank piece of soft-finish cardstock. When stamping, turn the stamp in different directions; this adds interest to the background and allows you to fill most of the space on the piece of card.
Step 2: Cut down the stamped piece to measure 4” by 5 ½”. Then gently ink around the edges using the same pink ink. This softens and blends in the edges. Adhere this to the card front.
Step 4: Stamp the Best Wishes sentiment onto white soft-finish cardstock using black ink and heat emboss using clear embossing powder. Die-cut the sentiment out using a label die. Create a mat from black cardstock and adhere the sentiment to it before cutting a mat from the same pink cardstock as earlier. The pink mat should fit the width of the card, and adhere all these to the card base.
Step 5: Die-cut a few of the cherry blossom flowers from white soft-finish cardstock. Blend pink ink around the edges on both sides and stamp the flower centre using light orange ink. Lightly spray with water and shape using a ball tool. When dry, adhere gems to the flower centers.
Step 6: Die-cut a bow using the same pink cardstock and glue it together. Make a double bow from gold string and attach it to the pink bow before adhering it to the card. To finish, adhere the flowers in place and add some no-hole sequins.
I hope you have been inspired to create this card using the products and techniques I have shared. Just by changing the sentiment, this card could be used for any occasion.
