Daisy Mum in a Bottle



Hello My Crafty Friends,

Today I have a card that was inspired by a picture I saw on Facebook. This is the inspiration pictur



Inspiration Picture

My card is 5" X 6-1/4" created from white cardstock cut 10" X 6-1/4" scored at 5".

The bittersweet is something I like to make ahead so the Nuvo Drops have time to dry well. Susan has how to video on the berries here

The brown bottle was created using Shrink Film. First I cut bottle on Cricut at 8" then traced onto Shrink Film then colored using a brown Copic Marker. Using Heat Tool I shrunk it down it measures 3-1/2".

Pattern paper was cut 4-1/2" X 5-7/8" then adhered to card front with clear Double Sided Adhesive.

The largest die in the Petite Picot Rectangle set was used along with the next to the largest A2 Matting Basic A die set to create a frame. I set the matting die inside the Picot Rectangle taped together and cut from white cardstock. Frame was adhered over pattern paper using Art Glitter Glue Dries Clear.

I cut 1 Daisy Mum from white cardstock the tiny center flowers were cut from yellow cardstock and leaves were cut from green cardstock. Susan has a YouTube video for the Daisy Mum found here.

For stem I freehanded one from green cardstock then adhered to back of bottle with a little Kids Choice Glue then a bit more glue used to attach bottle to card front.

Using Kids Choice Glue flower, bittersweet and leaves were added.

Lady bug was cut, colored and shaped then added to leaf. Nuvo Crystal Glaze was used to make it shine.

One Of Susan's New Autumn Quotes was used for sentiment stamped in black then die cut.

Thank you for stopping by I do hope that this has inspired you to create!

Below I have linked supplies that I have used to create my card. If you click on an icon it will take you to Linkdeli then you click again on icon it will take you to the merchant. If you buy through my links I make a small commission at no added cost to you it just helps me to replenish my supplies.

Good Morning Everyone!  Sorry it has been so long since I have posted but I have been busy getting ready to go to Creative Keepsake Convention and then going to convention. I had a great time taking classes, shopping, eating and enjoying great friends. My post today is using one of Susan's Garden new dies and one of Karen Burniston's pop up dies.  It was hard to get a good clear picture because of the shine from the glitter. Card base is an A2 size card (4-1/4 X 5-1/2) 1.  Panel is made by using Karen Burniston's accordion rectangle die.  Attach a piece of sticker paper  4-1/2 X 5-3/4 to a pc of white cardstock the same size using clear double sided adhesive. Cut 1 frame from this.  Cut the rectangle and tabs from center of frame and the long tab on the left edge of the frame. Run this frame through Sizzix machine using Hearts Entwined embossing folder (or other embossing folder of your choice)  Peel the paper from the front of the frame ( protective paper covering adhesive

Family Birthday Cards

Welcome my crafty friends! Today I have a couple birthday cards I did for our grandson and my hubby.  Our grandson and hubby share their birthday - grandson was best birthday gift ever. Our grandson turned 18 and he loves to fish he has a boat and fishes when he is not working.  Hubby turned 79 and loves his John Deere tractor.   Cards are both 6" X 6" and I used a combination of dies and Cricut to make my cards. The pop up mechanism was same for both it was an old die set of Karen Burniston when she was with Elizabeth Craft Designs - Bathtub Pop Up.  Another time I would reshape the bathtub into a boat but I had already hand cut the boat then went looking for a die set that had a pop up mechanism to use kind of like putting the cart before the horse. KB Riley  1003  Word 2 Birthday, 1031 Numbers and 1049 Camping Charms  were used.  The fisherman, fish and the silhouette of boat and fisherman were cut on Cricut.  Hooked On Fishing was  cut from a top strip of design paper fro

  Hello my crafty friends! Another Breast Cancer Survivor card that I created in October.  Once again I used Spellbinders Susan's Garden Sunflower, Acacia and Berry Branch and for this card Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace Lisette Oval Shadowbox Frame die set. My card base is 5" X 7" made from 100# white cardstock.  Embossed layer is 4-3/4" X 6-3/4" white cardstock.  I used a swiss dot embossing folder (it is an old 8-1/2" X 11" embossing folder - I have used it so much it is taped together now).  This piece was attached to card front using Clear Double Sided Adhesive .  Using the Lisette Oval Shadowbox Frame 2  largest dies I cut 1 from pink cardstock adhered to card front using Bearly Art Glue.   I printed sentiment on white cardstock then die cut using the next 2 dies from Lisette die set then attached to card front using dimensional tape. Susan's Garden Sunflower S4-1177 from Garden Favorites Release was cut from Susan's Specialty
