Double Peony & Spirea





Hello my fellow paper gardeners - welcome to my blog.

Today I have a card for you that I created using Susan's Garden Club / Spellbinders Spring Flora Collection.  I have chosen the Double Peony and Spirea along with some Ferns and Spellbinders Shapeabilities Nobel Chatelaine Etched Dies Vintage Treasures by Becca Feeken.

Card base was cut from 8-1/2 X 11 black cardstock scored at 5-1/2" using the largest die of the Nobel Chatelaine Etched Die Set laying it just above the fold taping in place with removable tape see picture (I used white cardstock for picture purposes).

   Using 3 largest dies from Nobel Chatelaine taped together cut from white cardstock.  Using the largest die cut 1 piece from Black cardstock adhere white die cut on top of black die cut using Bearly  Art Precision Glue then glue to front of card lining up edges (very top will extend a little above the fold). 

Susan's Garden Club Spring Release - Peony and Spirea were cut from Susan's Garden Specialty cardstock leaves were cut from green cardstock.  I cut 1 Double Peony and 1 bud coloring with Copic markers RV69 and R89.  Flowers were shaped and assembled using Susan's new Deluxe Tool Kit and her YouTube videos Peony here  Spirea here and Ferns here

Using Kids Choice Glue build arrangement on card front.

From white cardstock using next to 2 smallest dies in set cut 1.  Stamp sentiment using black ink and stamp from Susan's Garden Club Spring Quotes.  Adhere to inside of card using Clear Double Sided Adhesive.

Thank you for stopping by today I do hope that I have inspired you to create your own floral card.

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
