Oriental Poppy & Berries Slimline

 


Welcome my crafty friends,

Today I have a slimline card I created featuring the Oriental Poppy from Susan's Garden Club Fall Flora release.   

The following picture was found on Facebook and was my inspiration for my card.



Card Base

Cut black cardstock 8" X 9" score at 4" fold on score line.  Karen Burniston's Long Rectangle Cross Hatch dies were used to cut white frame.  Pattern paper was cut to fit behind white frame adhering the frame onto pattern paper using Bearly Art Glue.  Clear Double Sided Adhesive was used to adhere white panel to card front.  The narrow red frame was cut using Picket Fence Slimline Die Cutting System then adhered using Bearly Art Glue.  The narrow black frame was cut using Karen Burniston's Long Rectangle Cross Hatch dies adhered to card front using Bearly Art Glue.

Berry Branch, Poppies and Eucalyptus

Susan has YouTube Videos for creating Berry Branch (Nuvo Crystal Drops - Berry Red was used for berries) and Eucalyptus can be found here.  On Berry Branch I only added berries where they would show so adhering the vase and Berry Branch together it would lay flat on back.  If you want Berry Branch could be added to vase before adding berries and set aside to dry.

YouTube Video for Oriental Poppy (Copic V09 was used to color poppies) can be found here.

Susan's Garden Specialty Paper is fantastic for creating all the wonderful flowers that she has designed.

Vase

Vase was cut on Cricut from heavy cardstock and colored with Copic 100 Black marker highlighted with white PanPastel.  Susan Large Ball tool from her Deluxe Tool Kit was used to give vase some shape.  Once Berry Branch is dry cut and adhere to vase.  Add dimensional dots to center back of vase and Kids Choice Glue around just edges of vase - leaving top opening free of glue adhere to card front

Kids Choice Glue was used to add arrangement to card.

Thank you for stopping by I do hope it has been inspirational to you.

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
