Carnation & Mock Orange in Shadowbox Frame

 


Hello my crafty friends!

Today I have created a shadowbox frame card and used the Carnation S4-1325 and Mock Orange S3-496 from Spellbinders Susan's Garden new release Through the Arbor for the bouquet along with Berry Branch S4-1320 Autumn Foliage from Birds & Bees Garden Collection.  Paper is Mintay - Bohemian Wedding MT-BOH-04.  This card is a bit busier than what I normally do but I liked the paper and the color of the Carnation just matched so well.

Susan did a "Live back on April 5, 2023 for making this frame card you can find the video here https://www.facebook.com/SusansGardenClub/videos/433190574264552
I added a circle in center of frame for backdrop of the bouquet.

For the bouquet I used Spellbinders Susan's Garden Specialty Paper to cut 1 Carnation and 8 Mock Orange Flowers.  The Mock Orange stems/leaves were cut from 140# watercolor paper. I cut the Berry Branch from green cardstock then added Styrofoam balls that were colored with RV69 Copic alcohol reinkers.  Alcohol markers were used to color the Carnation and the stamens for the Mock Orange.  Susan's Deluxe Tool Kit was used to shape flowers and leaves.  Susan's YouTube videos are linked below.

Kids Choice Glue was used to build the flowers and add to inside of frame.

Spellbinders Stampendous Fran's Frames S6-218 were used for then sentiment piece,

Thanks for Stopping by today I hope I have inspired you to make a shadowbox frame card.

Until next time - Happy Creating!

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.
