Thank You Flowers

 Hello Friends

IT'S NEW RELEASE TIME!  The collection is called Flowers and More.   The unique thing about this release is that there are fewer pieces in each of the dies.  So they go together really quickly and easily! 

I noticed I was getting low on Thank you cards. So I decided the flowers in this release are so pretty they would make a beautiful thank you! I used Flower 5 and Leafy Branches 1, 2 and 3.  My inspiration for this card was one by Barbara Anders that I found on Pinterest.

Designer Steps:

1.  Using an A2 white card base splatter the card with black.  I used a watered down black acrylic paint

2.  Cut out a white doily with the Tea Time Doily then splatter it with the same black mixture as the card base

3.  Use a black striped washi tape to line each side of the card

4.   Using the following dies Leafy Branch 1, 2, and 3 cut out the leaves in 2 different shades of green card stock.  Using the Flower 5 cut out the large and small flower in 3 shades of blue card stock.  Using the Garden Wheelbarrow cut out 6 of the small white flowers

5.  I cut a slit in the blue flowers between the petals and then cupped then with a stylus.  After I cupped them I pinched the petals to give them a little shape.  I also did this with the white flowers only on the small white flowers I glued 2 together for a little more strength

6.  For the centers I used white Prills which I dyed yellow with some distress ink

7.  Cut two Thanks in black using the Thanks Expression die.  Glue the two Thanks toghether.  Glue the doily slightly to the right of center as shown above and then glue down the Thanks as shown

8.  Arrange the blue flowers and glue dot then down.  Tuck the leaves in and around the flowers.  Then add the small white flowers and your card is complete

Tulips

Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends,

I love tulips!  They are usually one of the first flowers to pop up in the spring! Signaling that the cold winter months are coming to an end.  My favorite tulips are yellow but the red come in a close second!

Design Steps:

1.  I used a black A2 card base, red card stock 4 x 5 1/4, and polka dot DP  3 3/4 x 5.  Glue the red card stock to the polka dot DP and set aside 

2.  Next cut out a piece of green card stock using the Spring Grass die.  Cut out a white rectangle using the Double Stitched Rectangle die 3rd from the largest.  Use a cloud stencil and blue ink to create the background.  Glue the cloud stitched rectangle onto a red rectangle layer

 3.  Using the Garden Wheelbarrow die cut out the pieces in red, black, silver, dark and light green, red and yellow

4.  Shade the pieces and then assemble them using a fine tip glue

5.  Next pop the cloud panel onto the polka dot DP add the grass then the wheelbarrow.  Then carefully arrange the tulips and glue them into the wheelbarrow.  Add the sentiment and glue to the black card base and your card is complete
