Best Wishes

Hi Lovelies..

Today I've used another of my bargain bundle of dies that have no brand.  This time I thought this die was perfect to create a shaker card with.  

I die cut it from a rectangle card base that I'd previously cut with a stitched die.  The die set comes with the loose flowers to be placed on the top of the panel.  I adhered some acetate to the back of the die cut, then found a bit of rainbow coloured card that I'd previously coloured in my box of bits. It was perfect for the background behind the flowers.  I sprinkled some tiny gems and sequins onto the acetate, then adhered the coloured background with very narrow foam tape.  I adhered it into the space left on the card panel... then onto my card base.  I added the loose flower petals and popped some gems into their centres.  Lastly added a die cut sentiment along the edge of the floral panel.

Hi Lovelies...

For my card today, I've used a flower die that was part of a bundle I got from a charity shop - so I have no name I'm afraid!  But I love the shape of the flowers, and set about using Distress Oxides on a blending brush to colour them.

I used Saltwater Taffy and Candied Apple for the flowers, and Peeled Paint for the stems. Then I layered the flower heads up using a bit of foam tape between to give depth and glue along the edges.  I had also shaped the top flower.

Then I used my crimper tool to create a panel of white, layered with gold mirri card, then onto my card base. I adhered the flowers, then decided on using the birthday word across the panel.  I'd cut it in white with a gold shadow.
