Heartfelt Creations Alumni May Blog Hop

Hello friends! Welcome to another Heartfelt Creations Alumni Blog Hop! Spring is here and I really wanted to share a fun "garden-like" card. I created a long skinny card, this one is 3.5" top x 6" long.

Here are the details:

  • Create a card base from Texture light blue cardstock. 3.5" x 6".
  • Cut a piece of yellow textured cardstock and patterned paper from Sun Kissed Paper Collection, add a piece of yellow cardstock on top and add zig-zag stitches. Add panel to card base.
  • Stamp birdhouse image from Spring Season Set in black ink on White cardstock. colored image with markers. Here I used Spectrum Noir.
  • Cut image and mat it with a piece of yellow cardstock. Add  straight stitches. Add piece to card base.
  • Stamp open leaf and color it with markers. Die-cut it with coordinated dies.
  • Stamp Sun Kissed Fleur flowers on Purple vellum, die-cut them with Sun Kissed Fleur Die.Mount 3 flowers and add it to card. Add pearl to flower.
  • Die-cut a little butterfly from Garden Romance Die set, add it to image.

    LOVE THE CARD! I love the detail of two diff. kinds of stitching. The colors of bottom layer and middle layer is outstanding with the color combination. The flower is beautiful with the highlights or dew drops and pearl for effect. All the birdhouse needed was a little birdie on top.

    What a sweet crisp card. I really like the stitching. I guess you took this to your sewing machine? That's really nice. I like how you did the layers of different papers. The Purple flower is gorgeous. I came out perfect. Beautiful Creation.
