Hello and happy Wednesday! Time to share a little card project with you today. I´ve again used plenty of Elizabeth Craft Designs product on this one.
Here is how I created the card:
I first cut a piece of Soft Finish Cardstock into a size of 8×14 centimeters, then adhered this piece onto Clear Double Sided Adhesive and ran the paper thru a die cutting machine twice with the Alphabet 2 – Lower Case die cut die. I used some of the alphas for the “Love my Crazy Bunch” layout (see details here). I then removed all other alphas and saved them for a later project and only used the negative piece for this project.
Next I used various shades of blue Glimmer Mist to color the die cut piece.
After that I cut several white flowers from the Soft Finish Cardstock using the Bunch of Flowers 4 die cut die. Then I inked the edges of the flowers with light blue Distress Ink. The flowers remind me of one of my favorite spring flowers, Forget Me Not.
Now all I needed to do was to adhere the inked alpha piece into the middle of a white card base and add some yellow seam binding for additional decoration.
After that I added some rhinestones for additional interest. I used yellow, green and blue ones.
Then I layered the die cut flowers over each other and added some rhinestones in the middle.
I wanted to add some additional shine to the center of the flowers, so I applied some Glossy Accents and Warm Diamond Silk Microfine Glitter around the rhinestones. I let the glitter dry for a while and then just dabbed the residue away. In the end I just added a hand written sentiment to the card and it was done. Here are some detail photos of the finished card:
