Farewell Pretty Peacock!

 Farewell Pretty Peacock!

I will sure miss Pretty Peacock. I just had to make one more card using it. 

This card is also my design for the Freshly Made Sketches this week.

I started with a Pretty Peacock card base, then a layer of Basic White then another layer of Pretty Peacock that I embossed using the Tasteful Textiles 3D Embossing Folder.

I glued a Gold Hoop onto the card front then I added a large detailed Shimmery White Card Stock butterfly die cut from Brilliant Wings. I added a double bow and a sentiment. 

I hope you enjoyed todays card!

Spring Floral Card

 Spring Floral Card For Freshly Made Sketches Challenge

I missed out on the last few sketch challenges at Freshly Made Sketches, I didn't want to miss out this week!! 

I used a few "Sneak Peek" items from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalogue. Can you spot them?

The new catalogue launches on May 4th, 2021!!

The stamp set is "Elegantly Said" and the Card Stock is "Fresh Freesia", one of the new 2021-2023 In-Colours. I also used the "Fresh Freesia Stampin' Blends". 

I started with a card base of Thick Basic White Card Stock, 8 1/2" x 7" and scored at 4 1/4".

Cut a piece of True Love Designer Series Paper to 3 3/4" x 6 1/2" and attached it to the card base.

Cut a piece of Fresh Freesia C/S to 5 3/4" x 3". Stamp the flower from "Elegantly Said" using Fresh Freesia Ink repeatedly onto the panel. Attach to the DSP layer.

Cut a piece of Basic White C/S to 5 1/4" x 2 1/2". Emboss using the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder. Wrap some Purple Posy Playing With Patterns Ribbon around the bottom of the panel. I attached it to the back with some tape. Attach this panel to the Fresh Freesia panel.

Cut 2 pieces of Fresh Freesia C/S to 2 1/4" x 1/4" and attach 1 above the ribbon and 1 below the ribbon.

Cut a 1/4 X 6 1/2" strip of True Love DSP and attach it to the left hand side.

Fussy (hand) cut a flower bouquet from the True Love DSP and colour using Stampin' Blends. Sprinkle with some Wink Of Stella. I also added a few white dots inside the flower centers using my White Stampin' Chalk Marker. Attach to the card front using Dimensionals.

Add a bow using the Purple Posy Ribbon, attach with a Glue Dot.

Die cut a small detailed butterfly using Basic White C/S and the Brilliant Wings Dies. Attach using a Glue Dot.

Add some Rhinestones to finish off the card.

Gilded Leafing Floral Card

Gilded Leafing Floral Card

This card is very ornate! I did have fun playing with the Gilded Leafing. My cards tend to be more simple, so this is for me, a very detailed design! I think I like it......LOL!

  

Directions:

I started with a card base of Basic Black Card Stock, 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" and scored at 4 1/4".

Cut another piece of Basic Black C/S to 4" x 5 1/4" and emboss using the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder.

Using your VersaMark Ink Pad, gently rub some ink over the embossed surface. Then sprinkle with the Heat And Stick Powder and tap off excess. Heat set until the powder turns clear. Then rub on some Gilded Leafing. I use a stiff paint brush to pick up and move my leafing around and gently rub off the excess. Attach this panel to the card base using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue.

Fussy cut some flowers out of the True Love Designer Series Paper. You can even use partial flowers, once they are tucked behind the other full flowers you can't tell. Colour the flowers and leaves using Stampin' Blends. I used; Daffodil Delight, Bermuda Bay, Highland Heather and Misty Moonlight. Attach flowers to the card base. I used Dimensionals on some and Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue on others. 

Die cut a small detailed butterfly from Brilliant Wings Dies using Gorgeous Grape C/S. Attach to the card using Glue Dots. Add 3 Rhinestones and a gold bow from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo.

I also sprinkled on some Wink Of Stella for even more sparkle! 

I hope you enjoyed todays card. Click on any of the supply list photos for shopping. Leave me a comment and let me know what you think! Thanks!
