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.

Jelly Fish Punch Art

 Jelly Fish Punch Art

I have been seeing lots of these adorable little sea creatures made with the Tulip Builder Punch or the Ice Cream Cone Builder Punch and I just had to make some! Once you start it's hard to stop! This punch would also be great for octopuses.

I used my design for the Freshly Made Sketches challenge. 

Isn't he just the cutest little guy ever!!! 

I started with a card base of Calypso Coral cut to 4 1/4" x 11" and scored at 5 1/2". 

The basic White layer is 4" x 5 1/4", attach to card base.

The Pacific Point Card Stock is cut to 3 3/4" x 5". 

I cut 3 strips of paper from the Whale Of A Time Designer Series Paper and using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue attached them to the Pacific Point C/S at an angle. Trim off any pieces that hang over. 

Emboss this panel using the Seabed 3D Embossing Folder then attach to the Basic White panel. 

Die cut a Basic White circle from the Stitched Shapes Dies. Stamp the sentiment onto the circle using Memento Black Ink then emboss the circle using the Seabed 3D Embossing Folder. Attach the circle to the card front using Dimensionals. 

Punch out a tulip/jelly fish using the Tulip Builder Punch and a piece of the Whale Of A Time Designer Series Paper.

Colour the jelly fish with Wink Of Stella.

Glue on 2 Wiggly eyes and draw a tiny mouth with a Basic Black Stampin' Blend.

On the back of the jelly fish, attach a small strip of Tear And Tape and stick 4 pieces of ribbon for the tentacles to it. If the ribbon you use is too wide, cut it in half lengthwise. 

Attach the jelly fish to the Basic White circle using Dimensionals. 

Add some Rhinestones and lots of Whale Of A Time Sequins to finish off the card.

Here are a few other cards I made using the same technique. 

Such goofy eyes!!

Have fun making your own jelly fish!!

Happy Stamping and Creating!
