A Tale of Two Floral Cards

Can you tell I like flowers? LOL!

First up is a card made with the Bold Blossoms Stand Alone Die with a sentiment from Zipper Panel Die from Ellen Hutson. I used cheap watercolors to paint blobs of color where I planned to put the flowers and leaves. Then, I diecut the flowers and leaves from cream cardstock and glued them onto the card from made with watercolor paper. The next step is to glue the sentiment diecut from a scrap piece of black cardstock. All that is left to do is glue the front to a card base made from cream cardstock.

Next up is a card I made using Altenew's Vintage Roses stamp set. I stamped the innermost layer of the flowers with versamark and sprinkled gold embossing powder, then heat set it. Then I stamped all the layers of the flowers with various colors of dye ink, and fussy cut all of them. I arranged the flowers on the card front as I wanted, then stamped the leaves straight on to the card front and attached the flowers, popping the orange rose on the bottom with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment from Avery Elle's So Happy Stamp set on a scrap piece of cream cardstock, then heat embossed in gold and mounted to the card with foam tape.

Making Rose Wallpaper

I am still enjoying the Altenew Vintage Roses stamp set. Today I stamped the smallest rose all over the card front aka wallpapering. I masked an area for the sentiment with some post it tape, but the ink bled through. I had to cut a piece of yellow cardstock to cover it. The sentiment is from Paper Trey Ink (celebrate) and an old set from MFT (it's your birthday)

I think it works better with the yellow piece. I mounted it on a piece of dark blue cardstock, then attached to a white top folding card.
