Hello and welcome to the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop where we are sharing projects inspired by a sketch. I have used the pretty Textured Florals Bundle to make a slimline birthday card.
The colours used in this project are:
To recreate the floral slimline card, you will need:
Berry Burst card base – 8” by 8” – scored at 4” Basic White card – 8” by 2” Distressed Gold dsp – 8” by ¼” x 2 Basic White card – 7⅞” by 3⅛” – for the inside Scrap Basic White card Using a Trimmer I cut a 1” strip from the front of the Berry Burst card base.
I used the Scalloped Contour Dies to die cut the scalloped border from the 8” by 2” strip of Basic White card and adhered it, using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to the inside of the Berry Burst card front.
I added the strips of Distressed Gold dsp along the edge of the scalloped border on both the inside and outside of the card.
The large flowers, from the Textured Floral stamp set were stamped onto scrap Basic White card in a variety of colours and I ended up using the ones stamped in Blackberry Bliss, Berry Burst and Bubble Bath.
The leaves were stamped in Garden Green ink and the small flowers in Pool Party ink. The flowers and leaves were then die cut using the Textured Floral Dies. I used liquid glue to adhere the eaves to the large flowers before adding them to the card front on Dimensionals. The small Pool Party flowers were then tucked into place. I used a dotty stamp from the Beautiful Balloons stamp set and Berry Burst ink to add texture to the card front.
The sentiment, from the Artistically Inked stamp set was stamped in Berry Burst ink onto scrap Basic White card, trimmed down and added to the card with liquid glue. A scattering of Festive Pearls completed the card.
