CARD
This set is so easy to work with – just die cut, stack layers and gorgeous flower is done! I made a card with a simple and (almost) clean design.
First I die cut elements for a couple of flowers and several leaves using the set out of a Cherry Blossom and Green Meadows Gradient Cardstock. Then I assembled the elements by stacking the layers using a liquid adhesive.
Then I die-cut a circle out of a white cardstock and adhered the die cut elements onto it, forming a floral cluster. Almost all elements were adhered flat, using a liquid adhesive. Only right flower I popped up to add more dimension.
Next I took a stripped sheet from the A Love For Stripes Set A 6X6 Paper Pack and teared a wide trip from it. Which after that I adhered onto a card base made out of a Moonrock Cardstock. Then I foam mounted the circle element onto the card.
Here I choose the Moonrock Cardstock for the card base to differentiate it from a pure white cardstock the circle was die cut out of. The color difference is minor, but it play its role – the card base and circle don’t “blend” together.
After that I made a sentiment strip white embossed on black using a stamp from the Thinking Of You Stamp Set and popped it up onto the card.
Lastly I added several Snow and Onyx Crystals.
