Good morning!
This week's Daring Cardmakers challenge comes from Jenny, who wants us to feature our favourite florals on a card.
Well, I couldn't just pick one, but in general I'm really looking forward to peony season, especially seeing a particular favourite (Bowl of Beauty) appear in my mum and dad's garden.
So slightly inspired by that and big blooms in general I wanted to finally use a die set from The Stamp Market that I've had in my "to use" stash box on my desk for a while.
Sadly many attempts to get a decent photo resulted in a not so great photo from the bunch, but this card does look a lot better in person. Promise!
Stamp: The Stamp Market - Everyday Greetings
Dies: The Stamp Market - Everyday Greetings, The Stamp Market - Big Bloom
I cut the flowers and leaves from various colours of cardstock by The Stamp Market and linked them up on the white cardstock panel I was going to use.
I then used a piece of Press and Seal to keep everything in place so I could glue down the flat pieces and pop up one of the flowers on 3D foam tape.
I trimmed the flat florals on the card edge and mounted it on a grey card base.
Then I added the stamped sentiment, and finally used clear Nuvo drops to add details to the flower centres and in between the leaves.
Make sure you check out the wonderful projects from the rest of the design team here, and play along if you can!
Happy crafting!
