Hi All, this is another piece I made for the Gecko Galz DT using a combination of Gecko Galz Floral Symphony paper and Vintage by Me
for the bird image.
For
this 5 x 7 card I printed the Floral Symphony paper and Vintage by me
image (twice) on to Staples matte photo paper. I fussy cut the daisy's
and mounted them with a foam dot, added some lace. I distressed the
image by tearing all 4 edges and a center split, I then rolled the
center split, added a piece of the image back in, I then used Ranger
distress ink on all the torn edges. I added glue and Flower Soft
flowers to the tear in the image and some straw and baby's breath above
the daisy's. I printed the envelope liner in the matching Floral Symphony paper on regular copy paper and glued it inside.
I am entering this into the challenge at Craft Hoarders Anonymous using the new items of the papers along with the lace, Flowersoft and baby's breath I have been hoarding for ages.
That's it, thanks for looking. ~Diane

ReplyDeleteDiane, you and I have used the same Floral Symphony paper, I scaled mine large enough to enable me to use it on two cards (not on my Blog as yet - I still have my crosspromotion project to share)
You captured Springtime on this beautiful card.

Hi Diane, a stunning card, love the colours and the way this gorgeous image is framed, Carole Z X
ReplyDeleteWow - fabulous and what great techniques. I studied the card for a long time , before I read your post, to try and work out how you did that cone of blossoms. That works soooo well. The baby's breath is a beautiful addition (I don't have any of that .....yet!) and the touch of lace is perfect.
ReplyDeleteVery Pretty Diane! I love the added touch the flower soft gives the card!
ReplyDeleteHi Diane, Your card is gorgeous. I love the little details you add which is what really gives it character. The bird image is so pretty. Love the pink lace. Who would not enjoy to receive a card like this. Your skills are amazing.
