Finally, I have come to the end of my birthday cards made from the glorious flowers I hand-cut from Favored Flowers Designer Series Paper! I hope you have enjoyed seeing the cards I came up with.
Onto the grid-patterned background paper, I layered a piece of Mossy Meadow card that I'd cut using an Around the Bend Die. I glued down a number of hand-cut roses, trimmed the edges flush, then adhered this piece to a Fresh Freesia card layer.
In this photo you can better see the lovely stitched and embossed detail that the Around the Bend Die provides:
The sentiment, from Go To Greetings, was stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink on Basic White card, and cropped with a Potted Succulents sentiment die. I added a Fresh Freesia Open Weave Ribbon bow, and some In Color Opal Rounds to finish off the design.
Oh dear ... it is only now that I have blogged this card, that I see the smudged ink on the sentiment piece. I guess it just reinforces "handmade"!
