Stripy Floral cards

Here are 2 stripy floral cards made using a technique with Blends Alcohol Marker and a strip of card stock. I used both the positive and negative parts of the strip to make the cards.

Colours used in these projects are:

 

To recreate the Flowers on Stripy panel card, you will need:

Flirty Flamingo card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Smoky Slate – 5⅞” by 2¼”
Basic White – 5⅞” by 2”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾”

I used the light Mint Macaron, light Purple Posy, light Flirty Flamingo and light So Saffron Blends to draw lines from side to side all the way up the 2” strip of Basic White card. I choose to leave a thin white line between each colour to give some definition to each colour.

Using the Pierced Blooms Dies and the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine to cut 3 flowers from the stripy panel. I also die cut the same flowers from scrap Flirty Flamingo card.

I added the stripy layer to the Smoky Slate panel using Dimensionals and added the Flirty Flamingo die flowers into the negative space on Dimensionals as well. I used the same set of dies to cut some of the flower centres from scrap Basic White and added these to the centre of the flowers with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The panel was added to the Flirty Flamingo card base with the same liquid glue.

The sentiment from the Sweet Strawberry stamp set was stamped on the card front in Basic Gray ink  and I added Holiday Rhinestones to the centre of each flower.

I used the Be Mine dies cut a scalloped edge down the side of the Flirty Flamingo panel and added the Basic White strip. I used the liquid adhesive to add the panel to the front of the Mint Macaron card base.
