Sending a hug Archives - Crafty-rootes

I have loved the Flowers Fair stamp set and am sad to see it on the last chance list. I have used it today to make a pretty, floral card.

Colours used to make this card:

I created the purple fair flowers card using the following supplies:

Highland Heather card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Soft Sea Foam dsp – 4⅛” by 3”
Basic White dsp – 6” by 2¼”
Basic White – 6” by 4½”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Misty Moonlight

I mounted the large floral stamp onto the Stamp Positioner plate and stamped it onto the Highland Heather card front using Highland Heather ink.

From the Basic White strip measuring 6” by 2¼” I die cut two labels using the Perennial Postage Dies. These were glued to the piece of Soft Sea Foam card which was then adhered to the Highland Heather card front.

I stamped the image again onto the 6” by 4½” panel of Basic White card with Secret Sea ink before fussy cutting out two of the flowers using my sharp Detailed Scissors.

The flowers were coloured using the Highland Heather and Softy Sea Foam Blends Pens.

The coloured flowers were then added to the labels using Dimensionals.

Using the Hot Foil System and some of the Silver Hot Foil I foiled the sentiments onto scrap Misty Moonlight card and die cut them out using the co-ordinating dies. This was added to the card front on Dimensionals.

A trio of Antique Pearls and a White Baker’s Twine bow finished the card.
