Amazing Paper Grace Birthday Roses

I have another birthday card to share with you today featuring some fabulous old and new Amazing Paper Grace dies. Becca’s dies have such a timeless elegance to them and I love to mix and match them to create beautiful and elegant cards. Today I have mixed a gorgeous filigree border die from the Amazing Paper Grace Bella Clair Border Dies with the Amazing Paper Grace Hemstitch Rectanges Dies and the stunning floral frame from the Amazing Paper Grace Tallulah Frill Dies to create a beautiful base card for a handcrafted floral bouquet. The elegant sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Elegant Occasions Hot Foil Sentiments was perfect to finish the card.

Dies were provided by Amazing Paper Grace for today’s creations.

My Project

I have created a base card of 5 1/2″ x 6″ and layered some pearlised white card. I have then added the decorative borders to the side of the card before adding the rectangles from the Hemstitch Rectanges Dies to the centre of the card. To finish the card base I have die cut three pretty floral borders from the Tallulah Frill Dies, stacked them together and then added them to the centre of the rectangle.

I have made the ferns from using the stems from the Primrose Heart Facade Dies and the leaves from the Layered Cherry Blossoms Dies which I have cooured using Copic markers. I have handcrafted the roses and leaves using special flower shaping paper using dies from the Candlewick Rosebuds Dies and the sepals are from the Cinch and Go Flowers III Dies. The blue flowers are from the Petite Floral Potpourri Dies and

To finish I added a silver hot foiled sentiment from the Elegant Occasions Hot Foil Sentiments and some pearls to the centres of the flowers on the decorative die.

A video tutorial is coming shortly to my YouTube channel.

Amazing Paper Grace Floral Garden Birthday

I am getting low on birthday cards and I was inspired to create this birthday day from a card I saw on Instagram. I loved that it was all white with a pop of colour in a circle with sweet birds on an ink blended background. My family are big cat lovers and today I have mixed and matched different flower and leaf dies with the sweet little cat from the Amazing Paper Grace Make a Scene collection by Becca Feeken to create a lovely garden scene of flowers with a cute little cat amongst them. This card is quite easy to make and you could use so many different motifs to personalise the card to your tastes. I am fairly new to ink blending and I had so much fun with it and was really pleased with the result.

I will have a video tutorial on my YouTube channel shortly and will link it here when done.

Dies were provided by Amazing Paper Grace for today’s creations.

My Project

For my card today I have created a 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ top hinged base card from white cardstock. I have added a frame using the Amazing Paper Grace Rectangle Fluted Classics Dies with foam tape. I then die cut a circle using the circle die from the Amazing Paper Grace Circle Fluted Classics Dies out of masking paper and then added this to some spare white cardstock. I ink blended the circle using light blue, yellow and green inks and then die cut the panel out using the inner die from the frame and inserted inside the frame. I die cut three circle frames using the small circle dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Circle Fluted Classics Dies from white cardstock. I added one frame to the ink blended circle then stacked two circle frames together before adding them to the frame on the card with foam squares.

I then die cut all the flowers from coloured cardstock as well as the leaves and flower stalks and the cat using dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Rolling Along Scene Dies and the Picture Perfect Windows Scene Dies I added the stalks and leaves to the inside of the circle with the leaves flowing over the edge. I added the flowers and popped the little cat among the flowers with a foam square.

I die cut three sentiments from the Amazing Paper Grace Celebrations Scene Dies, stacked them together and adhered them under the circle.

To finish I have made a vellum butterfly from the Amazing Paper Grace Summer Label Motifs Dies and added it to the frame of the circle as shown.

Amazing Paper Grace Apple Blossoms With Love

My favourite season of the year is Spring because it heralds warmer and sunnier weather and lots of flowers and beautiful scents! Today my card has been inspired by spring and apple blossoms are just the embodiment of spring. The soft pink flowers just waft in the gentle spring breeze and brings lots of bees to pollinate (as well as pretty butterflies) so we can have apples in the autumn!

I love making flowers using Amazing Paper Grace dies and have used a mix of older dies and newer dies to create this card. I love the little flower die from the Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month – March 2020 Elegant Infinity as it can be used in so many different ways. Here I have paired the flowers with the leaves and branches from the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Cherry Blossom dies to create a branch of apple blossoms and added them to a gorgeous decorative background. I love this sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace With Love Regalia die and it makes this card perfect for Mother’s Day or any other occasion to show your love.

Dies were provided by Amazing Paper Grace for today’s creations.

My Project

For my card I have created a side folding 5″ x 7″ card base and added layers of gold and cream cardstock. I have die cut a pretty decorative frame out of cream cardstock using the Amazing Paper Grace Eyelet Lace Frame Die. I have backed this decorative frame with a gold frame and added it to the card front with foam tape. I have then die cut the gorgeous decorative lattice using the dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Emmeline Treillage Dies. I adhered it to the discarded cream panel from the decorative frame and then trimmed the edges before adding this to the inside of the frame.

For the apple blossom branches I die cut the branches from the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Cherry Blossoms Die out of white cardstock and green cardstock. I coloured the white cardstock with brown alcohol markers and then adhered these to the green branches. After I coloured the edges with brown alcohol markers I then adhered them to the card coming down from the top right of the card.

The flowers have been made using the larger flower die from the Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month – March 2020 Elegant Infinity. I made some open flowers and some buds and used some small stamens from my stash which were perfect here. Apple blossoms tend to be in bunches so I have created some bunches using a combination of open flowers and buds. The leaves have been die cut using the leaf dies from the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Cherry Blossoms Die out of green cardstock and added to the branches. The leaves are also in bunches on apple trees and I have tried to do the same here.

The sentiment is from the Amazing Paper Grace With Love Regalia Dies and I have die cut three dies – one from gold and two from white cardstock. These have been stacked together with the gold die on top and adhered to the bottom right inside the frame.

I could not resist putting a pretty vellum butterfly from the Amazing Paper Grace Butterfly Bliss Garden Shutters Die on this card but a bee from the Amazing Paper Grace Just Bee-cause Hot Foil Plate in gold would have been great too. The pink on the butterfly tied in well with the colour of the flowers.

To finish I added some pearls to the flowers on the frame and the centre of the flowers inside the frame.

Scroll past the photos for a list of the products I have used.

I have a video tutorial on my YouTube channel on how I have created this card here:
