So Grateful For You

Kia ora Koutou

Today sees the launch of another beautiful collection from Heartfelt Creations – Floral Sentiments.

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.

An Amazing Paper Grace Rainbow Birthday Card

I am relatively new to ink blending and and I have really enjoyed seeing all the beautiful rainbow coloured cards on Instagram. My card today has been inspired by a couple of cards in particular on Instagram that have featured gorgeous soft pastel blends and resist ink blending. For my card today I have hot foiled the Amazing Paper Grace Diamonetta Background Hot Foil Plate with Opal Foil and then ink blended a rainbow over the foiling and I was very pleased with the resist effect. I added a rectangle frame and then an oval frame for the flowers to sit on the card. I coloured the flowers in the pinks and yellows that I had used on the card to keep the colours in harmony. A sweet butterfly and a simple stamped and die cut sentiment finishes the card.

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

My Project

I have created a base card of 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ out of white cardstock. I hot foiled the diamond pattern using the Diamonetta Background Hot Foil Plate using Opal foil on white cardstock. I then ink blended a rainbow with Distress Oxide inks – colours listed below the photos and then die cut the rectangle using the largest plain edge die from the Postage Edge Squares dies and adhered this to the front of the card. I die cut two frames using the second largest postage edge square and the second largest plain edge dies from the Postage Edge Squares dies out of white cardstock. These were stacked together and adhered to the front of the card with foam strips. I die cut three decorative ovals using the small oval from the Double Halo Oval dies out of white cardstock. These were stacked together and adhered to the middle of the frame. A single inner was added to the middle of the frame.

For the flowers I have blended the yellow and pink inks on white cardstock and then die cut the flowers out using the dies from the Primrose Heart Facade Dies. These have been shaped and assembled and I have added the leaves, stems and base of the flowers die cut out of green cardstock. I then arranged the flowers and leaves around the oval on the bottom right of the card.

To finish I have stamped and die cut the sentiment from the Lyrical Layered Florals Clear Stamp and Die Set in black ink. I also die cut two plain dies and stacked the three dies together with the stamped image on top and adhered the sentiment to the centre of the oval using foam squares. The butterfly is from the Butterfly Bliss Garden Shutters and has been made from vellum coloured in the same colours used in the card and accented with gold trims.

Altenew Happy Birthday Roses

Kia ora Koutou

I have another birthday card to share with you today and this time I have a beautiful rose from Altenew. I love hot foiling and the Gilded Rose from Altenew is just beautiful when coloured with the coordinating stencils. I coloured the rose in my favourite pink colours and added some texture from an embossing folder and the gorgeous gold lace borders framed the rose beautifully.

My project

I have created a base card of 6″ x 6″ and layered gold and white cardstock for the base of the card. I have embossed the top later using the Diamond Plaid embossing folder from Altenew. I then hot foiled the rose on white card and coloured it with the pink inks using the coordinating stencils. I cut the rose out by fussing cutting and then trimmed one corner so it could fit into the corner of the card. I die cut two lace borders from gold cardstock and adhered them to the left and bottom as shown. I added the rose to the corner and then stamped and die cut the leaves in green from the Altenew Beautiful Day Stamp set and coordinating die and then added them to the rose. Some leaves I added behind the rose and some on top to create the depth and dimension of the rose. To finish I added a sentiment that has been hot foiled and die cut from the Spellbinders Be Bold Glimmer Sentiments and Die set.

Amazing Paper Grace Vellum Layered Cherry Blossoms

I am always looking for different ways to make flowers for my cards. I had made this pretty card using the Amazing Paper Grace Candlewick Classics Collection by Becca Feeken as a demonstration on how you can emboss these dies for an elegant finish for the Amazing Paper Grace – Encouragement Community on Facebook. I needed some delicate flowers to match the pretty background so I looked at the Amazing Paper Grace Layered Cherry Blossoms Dies and they were the perfect size for this card. This time I made the flowers from vellum and there is a tutorial in the Amazing Paper Grace – Encouragement Community. Click on this link and answer the questions to join this group for this tutorial and many others.

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

My Project

I have made a base card of 5″ x 5″ out of white cardstock. I have layered the Square Candlewick Classic die with the Round Doily and Circle Candlewick Classic dies to create the base for the flowers, sentiment and butterfly. I also put some pearlescent vellum behind the Round Doily to help this die stand out from the background.

I added the sentiment from the Amazing Paper Grace Elegant Occasions Sentiments Hot Foil Plate which had been reverse foiled with gold foil with some foam squares. I then added the flowers, leaves and branches to the right of the centre and sentiment. To finish I added a pretty butterfly from the Amazing Paper Grace Summer Label Motif Dies that has been made from vellum and given some sparkle with glitter. Finally I added some pink iridescent jewels to the centre of the flowers and around the sentiment.

Pink Fresh Studios Pink Roses and Butterflies Step Card

Kia ora Koutou

I have a very pretty feminine card to share with you today. I love my roses and I just had to get the Pink Fresh Garden Roses set including the stamp, die, and stencils. It is just stunning!! My inspiration has come from Yasmin Diaz who is an influencer for Pink Fresh Studio. I follow Yasmin Diaz on Instagram and on her blog and she shared the instructions on how to make a step card without complicated scoring and cutting. It is so easy to make and can be decorated in so many ways.

My Project

I have created the base card using the instructions from here out of white cardstock. I die cut a plain circle die from my stash out of white cardstock and then the circle out using the Stitched Circle dies. I die cut one inner circle and three outer circles and added them to the base circle and added them to the front of the card. I then just stenciled the roses using Gina K inks – Light Carnation, Medium Carnation and Dark Carnations for the roses and Light Spruce and Medium Spruce for the leaves. I die cut them out using the coordinating die and I then cut out another plain die and stacked the two dies together with the coloured image on top. I then trimmed the flowers and added them to the top right of the circle and bottom left of the circle. In the middle of the circle I added a hot foiled sentiment that could be personalised for many occasions.

To finish I hot foiled the small butterflies from the Small Butterfly Hot Foil Plate with gold foil and then coloured the butterflies with the inks from the Fairy Dust ink collection. I die cut the butterflies and added one to the top right and one to the bottom left. To finish I added some gold pearls for decoration.
