Welcome 2018!

Hello friends, this is my first project for 2018 and its with happy heartfelt Wednesday.We are still celebrating Carnations that was debuted this month and here I have 2 versions of it.

Instructions

The final card measures 5.5” x 5.5”. Start by scoring and cutting a white card stock that measures 5.5”x11”, score at 5.5” and create the card base. Cut a 5.3”x5.3” pattern paper from the Paper collection and adhere to the card base. For the front card base take a water color paper which measures 5”x5”.Take any stencil of your choice and create a stencil background using some texture paste. Heat set and sprinkle some water to wet the surface. Later on an acrylic block splash some salty ocean, peacock feather and Broken China distress ink. Use these colors to splash the stenciled background. Once you receive the desired look heat set the surface.Stamp and die cut some large and small Carnation by stamping using Cobalt Archival Ink. Color the flowers using broken china and shape the petals using 3D basic flower shaping molds. Shade the leaves using the crushed olive distress ink. Stamp and die cut some filler leaves using the broken china and cobalt ink and keep it white. 

I have another fridge Magnet using the camellia Carnation which is made using the same collection.

Fold out Foam Carnations

Good Morning Friends, With a Merry Christmas just gone by, I am back with another Heartfelt Creations today! In today's card I have used the fold out cards and some newly launched foam flower. The fold out cards are so much fun to work with,

For today's card here's how I have created with some foam carnations and fold out technique.

Instructions

Start by taking a Kraft flip fold card layout. Measure patterned paper at 1/8" less than the card and distress the edges. There are 2 layers in each of the fold which measure 1/8" less. Stamp some small and large carnation using Plum and leaf archival ink from white foam paper. Shade and color the petal using Crushed Olive and Wilted Violet distress ink. The edges are re-inked once the petals and leaves are shaped.

Die cut a decorative border from white card stock and tuck it in every layer between the card base and the pattern paper. To shape the foam flowers, I used a press which allows the petals to bend automatically and then we can shape it. Layer the petals, pierce the centers and add the stamens.

To arrange the bouquet, use some twigs, pearls and leaves and assemble all the shaped flowers and leaves. Adhere as shown. To finish the card fussy cut tags and sentiments from the paper collection and distress the edges with frosted powder.
