Other Products used: Paper: Yellow Bazzill card stock x 1, SUP A4 Naturals White x 2 card stock, paper for masking. Spellbinders: Devine Eloquence S5-218, Labels Twenty-Eight S5-127. Ranger: Walnut Stain, Rusty Hinge, Forest Moss, Broken China, Peeled Paint distress ink. Foam ink tool, Paper distressing tool, Water color brush, Star dust stickles, Water mister, Other: Quelling tool, Black stamens x8, Seam binding ribbon, Pearl beads and thin craft wire. White and gold embossing powder, Heat gun. Versa Mark. 


Instructions: This card size is 21 cm x 14.7 cm. With the SUP A4 card stock, fold in half to make the card base. Trim to the card size. Chose the paper from the paper collection and cut to 20.5 cm x 14.2 cm. This will be your card front. Apply crystal Lacquer to the black swirls dividing the print on the paper, when dry, ravel the edges of the card front with the distressing tool. Taking the SUP A4 card stock and tuxedo black ink, stamp the image from HCPC 3663 My World. Use the HCPC 3598 World Map stamp and stamp positioner, this is to extend the stamped image at the top and bottom so the image will cover the whole frame size when cut.


 With the largest size from the Labels Twenty-Eight set, die cut the stamped image. Using the distress inks, add color to the stamped image. With the foam ink tool and Walnut Stain ink apply to the edges. Apply crystal lacquer to the My World words on the stamped image. To make the 3d world ball, apply tuxedo black ink to the world ball image on the stamp and stamp on SUP A4 card stock. Die cut this and 5 extra cuts. Stack and glue the paper cuts together. Apply color to the world ball. When the ink is dry, apply to the ball only a thick layer of crystal lacquer. Put aside to dry. Lift and twist the ball away from the world ball stand, so it is higher on one side. Apply a double dot to the that is higher so it will keep its twist when glued down. Using wet glue, adhere the world ball to its place on the stamped frame. 


With the SUP A4 card stock, die cut the Divine Eloquence frame. Cut the frame into 4. Also from the SUP A4 card stock die cut x1 the Everyday Hero's frame. Cut this in 2, leaving the ironwork complete. Apply Broken China and Forest Moss ink to the ironwork on all the frames. When the ink is dry, gently apply a little versa mark to the edges (like you would when distressing with ink), sprinkle the gold embossing powder over this area then fix the powder with the heat gun. Repeat if needed. In this case less is more. 


Attach the frames to the stamped Labels Twenty- Eight frame with wet glue so you can align accurately. Taking the Everyday Heros frame, cut both the end swirls on the circle edge from the circle, leaving the rest of the iron work still attached. Adhere both frames to the main frame, one each at the top and bottom, slipping the cut swirl over the top of the other frames when attaching. See the photo. Add Double Dots to the back of the completed frame. Adhere the frame to the card front. To tidy the frame joins, adhere a little ribbon to the side of the frame between the black swirls. Attach the card front to the card base with Double Dots. '


Now to make the flower clusters: Make two 1/2 bows from the seam binding ribbon. From the paper collection, cut a few strips 30 cm x 2 mm. to make the paper screw swirls. With the quelling tool, quell the paper. Pull the ends to make the screw swirls. Cut to the desired length. Stamp and die cut the leaves using the HCPC-3646 Fluffy Birdies stamp set and matching HCD 1-756 Birds and Blooms die set. Make the flowers by using the HCPC-3651 stamp set and HPD-1-179 Botanical Wings die set. Stamp with the white embossing powder on the yellow card stock. Use the Broken China and Forest Moss inks to color the petals both sides.. The embossing powder becomes a resist when coloring the petals. Ball and shape the petals using the HCST1-401 Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit. To aid with the flower shaping use water mist. When dry, the paper will become hard. Adhere a pearl to the center of the flower.


 This will show a little when the flowers are made and will help to keep the balled shape. Arrange and adhere with wet glue all you have made to form a cluster on each side of the card. Cut the stamens to size then glue together at the cut end, forming a cluster. Tuck the stamen clusters under each end of the arrangement, see photo. When all the glue is dry, add a little stickles for the finishing touch.

I sure hope you had a great time visiting my blog today. I loved making this card...so much so, I had problems parting with it. Do you ever have that problem? You make a card for someone...then you end up keeping it for yourself...LOL....then you have to make another one...a never ending story....LOL Just as well we all have a good stash of product.....and ideas.

Tip of the day: If you make more than one at the same time, like 5-10 you might get so tired of it...then, you will be wanting to give it away to someone you love dearly with your whole heart ...LOL
Hold the thought, till next week, have a scrappy inky day.

Versa Mark. Gold stamens. Quelling tool 


Instructions:
This card size is 14.9 cm x 21 cm. To make the card base take the SUP A4 and cut 14.9 cm x 21 cm, fold at 10.5 cm. From the paper collection chose the paper with the beige spots and black back ground. Cut the card front matting at 14.4 cm x 10cm. Use the flip side of the paper to cut the card front at13.9 cm x 9.4 cm. To stamp the sentiment, use the HCPC-3664 My Hero stamp set and HCD-744 die for the pocket watch. 


To only get the part image from the stamp, you need to mask the paper. Stamp the image with Tuxedo Black ink then, emboss with clear embossing powder. Ravel the edges of the papers with the distressing tool. Adhere the papers with Double Dots to the card base. To make the pocket watch; take the HCD-744 die and cut only the pocket watch shape. Use the stamp positioner and stamp with Tuxedo Black ink on the die cut shape. Apply a layer of versa mark to the stamped image of the pocket watch, then clear embossing powder. Fix with the heat gun. To give a gold edge to the pocket watch, apply to the edges versa mark, then gold embossing powder. See photo.


 Adhere the pocket watch to the stamped image on the card front with a Double Dot. To make the flowers and leaves use the HCPC-3856 Delightful Daisies stamp set and the matching die set, HCD 1-760. With the vellum stamp with gold embossing powder, then die cut. For the flowers use the same stamp and die set. Stamp with the glitter embossing powder. Color the flower centers with the Pan Pastels. Prick a whole in the center of the flower so you can thread the stamens into the whole later. Use the HCST1-401 Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit to shape the flowers as wanted. Use the water mister to aid in the shaping. This will also dry hard so the flowers will keep their shape better. Thread the stamens in the whole and apply wet glue to fix. Adhere the flowers and leaves in place with the wet glue. 


Cut 2 mm lengths from the paper collection to make the 4 screw swirls. Using the quelling tool, quell the 2 mm strips. Pull the paper off the tool then gently pull on one end to form the screw swirl, cut to the length wanted. Tuck and glue under the flower clusters, 1 at the top and 3 under.


*******
Thats it. Not so hard after all, and a lot of fun. 
You can always change the color choice for the flower centers, this will change the mood of the card. Pink will always give it a girly feel. My be, a few extras of this card would be so handy to have as back ups for those unexpected occasions when you need a card in a hurry.....
A not so fussy card, but in my opinion, very versatile as to what occasion this can be used for.
A ribbon across the front with the bow on the right would also make a unexpected change to a tired idea....food for thought.....
Actually, this card has become a fav of mine.....wait till you see whats coming up for next week....I had trouble parting with it.
 We always send our work in to Heartfelt Creations so they can display all the cards, LO and other projects in the shows etc they demo around the world. Yes not only in the USA.

When the masking is dry, apply in circle motion the Inka Gold cream to highlight the raised circles and puddles. 


Now, to prepare and make all the embellishments: Using the SUP card stock, make the sentiment circles by stamping and die cutting the circle sentiments. Die cut 5 extra shapes for each circle. To make this into chipboard, apply wet glue to all layers, stack and align, when dry apply a little Inka Gold to the outside edges. 


To make the ironwork circles and basket, use the HCD 746 Sweet Lullaby die. Cutting to just over the sold strip on the die, the rest will be discarded. Cut this shape x 18. This will give you 3 layers each circle plus two half circles for the basket and top. The same method as above is used to make the chipboard. To make the 2 full circles, attach 2 of the half circles to form a full circle, by cutting a strip of cardstock so both the straight solid strips can be butted together. Adhere with double sided tape. This will form a base to adhere further layers. Apply Inka Gold to the out side edges. Adhere ribbon using double sided tape across the solid line of the circles. Cut foam tape to size and apply it to the back of the sentiment circles. The basket do as above only you are keeping them in the half circle and no ribbon.

Use the water mister to assist in getting the shape wanted, also the flowers will dry hard and keep their shape. 


To prepare the photo; Taking the cardboard, cut x 2 to fit the photo. Adhere the 2 mm cardboard to the photo. Sand the edges of the photo, just enough to give a white edge. Sanding a little more on the corners. Cut cardboard box card ½” smaller than the photo. Adhere to back of photo. This will give the photo the height needed to allow you to tuck the embellishments under it. Now to put it all together: Arrange and adhere all the embellishments and photo the layout base, except the basket of flowers and the last two sentiment sentences. To give the ironwork basket the rounded shape, gently curling it with your fingers. Before adhering the basket, arrange and glue down a few flowers so they fall behind the basket shape. Adhere with wet glue on to the basket edges so the basket will sit on top of the already glued down flowers. When the basket is firmly attached, add more flowers so the basket is full and overflowing with flowers. Tuck a few leaves under the flowers to help with the fall of the arrangement. 


Place and adhere the last two sentiment sentences For the finishing touch, add a spot of stickles to the flower centers.

I hope you had a good time learning how I did this LO. I had a lot of fun making it and feel privileged in sharing this with you all.

I have just had a wonderful week in London...family time....thank you to Janice and Andrew for making me feel so special.
I also had such fun, looking all over the place for waxed paper for my die cutting...LOL...so frustrating to find out they don't stock it anymore...lunch boxes and plastic bags have filled the need for the waxed paper....but not mine. The closest was a plastic coated paper, called freezer paper, used for quilting. That was too thick and quite pricy for what I was needing it for, so now I shall have to try getting the wax candles onto the baking paper and see how that works. Now, that should keep me busy and laughing for a while....LOL.

If any one has a better tip, I would love to hear it.

You all have a scrappy time till next week.
sussipoppins inky hugs to you all xox

With the sponge and gesso, apply to the raw wavy side, leaving some of the Kraft color showing through in the waves. Add another coat if you want more white showing. Put aside to air dry. This will be your project base. 


From the HCDP1-251 Butterfly Medley Collection Paper Pad: Find the paper with the seed banners print, cut this to 23.5 cm x 19 cm. This will be your matting paper. From inside this same paper, fussy cut the banner with "Thoughtfulness" x 1 and the word "SEEDS" x 2. Ink the edges of the cut words with brown ink. Apply Double Dots  to the back of these words. Put aside. Find the paper with the print of the purple paper tears, swirls and butterflies. Making sure you cut the vertical tear and in the right place to get the print centered, cut 17 cm across x 21.5 cm down. This will be your front paper.


With the craft knife, in the center of the purple printed paper tear, cut the green triangle insert away. Using the sewing machine, sew a few rows of straight stitching along each edge of the papers. On the front paper sew a zigzag stitch on top of the straight stitching and the extended purple line in the center of the paper. Taking the distressing tool ravel and fray the edges of the sewn papers, also the top of the green insert. Apply stickles to the butterflies on the front paper, put aside to dry.



 Stamp, die cut the flowers and leaves using stamp the set HCPC-3651 Botanical Rose Cling Stamp Set  and the die set HCD1-179 Butterfly Medley Die.

Do the same with the leaves. Using the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit shape the all most dry leaves and flowers. When dry they will become hard and keep their shape, then glue together using the clear drying glue. 


Layering the papers on the base cardboard, adhere with Double Dots. Adhere with wet glue, the green insert back into its place in the printed purple paper tear. Arrange the leaves and flowers as shown in the project photo, when the arrangement is to your liking glue down with the clear glue. Before the glue dries, slide and move the arrangement so it is balanced and covers any unwanted gaps. 


To make the bow: Cut 6 lengths of string. At the height of the rose bud attach with double sided tape to the back of the board, three lengths of the cut string. Repeat for the other side. Take the three strings from each side, bring across the front of your work, tucking between the rose bud and rose, and tie a bow to the left of the flowers. Cut off the excess from the tie ends; use this to make two loops. Adhere these loops at the bottom left corner under the paper matting by the two large flowers. Attach the banner and "SEED" words in their place above the string and under the flowers on the bottom left corner.


 Adhere with clear drying glue the scrap cardstock or paper to the back of your work. To finish, apply a little gesso. You do this by dabbing your finger into the gesso; apply it to the leaf edges and tops of the flowers, always applying a little at a time. Remember, you can always add more but you cannot take it away.
