Flower Circle.

Good evening All,

Hope you managed to watch Sue from Imagination Crafts on  Create & Craft TV. today.    Lots of great tips and demos, not to mention the fabulous products.   Tonight I'd like to share another card with you that I made for the show but did not get shown.   This card uses the bubble cloud stencil and as Sue mentioned this stencil can be turned over to make a larger pattern.   This is what I did on this card.

Fold the white card in half down the crease line to make a 7"x7" square card., matt some pink paper, slightly smaller than the white base card., leaving a small border of white showing.   Matt a white square onto the pink, leaving a bigger  border of pink showing.

   
Take a smaller piece of white card and paint it with the rose and lime green stencil paints.   Do not make the painting  'perfect' some white and/or brush strokes showing is just fine, this adds to the card.

When dry, lay the bubbles stencil onto the right-hand side of the coloured card and dab the rose stencil paint through the design.   Remove the stencil and wash and dry it, then 'flip' it over and lay on the left-hand side.  

   
Repeat as before with the rose stencil paint.   Fix a piece of ribbon down the centre and glue the edges to the back of the card.   Matt this onto the base card.

Take some white card and lay the topiary flower stencil onto it (masking out the stems and pot)    and dab Versamark through the stencil,   Remove the stencil  and heat emboss with gold embossing powder.   On another piece of white card, do the same, but this time dab the rose stencil paint through the design.   Repeat the gold, twice more and the rose paint, once more.

   
Using the Sizzix scalloped circle dies, cut out alternate colours, going down in size, finishing with the smallest size, being done in gold.  

         
3D these onto the card front, using silicone glue.   Die-cut a narrow pink circle by using the two largest  dies together, which makes a narrow ring.    Glue this around the white/gold circles.   Add a ribbon bow to the centre top and bottom.

I'll be back again in a few days.   In the meanwhile, enjoy your holiday weekend.     Thank you so much for visiting my blog.
