I am delighted to be joining in with today’s blog hop that is celebrating the launch of the new Mini catalogue and using die cut flowers in my cardmaking.

I can’t wait to see what projects the Demonstrators from the Crafty Collaborations community have shared with us using a selection of the fabulous new products from this catalogue

Using Die Cut Flowers in Cardmaking

Using Die Cut Flowers in Cardmaking for this celebrate you card and the Dainty Delights Dies from Stampin' Up!

For my project I had a play with the dies from the bumper Dainty Delights die set. I combined this with Designer Series Paper from the Sale-a-Bration pack “Dainty Flowers”

Before creating my card, I die cut all the different elements from the die set and lay them out so I could play around with them and decide which pieces worked together and some different combinations.

Creating The Card

The paper I chose was a great watercolour effect blended background. I particularly liked the burst of the yellow in the corner as it reminded me of the sunshine. You are going to be able to chose this gorgeous paper pack if you place an order of £45 or more (or your country’s equivalent). I added my mat of paper to a Highland Heather card base before building up my spray of wild flowers.

This “celebrate you” sentiment from the Dainty Delights stamp set would be perfect for so many occasions. I embellished the card with a bow made of white seam binding and some of the new Iridescent Pastel Gems.

Always remember to add an insert to your card and patterned paper is a great finishing touch

For the inside of my card, I added another strip of the Designer Series paper to decorate my insert.
