Hello! It’s Christina, and I’m excited to share with you this card featuring a variety of products from past collections. I started with the incredible layered die set, Field of Blooms, and then perched a sweet little bird from the Block Print collection on a big, bold greeting. This is a straightforward die cutting-only card design, except for a little heat embossing! And it’s easily customizable to any occasion by simply changing up the sub-sentiment. So grab your die cutting machine, and let’s get started!
My first step was to create the layered background with the Field of Blooms dies. There are three plates in this set that can be used together or separately with beautiful results. I chose to use all three layers, die cutting them with white cardstock for the first layer, light pink cardstock for the second layer, and green cardstock for the last layer. I secured the layers together and then attached them to a darker pink cardstock panel that peeks through all the layers to be the other half of the flower.
I trimmed down the layered background panel a bit and added a white frame with a stitching detail before mounting everything to a white A2 cardstock panel.
Next, I die cut and assembled the pieces for the perched bird. I chose two shades of yellow, white, and black cardstock for the die cuts and a black pearl for the eye.
For the sentiments, I die cut the greeting from black cardstock and layered it with a white shadow die cut. Then I heat embossed a sub-sentiment with white embossing powder on a black sentiment strip.
The final step was to attach all the elements to my card design. I used foam squares for added dimensions and finished with a few black enamel hearts for embellishment.
Thank you so much for stopping by and reading about my layered card design featuring products from past Birch Press collections. See you again soon!
