    Fresh Floral Wreath | By Dilay Nacar

    Happy Monday, crafty friends! Dee here today sharing this fresh floral card featuring the Star Flowers dies from the latest Floral Contour Layers collection! 

    I started by cutting Layer A, B, and C of the Petal Triangle dies twice, then adhered them (mirrored) onto a piece of white cardstock that I cut down to 5.5” x 4.25”.

    Next, I cut layers A, B, and C of the Tranquility Layer die (saving the center circle for a future project, then adhered it to the center of the two triangles. 

    I cut the Star Flowers Contour Layer dies twice in yellow cardstock and once in coral. I layered each flower then adhered them together and onto the Tranquility frame. Next, I die-cut leaves from the Dainty Rose and Leaves dies set in shades of teal then adhered them tucked behind the flowers. 

    For the sentiment, I die cut the Handwritten Hugs in gold glitter cardstock and adhered it to the card with foam tape. As a finishing touch, I added embellishments in coordinating colors to the center of each flower! 

    Thanks so much for joining me today!

    Welcome crafty friends! It is Natasha here today and I am so excited to share a card using the beautiful Pimpernel Contour Layers die set. These beautiful flowers are a part of the latest release from Birch Press Designs! So let’s get started!

    To begin, I started by creating colorful backgrounds on watercolor card stock. I used powders to create different colored backgrounds. You can create a similar effect using any types of watercolors or inks within your stash. I then allowed my backgrounds to dry. Once my backgrounds are dry, I started to die cut my flowers and my leaves using the Pimpernel Contour layers set, as well as the Eucalyptus Stem and Berries die sets. Once all my layers are die cut I then adhered them together using liquid glue. I then set them aside.

    Next I die cut the adorable butterfly from the colored background panels I created earlier. I die cut the smallest butterfly from the Simple Butterfly Contour Layers die set. I then adhered this together using liquid glue. Next I wanted to add some detail and texture to my background. I die cut Layer C from the Viola Plate Layer set. I love these layered sets, as these layers can work beautifully together, as well as on their own. I die cut Layer C and then adhered this to an A2 card panel.

    Once my background panel was adhered I started to work on placement of my flowers, butterfly, and leaves. I then adhered these down using both liquid glue and foam tape.

    To complete the card I die cut the Handwritten Thanks sentiment. I die cut the shadow using white card stock. Then I die cut the script (Thanks) 3 times. I die cut this 2 times using white card stock, then a 3rd time using the Memory Box Vintage Pastel Mirror paper pad. This collection of mirror card stock is so beautiful! I then adhered the 3 layers together using my fine tip glue and adhered this to the shadow die cut.

    Once everything was adhered, I added a little more shine using the Fairy Jewels in the color Pastel. Thank you so much for stopping by today! I had a lot of fun creating a colorful thank you card using the beautiful new Contour Layers die sets!

    I will be back soon!

  • Winsome Rose by Jeanne Jachna

    Winsome Rose
    by Jeanne Jachna

    Have you noticed it’s a flower garden around here lately? That’s because our latest release is LOADED with gorgeous layered floral die cuts!!!

    Today I’m sharing a monochromatic card in blue and sharing a quick way to cut LOTS of flowers with minimal effort.

    The Winsome Rose is three layers. I selected three layers of ombre blue cardstock. Choose a light, medium and dark of any color you like. If you can’t decide, cut a whole bunch like I did! Cut all three dies in each of the three colors and then start stacking. Now you have three different colored beautiful blooms that look great together!

    My background is a distress inked panel in Tumbled Glass topped with a Viola Plate die cut. I like to use a stencil brush to remove little bits of paper left behind on my die cuts. My favorite is from Royal & Langnickel 5/8″ 16 mm Crafter’s Choice (R9113).

    I love that the new florals are easy to mix and match. I used the Dainty Rose leaves with the Winsome Rose on this card.

    The sentiment is from the Happy Lingo stamp set. I wanted something simple that wouldn’t cover up all the beautiful die cuts. The finishing touch is a few Fairy Drops to look like dew.

    Thanks for stopping by! I hope these beautiful blooms make you smile!
