Splendid Clarkia Blossoms

Can't wait till Spring?  Neither can I!  Jean Okimoto here today, with a flowery any-occasion card featuring the beautiful new Splendid Clarkia Die.  

Memory Box Products

• Splendid Clarkia Die 99068
• Open Studio Stitched Rectangle Layers Die Set 30009
• Open Studio Oh Hello Again Die Set 30010
• Notecards for diecutting – Aloe, Thistle, Violet

Imagine Crafts Products

• Radiant Neon Inkpads – Electric Blue, Electric Purple, Electric Green
• Fireworks! Spritz – Grape Jelly

Sponge the Radiant Neons onto watercolor paper.  Spritz it with Grape Jelly and Gold.  Cut it with the Stitched Rectangle Layer.  

Cut Splendid Clarkia from portions of Aloe and Violet Notecards.  Attach painter's tape behind the Violet pieces to keep the petals together.  Attach Scor-tape behind the Aloe blossoms and insert the Violet pieces.  Brush glitter onto the remaining adhesive in the center of the blossoms.  

Attach a small scrap of the spritzed paper behind the largest blossom to match the glittered centers. Cut two "hellos" and layer them for dimension.  Attach everything to a 5.5" square card of textured white cardstock.  Add gold sequins.
