Hi and happy weekend! Jean Okimoto here with a design to celebrate Valentine’s Day, a special friendship or – planning far ahead – Mother’s Day. The Gentle Blossom Watercolor Floral is my new favorite flower set – hope you enjoy creating with it too!
Cut the base flower from two shades of pink in the Berry Red 6×6 Collection. Cut the detailed top layer from the lighter pink 6×6. Squirt and spread big dots (that sounds nicer than “blobs”) of Open Studio Berry Mist Glitter Glue onto it. Set it aside to dry.
Cut the leaves and two-piece layered center from sheets in the Lush Green 6×6 Collection.
Assemble the flower and attach the leaves.
Cut the largest Double Stitch Loving Heart from a Madras Plaid Coral and Green 6×6. Cut the second-largest heart from a dark red/coral sheet from the Berry Red set.
Cut a pink sheet from the Berry Red set with the smallest Wrapped Stitched Slim Rectangles die. Cut another half-piece and attach it to the full piece to create a 7″ strip – the heart diecut will cover the joined pieces.
Attach the diecuts to a white slimline card (3-½” x 8-½”) – use foam dots to attach the plaid heart. Add red Christmas Fairy Crystals. Cut a slimline-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.
Thanks for visiting this weekend – see you next week!
Supplies
i love everything about the heart and flower die cuts, the colors, patterns, off-set layering. would have been even more fun to make in class!
What a lovely Valentine’s Day card this is. I love the plaid and the layered flower in the center of the heart. Thank you so much for inspiring me, Jean!
