Gather a bouquet of bright blossoms from the new Woven Flower Basket die set and create a spring birthday greeting with dies from our Birthday Blossoms release. Think of the set’s namesake basket as “extras” for another card… we’re focusing on the flowers and foliage for today’s project.
Trim watercolor paper with the 3.75” wide Rectangle Basics die. Center and tape it on the new Pinpoint Flower Plate with the textured side of the paper facing the plate. Run it thru your diecut machine. Attach it to a white A6 card (4.5” x 6 .25”).
Cut the flowers from three shades of the peachy/coral 6×6’s from the Blush Solid Core Cardstock Pack. It’s easier and faster to cut all of the pieces from the 3 colors than it is to pre-select and cut specific flowers and colors. Trust me! Assemble the flowers – save the extras for other projects.
Cut the leaves and an extra set of the round centers from two shades of green from the Greenery Solid Core Cardstock Pack. Improvise and create “stems” from the Wavy Sheet Music die set.
Cut white cardstock with the 2.5” wide Rectangle Basics die. Attach the blossoms, stems and leaves. Nine flowers should have nine stems…but it looked too “stem-y” so I eliminated two stems.
Cut the bow – from the new Gifts Galore die set – from Rainbow Reflections Mirror Pad 6×6. Attach it to a new Happy Birthday Foil Greeting Black Tag. Attach the tag with foam tape.
Cut an A6-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.
There are endless ways to mix, match and layer these flowers in colors for every season and occasion. Have fun gathering bouquets and filling the Woven Flower Basket!
Thanks for visiting – have a great weekend…
