This is a card I created awhile ago, but never posted. The Flower Basket Bouquet from the Spring Blooms release, is sure to get a lot of use. I stuck very close to the design on the product envelope but earlier I used just the tulips to make a simple bouquet and have used a few of the flowers on other projects. So many possibilities, especially when combined with the Woven Basket die from the recent Birthday Blossoms release.
I die cut the basket from light gray cardstock, and added some ink blending to give it some dimension. I die cut the backing to the basket with dark gray cardstock.
All the flowers and leaves with die cut with scraps of cardstock in my stash—many of them from Memory Box paper packs: Blush, Lagoon, Sunrise and Greenery. I added a bit of ink blending to some of them, and used a Sakura Black Glaze pen to add centers to the small white flowers.
The largest of the Oval Eyelet Rectangle Frames was die cut from dark gray cardstock and then adhered to a light gray card base. I attached the basket to the background with dimensional tape which makes it easier to arrange the flowers. I also added some bits of dimensional tape to some of the flowers. The final touch was to add a few clear Fairy Drops. I chose not to add a sentiment this time, since this can be easily be used for a birthday or thinking of you card–both of which I send frequently.
Thanks for stopping by! I hope Spring weather has found you wherever you are.
