Good Saturday morning my fellow stampers. How has everyone’s weekend started off? I have to work a partial day today, but I have tomorrow off. I’m hoping to finish up my spring cleaning, get some windows washed and new curtains hung.
For today’s card I used the Poppy Moments Dies combined with the Bird Ballad Laser-Cut Cards & Tin. Here’s my card.
I started by cutting out all the pieces I needed. I cut 4 of the longer leaves die from the Poppy Moments Dies by cutting 2 each in Mossy Meadow and Old Olive cardstock, the fronts and backs. I adhered the pieces together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I also cut 2 of the smaller leaf dies from the Poppy Moments Dies, 1 each in Mossy Meadow and Old Olive cardstock, fronts and backs. I adhered them together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut all the outline flower dies from the Poppy Moments Dies in Basic Black cardstock. I cut 2 smaller poppy dies from the Poppy Moments Dies in Flirty Flamingo and Vellum cardstock. I cut one of the larger poppy die from the Poppy Moments Dies in Poppy Parade and Vellum. I cut all the flower centers from the Poppy Moments Dies from a Black Foil Sheet. I adhered the Basic Black out line dies to the Vellum die cuts, only in the center using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the smaller poppies to the Flirty Flamingo dies and the larger poppy to the Poppy Parade die, only in the center using Multipurpose Liquid Glue I adhered the flower centers using a Stampin’ Dimensional.
I adhered a panel of Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper to the inside front of one of the Bird Ballad Laser-Cut Cards using Multipurpose Liquid Glue only along the edge of the paper. I arranged the flowers and leaves the way I thought I would like them using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dots.
I added a few Noble Peacock Rhinestones to the card front.
You can see when you open the card you see the reverse side of the Pressed Petals Specialty DSP. On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Timeless Tulips Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the center of a Very Vanilla panel. I stamped the poppy images from the Stampin’ Up! Painted Poppies Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on the bottom corner of the panel using the masking technique. I stamped the leaf images from the Painted Poppies stamp set around the flowers in Mossy Meadow Ink. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Mossy Meadow mat using Snail and then to the inside of the Bird Ballad Laser-Cut card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated an envelope which came in the Bird Ballad Laser-Cut Cards & Tin. I stamped the poppy image from the Painted Poppies stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I stamped the leaf image from the Painted Poppies stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink around the flowers. I adhered a panel of the Pressed Petals Specialty DSP to the envelope flap.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
