Paper Flowers

Roses Are Red, Violets are Blue…..

March 4, 2022

Hi Everyone, It’s Els here and my turn to give you some inspiration. This time I made a card you can use for many occasion, like Birthday, Thank you, Mother’s day etc…… Below you find the step for step instructions. Have fun creating this card!

  • Take the middle and the small flower die from the Florals 4 and cut them both 9 times , use the small leaf from the Florals 13 set and cut 10, also cut 10 small flowers from the Florals 10 set use the Soft Finish Cardstock.
  • Take the smallest flower from florals 4 and cut of 1 petal
  • Color the flowers as shown on the photo you can also give them other colors, I used a fineliner to make the black lines.
  • Spray the flowers on the front with water, not too wet and shape them then turn them over and press in the center.
  • Glue the small one on top of the big flower
  • Varnish the flowers with 3D Lacqer when dry put a yellow nuvodrop in the center.
  • Shape the leaves and the tiny flower and put stamens in the flower
  • Make a nice arrangement on any die you have
  • Glue the whole arrangement on a 6 x 6 card in the color that fits with you flowers.
  • As you can see on the first picture, I also made a broche. I used 1 pansy, 2 leaves and 2 tiny flowers from my leftovers. For extra green I cut 1x the fern die and cut it apart.
  • I used the 3D Lacquer on the whole broche.
  • I hope I gave you some inspiration to make a card like this and also for the broche you can do that with every flower you have.

Till next time!

Welcome to your new home

Hello everyone, Els Schutte here with my first blog post on the Elizabeth Craft Designs Blog. I’m very excited to show you the card I made for today’s post. It’s a card that would be perfect for someone who just moved into their new home of with a slight modification just a card for any occasion. Let’s get started!

Welcome to your new home card

Cut Lacy Leaves, Florals 4, Ferns, and the Berry Branch out of the Soft Finish Cardstock, then colour them in soft pink and green Inks. Shape the flowers and leaves and glue the flowers together. Put some stamens in the centre and put laquer on the big knobs and pearl drops on the small Berry branch.

Cut a piece of Soft Finish Cardstock 8 1/2 x 8 1/2 and fold in half, this is your base card. Cut another piece of the same cardstock of 8 1/4 x 4 and put this piece on 3D foam blocks and place on top of your card. Cut the door with the die from the phone Booth set, use the parts from the window as bricks. Start with placing the leaves.

Place the flowers
Place some big knops
Ad some leaves

Cut the berry Branch apart and use them on different spots in the cluster. Use some green Ink to make a shadow on the bricks. Ad a string of pearls and bow and your card is done.

I Hope you will give this card a try, it’s a nice gift if you get new neighbours or someone gets a new Home.
