A Way With Words – Good Luck

Hey Crafters! Katelyn here, sharing with you my Good Luck Card.

To create my Good Luck Card, I’ve used a variety of dies from Suzanne Cannon as well as Els van de Burgt Studio. You’ll want to read below as I share with you how to recreate my card at home.

Step One. Choose a piece of patterned paper. Die cut a 4″ Stitched Rectangle out of the patterned paper. Distress the edges of the rectangle. Using a blending tool with foam, ink the edges of the rectangle with Black Soot Distress Ink.

Step Two. Choose a piece of coordinating patterned paper. Die cut a 3 1/2″ Stitched Rectangle out of the coordinating patterned paper. Distress the edges of the rectangle. Using a blending tool with foam, ink the edges of the rectangle with Black Soot Distress Ink.

Step Three. Die cut the Flourished Frame out of White Soft Finish Cardstock.

Step Four. Choose a piece of coordinating patterned paper. Die cut the Flourished Oval Frame out of the coordinating patterned paper. Using a blending tool with foam, ink the edges of the frame with Black Soot Distress Ink.

Step Five. From the same piece of patterned paper that you’ve die cut the 3 1/2″ rectangle out of, die cut a 2 1/2″ Stitched Oval out of the patterned paper. Distress the edges of the oval. Using a blending tool with foam, ink the edges of the oval with Black Soot Distress Ink.

Step Six. Die cut the Good Luck sentiment out of White Soft Finish Cardstock.

Step Seven. Apply Emboss It Ink to a piece of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Sprinkle Dilly Dilly Lavender Modern Gilding Powder on to the cardstock. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Apply Emboss It Ink to another piece of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Sprinkle Armenian Pink Modern Gilding Powder on to the cardstock. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Die cut the Butterflies Spray from the Butterflies & Stars Spray out of the Dilly Dilly Lavender cardstock. Die cut the Butterflies Spray out of the Armenian Pink cardstock. You’ll need a total of nine lavender butterflies and ten pink butterflies.

Step Eight. Adhere the Flourished Frame to the 4″ stitched rectangle. Adhere the 3 1/2″ stitched rectangle to the 4″ stitched rectangle.

Step Nine. Adhere the flourished oval frame to the stitched oval. Foam square the stitched oval to the middle of the 3 1/2″ stitched rectangle. Adhere the Good Luck sentiment to the middle of the flourished oval frame.

Step Ten. Adhere the purple and pink butterflies as desired around the Good Luck sentiment and flourished oval frame.

Step Eleven. Cut a cardbase out of White Soft Finish Cardstock that measures 4 1/4″ x 11″, score at 5 1/2″. Adhere the cardfront to the cardbase.

Thanks for joining me today! I hope that I’ve inspired you to create your own version of my Good Luck Card.
