WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY - PROJECT DAY

Good morning all.

I'm sure many of you will have started to receive your Crocus Fields and Champagne and Roses sets by now and I can't wait to see what you all do with them.

You all know how much I adore Lisa's product but I have to say I think that as time goes on, she just gets better and better.  I mean, the Birdhouse and The Boot-iful were adorable but this Champagne and Roses set covers sooooooo many occasions it is definitely going to give you value for money.

Wednesday as you know is project day so I'll hand you over to the lovely Mary for this week's project.

Split card: Dahlia and Roses and Blending Inks 2

You will need:

Ultimate

LHC Dahlia and Roses stencils, die and embossing folder

LHC Blending inks of choice  (I used Antique Pink, Rhubarb Jam, Painted Eggshell and Woodland Moss)

LHC Glitter card

LHC Slim line alphabet upper case

LHC A5 Sticker Sentiments

LHC Glue

Scissors

White card

Blending brushes

Die cutting machine

Trimmer

LHC Dewdrops

Step 1: Stencil your dahlia and roses using your inks.

Step 2: Prepare a piece of white card for your letters by swiping the pad directly onto the card. Ensure you leave this to dry completely before die cutting.

Step 3: Cut and emboss your stencilled flowers.

Step 4: Cut the letters for your word of choice in the coloured card from step 2 and also cut them in glittered card. Attach these with the glitter card at the back as a shadow.

Step 5: Be brave and cut your flower piece in half! Also cut two strips of glitter card to your preferred width - I used 1/8 inch. Lay all your pieces on a piece of white card which is 5 1/2 x 7 5/8 inches. Decide on your positioning. 

Step 6: Mark at 3 1/8 and 4 5/8 inches along the long side of your white piece of card. Do this on the opposite side too. You may wish to draw line pencil lines across the card. Glue the glitter card strips along these lines and trim off any overhang.

Step 7: Attach your flower halves above and below as shown. Lay out your word in the space and attach.  I ensured there was room for a sticker sentiment which said 'birthday' - I cut this from a longer sentiment. 

Step 8: Now for your matts and layers. Cut a piece of matching glitter card to 5 5/8 x 7 3/4 inches. Layer this behind your white card layer. Add this to a white card base - just fold an A4 sheet in half and trim the length to 8inches. Your card is finished!

Thank you Mary.  I think we will see quite a few cards like this in the group after today.
