I have to admit, it was extremely hard for me to stamp and color and step away! I had to do deep breathing exercises and hold an ice pack to my head! However, the stamps from the Peacock Paisley Collection as so pretty, that they deserve to shine!
Create two 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" card bases by trimming two pieces of aqua cardstock to 11" x 4 1/4" and scoring at 5 1/2" on the long side.
For card one, trim white cardstock to 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" and stamp the flower image from the Feathered Daisy Cling Stamp Set onto the center of the cardstock with black ink. Color the image with alcohol markers. Stamp the sentiment from the Beautiful You Cling Stamp Set on the top left corner of the white cardstock using black ink. Using a paper piercing stencil and the piercing tool from the Deluxe Flower Shaping kit, pierce around the edge of the white cardstock. Attach the image to a card base with foam adhesive.
Stamp the daisies image from the Delightful Daisies Cling Stamp Set onto white cardstock with black ink. Color the daisies with alcohol markers. Trim out the flowers with the Delightful Daisy Die. Shape the flowers and glue three flowers to the card front as shown. Set the other flowers aside to use for card #2. Cut a piece of white cardstock to 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" and attach to the inside of the card.
For card two, trim white cardstock to 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" and stamp the large image from the Daisy Flourish Cling Stamp Set onto the center of the cardstock with black ink. Color the image with alcohol markers. Stamp the sentiment from the Beautiful You Cling Stamp Set on the lower left corner of the white cardstock using black ink. Using a paper piercing stencil, and the piercing tool from the Deluxe Flower Shaping kit, pierce around the edge of the white cardstock. Attach the image to a card base with foam adhesive.
Glue two larger die cut flowers to the card front as shown. I used a "crumpling" technique to shape these flowers. While the flower is damp, simple "squish" each petal and allow to dry. Cut a piece of white cardstock to 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" and attach to the inside of the card.
For those who doubted that I could achieve a CAS card, pthththbbbtthth. {grin}

Very pretty, Gloria. Love your flowers! Have you recovered from the agony of walking away yet? No layers, bows, or ribbons is HARD!
ReplyDeleteI love these CAS beauties! For me, this is the hardest card style to achieve, and you have done a masterful job! I love the color palette...and the tiny touch of lavender with the aqua is inspired. The pierced borders are such a great touch, and of course, the flowers are wonderful. Simply beautiful, Gloria!
