Hello Everyone!
Hope you are all well and doing plenty of crafting with all the latest goodies.....
Today I am sharing with you a card made using Jamie's NEW Pierced Collection.
▪️For the card base you will need a sheet of A3 card to cut out a base measuring 45cm x 18.2cm. Use the excess for another card as we crafters waste nothing :-)
Now score the card at 15cm and 30cm to give you the tri-fold.
▪️Next I used the Oval Heart Frame from the Collection and cut it out twice in one colour, and again in another coordinated colour.
✅ TIP - Save the inner ovals for later and also some of the pieces from one of the darker panels, all will be revealed later!
▪️Use the inside outline die first, and then run through your machine again with the inner patterned die. I have chosen to use dark classic colours here, but imagine this in a pink, yellow or a purple and teal! I've used greens (although one looks a little blue lol)
▪️Using the outer die again, run through your machine 3 times using white card (or use some of the excess from earlier).
▪️Glue each die cut pattern to a back panel and then using 2mm foam tape, glue to the card base. Make sure the single colour goes in the middle.
DECORATING THE PANELS
▪️For the first panel, I used the Pierced Butterfly & Flower Frame set.
I cut the centre butterfly oval out in white, and then used the darker oval from earlier to put behind. Glue these in the centre.
▪️I added a sentiment and silver pearls to each corner.
Sparkling gems were added to the flowers in the centre piece.
▪️The second panel I used the centre oval from the light card, and then using white card I cut the centre oval with the Oval Heart Frame.
▪️Glue these to the centre and add silver pearls to the corners. Tiny pearls were added to the oval and I used colours to match my panels.
This panel is a little different.
▪️I cut an oval in white and then stamped a sentiment onto it.
Now remember we saved some of the pieces from the panel which we die cut earlier; this is how I made the heart by interlocking 2 of the swirls and trimming down.
▪️I finished this panel by adding gems underneath the sentiment, and added 4 silver pearls again to the corners.
And that is it...!! A super simple card to make which looks so expensive.
I feel another one in brighter colours coming on lol.
Thanks guys for checking out my blog, and I look forward to sharing another creation with you soon.
