The Earth Laughs In Flowers




Love Craft Month! I did a card today. Next week I will be working on a different project! It will take me a while to complete it! I will have some before and after for that!

This card is a simple tri fold card. It measures 5 1/2 X 11. Finished card is 5 1/2 square.
I cut 2 - 5 x 5 pieces of decorative paper. I edged the piece to go on the inside of the card with ink and attached. I cut the other piece in half and ran each half through the Cuttle Bug with he paisley folder. I also cut out 7 corner pieces while I was using the machine.

I inked the now embossed card fronts and ran ink over the top of the design to make the images pop a little bit. I attached these pieces to the card having them meet in the middle.

I ran the corner pieces through my little sticker maker and attached one in each corner of the card front and two on the inside flaps of the card. I double stamped the words on the card front and then on a scrap stamped the outside phrase again and attached it.

I got out my fun sticker and attache a flower to the front and little flowers to the inside. The flower on the card front I filled in with clear liquid adhesive and sprinkled with glitter. I did the same on the edge of the the words on the card front.

As a final touch on the card front I added a couple of dimensional flowers attached with a brad to make the flower really pop. I then stamped the Thinking of You on the inside.

Hope you all enjoy this card and I look forward to my post next week!
