Hi crafters! Today I am here sharing a card perfect for any occasion using the following Tutti Designs dies: Garden Background TUTTI-170 & Nesting Stitched Rectangles TUTTI-217 . I used some patterned paper from Heartfelt Creations with the Garden die for the background and then I used the stitched rectangle as the focal point on the card for my sentiment and embellishments. Once I diecut the rectangle I embossed the paper to sort of fancy it up...
For the flower I used some foamiran which yes I have grown addicted to (love this stuff). I used a flower punch to punch out some flowers as seen below. Once you have your flower using some tweezers lay each flower on your heated iron. This causes the foamiran to melt. As you see in the 4th photo it begins to curl or cup.
Next form some buds with each flower and then you can ink the centers to give it some added color and depth.
For my flowers I used 3 layers. Unfold each flower bud and with a heat gun adhere them to one another staggering each one. Below is my completed card with everything pieced together. I added a chipboard sentiment and inked it so it pops off the paper and remember to "Love Life" for it is the only one you have!!!
I hope everyone enjoyed my post and thanks for stopping by!
