I had so much fun decorating the Sweet Little Box on yesterday’s post, that I wanted to stamp and die cut more flowers and make a full-size card. I really wanted to try out the diecut background on this card. So here we have the True Beauty Floral Birthday Card!
I used the Shimmery White Cardstock, one of my all-time favorite papers. You can’t see it in the photo but this paper has just the slightest glimmer to it so it looks quite elegant, especially with flowers I think! I used the diamond-shaped lattice die, included with the other flower and leafy dies in the Organic Beauty Dies. If you have the Adhesive Sheets, you could attach that to the back of the paper you are using for this lattice die so that you can easily adhere it to your card or project after diecutting it. Or use teeny tiny dots of glue on the back. I cut mine out of Gold Foil.
The flowers are all stamped on Shimmery White Cardstock using the True Beauty Stamp Set and then diecut with the Organic Beauty Dies. You can get these stamps and dies together in the True Beauty Bundle and save 10%. I just chose some random colors for the flowers: Melon Mambo, Mango Melody, Daffodil Delight, Gorgeous Grape, and Granny Apple Green for the leaves.
I stamped and cut out a lot of flowers, stems, and leaves to play with. Then I just placed them around on the lattice background after it was adhered to the card front. Even when you have them how you like them, by the time you pick them up to apply adhesive, you might end up changing the design a little bit. I added some diecut stems and leaves, even one out of vellum.
The greeting is stamped from the Shaded Summer Stamp Set. It is die-cut with one of my favorite dies, this label die in the Meadow Dies. And for my favorite embellishment, I added some Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels. You could add a different greeting on this card and it would still be appropriate. Flowers are good for lots of occasions!
Check out this Bundle or even the full Awash In Beauty Suite in the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog and you will be ready to make all kinds of floral cards!
