Hey y’all! Stephanie here from Coffee Stamps Chaos! How are you holding up? At the time of writing this, we are about 6 weeks into our state's stay-at-home order. I am playing midwife to my cat, she just had 3 babies and it’s taking all my self control not to spend every waking second in there mother henning over them - hehe. I know their momma is doing a good job with them. They are healthy and adorable!
For the most part, things are calm around my house, there are times when it’s not at all, I have four kids at home, that are “homeschooling” - I use the term loosely because we are kind of approaching things at our own pace, it’s not a race, right? To say this has been a major transition is an understatement, but we are surviving.
Today I want to share this fun card I made using a layered rose die set I got! I was so excited about this and I have been anxiously waiting to share this project with all of you! I thought it was fun and pretty easy to make. Die-cutting is my jam and it’s easy when I have such beautiful Cardstock Warehouse papers to choose from.
For this project you will need:
- Cardstock Warehouse Cardstock Papers
- Pretty in Pastels Multi-Pack
- Pergamenata Parchment Bianco
- Die-cutting machine
- Flower die cut set of your choice
- Background shape die set
- Your favorite adhesive
- Foam Tape
- Embellishments
- Glitter Spray
Steps:
- Die-cut the rose layers - I did this for all three colors
- Die-cut the leaf layers - I did this a few times using Spearmint so I’d have lots of leaves
- Die-cut the background layers - 1 each of Sno Cone and Pergamenata Parchment
- Add Versamark to edges, this makes them a little darker around the sides
- Assemble Flower layers
- glue the two bottom layers together
- Glue the top layers together
- You will have two pieces - I added foam tape to the back of the top layer of each rose to give them dimension
- Assemble Leaf layers
- Arrange flowers to your liking on your label panel
- Glue them down or use foam tape for added dimension. Dimension adds interest to your project as a whole.
- Once my background panel was assembled, I spritzed it with shimmer spray because shimmer makes everything better, am I right?
- After I had my label layer assembled, spritzed and dry, I added foam tape to the back of it and put it on my card base.
- At the end, I added a few enamel dots and now it's all done!
