Hello my
blogger friends
Yesterday
I shared a card using a vase of pansies – well today's card is
using the same sheet but at a reduced size and in a very different
way!
The sheet
is by Robyn Cockburn and was purchased from www.craftsuprint.com
the sheet number is 75407_123
So
materials for this card I used ….
Heat mat
to work on and protect your surface – I always use it...
Cream A4
card
Decoupage
sheet printed at A5 size
A5 piece
of lilac pearl paper
piece of
aqua card
Embroidery
threads
card
candy
clear AB
gems
sentiment
tag
EK Success
border punch
Sticky
pads
Eazi Score
Board & tool
Tonic 8”
guillotine
Scissors
Tweezers
Shaping
tool from www.dimensionstamps.com
Foam
shaping mat – stamping mat or even a mouse mat
To
make the card …
I folded
the cream card in half to make the card blank.
The lilac
paper was trimmed to fit the card front then I punched the long
sides with an EK Success birder punch and attached to the card blank
with double sided tape.
I trimmed
the aqua card to fit inside the lilac panel, clipped the corners then
stuck my pricking pattern to the card – this was then placed onto a
foam mat and the dots pricked with a pricking tool
The
pattern was removed then I stitched the design, starting at the top
left I came out at 1 and in at 7 and so on until the stitching was
completed.
The aqua
panel was secured to the card with large sticky pads.
Next the
image was cut out – the base image was placed inside the stitched
area and the decoupage was shaped and stuck in place with sticky
pads.
Once the
decoupage was all added I used a gold stickles to add a blob of shiny
colour to the centre of the pansies.
A tiny dot
of Cosmic Shimmer PVA was added to the punch holes and the tiniest
(1mm) clear AB gem was put in place.
A larger
clear AB gem was stuck in the centre of the ribbon bow.
4 white
with silver spot card candy were added to the 4 corners.
Lastly I
added a tag sentiment with a small piece of blue ribbon through the
hole to finish this lovely card.
This is
the project we will be doing in class this week- I know we did it a
couple of years ago but with so many new members its a good card to
go back to!
Hope you
like it too
It is
another for the use or sell box
Catch you
again tomorrow – same place folks

Great to see you posting on your blog again....I've missed you. I love this stitched card. My crafters love stitching but the way this is done is really unusual....it seems to lift the image rather than the stitching taking over the design....if you know what I mean lol.....not a great explanation!!Wynn x
