Papertrey Flowers

Here are the last of my flower cards I made for the Papertrey GSS contest. I have a few other cards left to share, but no more flower ones.

This card was very simple to make. I started out by stamping my flower image on white cardstock and cutting it out with a nestability die. I added glitter to the petals using a copic spica pen. Then, I matted it with pink and made my card base and white layer. I added the sweet blush ribbon, tag, and my image and then sewed the white layer to the pink card base.


Here you can see the glitter on the flower petals. The glitter from the spica pen is very fine so it's not over powering to the image. It just adds a little extra something.


This card all started with the button. I stamped the flower on polyshrink with staz on ink, punched it out in a circle, punched two holes to make it look like a button, and shrank it. Custom button! Then, I stamped my patterned paper using the same image. I colored the flower centers with a copic marker and added black stickles to the flower centers. I rounded the edges and matted it with summer sunrise cardstock. Then, I added it to my black card base. I stamped my sentiment on white cardstock, round two corners, and matted it with summer sunrise and black cardstocks. I cut out a flower, added my button to the center, and added it to my card using dimensional adhesive.



Here is a close up of the button. I think it adds something extra to the card by making a custom button.
