Die Cut Flowers for Gill

 Evening Everyone,

Well our nice bright day, has turned into torrential rain, so I'm going to hide indoors I think. 

Since today is Wednesday it is time for my lovely friend Gill to set her weekly challenge at Christmas Cards and Papercraft Challenge over on Facebook. This week she is looking for Die Cut Flowers.

I delved into my box of cards and came up with a couple that I made in a class at the beginning of the year. I do miss my Saturdays teaching my group of lovely crafty friends.

The background to the card was created by running a stencil through my embossing machine and then sponging it with plenty of ink.

They really are the most fabulously useful things and so very affordable. 

You can use the debossed side as in the first card,

or you can use the embossed side as with this one. I then added the required die cut flowers and foliage, along with a stamped and embossed sentiment.

Same design just a different colour combo. 

I used Distress Oxides for all of them and then added some gilding wax to the finished panel to highlight the dry embossing.

I added some gems or glitter glue to the flower centers. I'm sure that Gill will appreciate the added bling.

This final card uses some die cut and heat embossed snowflakes. 

I die cut the snowflakes and then covered them in versamark ink before adding Frantage Embossing powder.

I hope that these will inspire you to dig our your floral dies and stencils.

Thanks for stopping by.
