Flowery greetings

March 5th already! and I feel spring is just around the corner, even here in the cold winterland of Oslo, Norway.  The sun gets warmer, and I feel all happy. I’m so looking forward to spring, to flowers and butterflies and warmer days.   So I decided to share some “flowery” inspiration today

I used my “funky circles” stamp set, my favorite embossing powder, and some patterned paper for this project.

I’ll give you a small step-by step on how I made this fun and spring-like greeting-card.

1. gather your favorite mSB stamps, embossing-stamp pad, embossing-powder, white cardstock and a background paper.

2. Stamp with your circles on to the cardstock and add embossing-powder.  Put exess powder back in to the jar

3. heat the stamped images with a heatgun until the embossing powder melts and gets glossy.

4. Cut out all the embossed circles from your cardstock

5. Add all the circles and maybe a chrocheted flower or a doily to a new piece of white cardstock using doublesided tape and 3D-foam to make the circle”flowers” pop.

6. Hand sew stalks to your flowers.

7.  attach the piece of cardstock with the flowers on, on top of your background paper.

I stamped “just for you” and attached to the card with a tiny little mat.

Drawed a black pencil-line around the edge of the white cardstock.

VOILA!

Have fun creating.
