If there’s one thing we can’t get enough of, it’s a fresh, floral card full of cheerful color and texture! Brenda Noelke brings us just that with her latest design featuring the Into the Blooms: Radiant Florals and This Is Big Sentiments: Many Blessings. With spring right around the corner, this card captures the joyful spirit of the season with vibrant inking, layered florals, and thoughtful sentiment placement.
STEP 1:
Begin by trimming a panel of Lemon Tart Cardstock to A2 size. Use the At The Bottom Stencil Collection to stencil the floral design at the top and bottom of the panel with Raspberry Fizz, Summer Sunrise, and Simply Chartreuseinks. Splatter the panel lightly with diluted Raspberry Fizz ink using a paintbrush.
STEP 2:
Die-cut the largest shape from the Love to Layer: Scalloped Diamonds Die from white cardstock. Splatter it with diluted Raspberry Fizz and Summer Sunrise inks. Once dry, adhere it to the background panel using liquid glue.
STEP 3:
Die-cut the leaves from the Into the Blooms: Radiant Florals Die Set using Ripe Avocado Cardstock. Blend Pinefeatherink onto the edges to add depth and dimension. Once dry, begin arranging them on your background and adhere with glue.
STEP 4:
For the blooms, die-cut all the pieces from Lemon Tart Cardstock and blend Raspberry Fizz from the center of the petals outward. Add splatters of Raspberry Fizz and Summer Sunrise, then layer and adhere the petals together. Add a pop of Summer Sunrise to the stamen centers and die-cut the stamen tips from Raspberry Fizz-blended Lemon Tart cardstock. Assemble and adhere the completed blooms over the leaves.
STEP 5:
Die-cut the word “Blessings” from the This Is Big Sentiments: Many Blessings Die from white cardstock and stamp it with Raspberry Fizz ink using the coordinating stamp set. Stack it with three additional die cuts for dimension, and adhere to the card front. Stamp “springtime” from the same set on white cardstock, trim it into a narrow banner, and pop it up with foam adhesive.
STEP 6:
To finish, embellish the card with Hibiscus Burst Moonshine Sequins and a touch of Star Dust Stickles on the stamen tips for added sparkle and elegance.
