Monochome cards can create an impact. The additions of a few clear gems add a touch of sparkle to this black and white card.
To make this card you will need:
 A4 Smooth Bright White 270gsm Card cut and creased to 148 x 148Smooth Skin Truly Black CardBlack Satin Ribbon 7mm WideKaisercraft Blooms - CoconutKanban Bling 5mm GemsLarge Butterfly PunchDC 212 or RT-200 Rotary Trimmer with Victorian Blade or Victorian Decorative Edge Scissors5mm Double Sided Tape 3mm Double Sided TapeMemory Glue Dots or Silicon GlueDidi Glue Dots3D Double Sided Foam Pads 10mm SquareBowmaker (Optional) |
|||||||
Cut a piece of Smooth Truly Black card to 155mm x 65mm and cut along each side using the rotary trmmer and victorian blade or the victorian decorative edge scissors. Take the piece of Smooth Bright white card left over from cutting the A4 sheet to make the creased card and trim the edges along both sides with the rotary trmmer and victorian blade or the victorian decorative edge scissors so that the white card is 20mm narrower than the black card.
Apply double sided tape to the back of the white card then line the both pieces of card up so that the edging maches on both cards. Glue the white card to the black card. Trim off any excess white card then cut the length to 148mm. Using double sided tape glue a length of black satin ribbon to the centre of the white card taking the ribbon around the back of the black card. Using 3D foam pads glue the card to the left hand side of the creased card.
Make a bow using a length of the black satin ribbon and trim the tails if necessary. Fix the bow to the card using a Didi glue dot.
Trim the stem of the Kaisercraft bloom with scissors and glue beneath the bow using Memory glue dots or Silicon glue.
If using glue dots this is the one time when you need to peel off the glue dot and then stick it on the flower rather than taking the embellishment to the glue dot. Use several glue dots to ensure it sticks firmly.
Using the Smooth Truly Black card, punch out to butterflies. Glue into position on the card using 3mm double sided tape.
Place 3 black gems at the top right hand corner of the card and 6 clear gems down the black ribbon.
