Card Making Project - Meadow Flower Card
Made by Sheila

The use of the Dusty Concord distress ink and Coredinations cardstock together ensures the colour match and the deeper purple of the ribbon with the iridescent gems adds the finishing touch to this purple and white card.

A die cutting machine is required to make this card.
To make this card you will need:

148 x 148 White Creased Card Blank
Coredinations 12 x 12 Tim Holtz Distress Cardstock - Dusty Concord
Stardream Crystal Card
Kanban Clear Stamps Spring Meadow
Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Dusty Concord
Stamp-n Stuff Embossing Powder - Detail Clear Transparent

Bow Maker (Optional)
Kanban Bling Iridescent Self Adhesive Gems - 5mm

3D Double Sided Foam Pads 10mm Square
5mm Double Sided Fingerlift Tape
Tape Runner

Take one of the 148 x 148mm cards and round the top and bottom corners on the right hand side of the card.

Approx. 1cm from the crease place a length of 7mm purple ribbon down the front of the card using 5mm double sided tape to glue it in place. Using another length of the same ribbon make a bow and place it in the centre of the ribbon applying the tape runner to the centre back of the bow.

Attach the Kanban Bling self adhesive gems evenly along the ribbon at either side of the bow.

Cut a piece of Coredinations Tim Holtz Dusty Concord card to 115mm x 140mm and round all 4 corners with the corner rounder punch. Using the M-Bossabilities Whimsy folder run the Dusty Concord card through the die cutting machine. Attach to the card using the tape runner.

Using the Stardream Crystal card and the largest of the Nestabilities Lattice Rectangle dies run through the die cutting machine.

Ink the stamp with the Tim Holtz Dusty Concord Distress Ink and stamp the image in the centre of the Stardream Crystal card. Sprinkle on the clear embossing powder, shake off the excess and set the embossing powder using the heat gun.

Attach the stamped Stardream Crystal card to the centre of the embossed Dusty Concord card using the 3D foam pads.
