Card Making Project - Bouquet of Blooms Card
Made by Madeleine

This is a very simple card to make as it uses a printed backing card, scored down the middle using an EaziScore, coordinating flowers and ribbon. This card is suitable for beginner - just put plenty of photo glue onto the flowers so that they stay stuck firm and, if you're not very good at making bows, use a bow maker.
To make this card you will need:

Double sided pink floral and stripe card from Set of 5 Double Sided A4 Cards - Pinks and Lilacs
Kaisercraft Blooms from the Coconut Set and Fuchsia Set
Lilac Organza Striped Ribbon
Birthday Foiled Sentiments - Silver on White
Mini Glue Dots
Photo Glue
Scissors
EaziScore
Bow Maker (Optional)

Take the pink floral and stripe card from the pack - this has the same pattern in cream on the reverse - and using an EaziScore score down the A4 half fold line to create an A5 creased card. Fold so the pink pattern is on the outside.

Take 2 of the Coconut Kaisercraft blooms and a pale pink one from the Fuchsia set and twist the stems arranging the flowers so that all 3 flower heads are pointing forwards. Take a deep pink flower from the Fuchsia Kaisercraft blooms and holding all the flowers in place apply photo glue liberally to the back of the flowers and position on the card. Leave for  the photo glue to dry (if you have applied sufficient glue this will take about half an hour).

When the glue is dry and the flowers firmly stuck to the card, cut out the Happy Birthday foiled sentiment leaving more of the white card showing at the left hand side than at the right hand side.

Glue the cut sentiment at an angle to the bouquet using photo glue. One corner of the sentiment will slightly overlap the edge of the front of the card. Using sharp scissors trim this flush with the edge of the card.

Take 2 lengths of the lilac organdie ribbon together to make a double bow. Glue this under the bouquet using mini glue dots.
