Card Making Project - Glittered En Francais Flower
Made by Mary

This is the first of 2 cards made by Mary using the Prima En Francais Flower clear stamp and combines silver and greens with white glitter.
To make this card you will need:

A5 White Hammer Card creased to A5
Smooth Bright White Card
Iridescent White Glitter Paper
Leafbird Green Card
Printed Pale Green Backing Card or Paper
Prima En Francais Flower Clear Stamp
Stazon Ink Pad - Black
Sakura Quickie Glue Pen
Crystal Ultrafine Glitter Powder
Birthday Sentiments Sheet - Silver Foil on White
Self Adhesive Gems - 3mm
Iridescent Edged Green Organdie Ribbon
Bow Maker (Optional)
3D Double Sided Foam Pads 10mm Square
5mm Double Sided Fingerlift Tape
3mm Double Sided Tape
Mini Glue Dots
Decoupage Scissors


Stamp the flower image onto the smooth white card. Take the glue pen and run lines around the petals where you want to highlight. Sprinkle with the crystal ultrafine glitter, shake off the excess and leave to dry.

Take the green backing card or paper and cut it to 190mm x 130mm then cut diagonally from the top left corner to the bottom right corner. Using one of the diagonals and 5mm double sided tape glue the green card in position on the card.

Using 3mm double sided tape run a length of the iridescent edge green ribbon alongside the diagonal of the green backing card and trim to fit. Run a second length of ribbon just inside of the diagonal so that it slightly overlaps both the card and the first length of ribbon. Trim to size. Take a third length of ribbon and make a bow attaching it with mini glue dots to the top left corner of the card.

Cut a piece of the leafbird green card to 95mm x 85mm and a piece of the iridescent white glitter paper to 90mm x 85mm and, using 5mm double sided tape glue the glitter paper to the leafbird green card leaving a narrow border all around.

Cut out the stamped and glittered image using decoupage scissors. Add a green 3mm gem as a dewdrop on one of the leaves. Attach the stamped image to the glitter paper using 3D foam pads to create the card topper. Attach the topper to the card using 3D foam pads.

Cut out the birthday sentiment and attach to the card using 3D foam pads.
