Card Making Project - Cream and Black Flower Card
Made by Irene

This is a stunning card made using a large 198 x 198mm card as it's base and decorated with Stardream Onyx card and Calligraphy Rose Cream backing card.

You need a die cutting machine for this project.

To make this card you will need:

198mm x 198mm Creased White Card Blank
Backing Card Calligraphy Rose Cream - 2 A4 sheets
Stardream Onyx Card - 2 A4 sheets
Kaisercraft Blooms - Honey
Kanban Bling 5mm Mixed Gems
Black Satin Ribbon Bow
Spellbinders Nestabilities Majestic Elements Marvellous Squares
Spellbinders Shapeabilities Jewel Flowers and Flourishes
Die Cutting Machine - Cuttlebug, Big Shot or Grand Calibur
Photo Glue
Double Sided Tape

Cut one of the A4 sheets of Stardream Onyx card to 198 x 198mm and glue to the front of the card blank using double sided tape.

Cut one of the sheets of the Cream Calligraphy Rose card to measure 188mm x 188mm  and attach to the card centrally using either photo glue or double sided tape leaving an even border of the onyx card all round.

Cut a piece of onyx card measuring 178mm x 178mm. To create the three panels, cut three strips of the cream card each measuring 50mm x 170mm and, using photo glue, attach these to the piece of onyx card with an even border between each panel.  Using double sided tape attach this to the centre of the card.

Using the large and small flourishes from the Spellbinders Shapeabilities Jewel Flowers and Flourishes dies, run a piece of onyx card through the die cutting machine using the plates appropriate for your machine to cut them. Change the plates to those you need for embossing thin dies and run them through again to emboss them. Repeat the process of die cutting and embossing using the smaller flourish. (You should have one large and two smaller flourishes)

Using Stardream Onyx card and the fourth die from the Marvellous Squares die set run it once through the die cutting machine to cut and, changing plates, run it through again to emboss.

Using photoglue attach the three flourishes to the panels of cream card with the largest flourish in the central panel, and attach the square diecut to the top left hand side of the card with a Honey Kaisercraft Bloom attached.

Complete the card by adding a black gem from the Kanban Bling gems to each corner and attach a black satin bow to the bottom right hand corner using double sided tape.
