Card Making Project - Marianne Pink Organza Flowers Card
Made by Madeleine


An easy make card that you can create in half an hour using a "leftover" from the From the Heart Scalloped Diamond Aperture card making kit and some organza flowers
If you thought Marianne Design just made beautiful dies then check out the Marianne paper pads,  Marianne Beads, Marianne toppers, Marianne stamps, and these - the Marianne organza flowers.

You can make this card without a die cutting machine as Madeleine used her Big Shot only to make the tag that holds the peel off greeting.  If you don't have a die cutting machine simply substitute one of the Craftsite foiled sentiments for the tag and peel offs.

To make this card you will need:

148mm x 148mm Creased White Card Blank
From the Heart Scalloped Diamond Aperture Card Kit
Small piece of Stardream Mars Card
Marianne A5 Paper Pad Belle Fleur
Marianne Design Organza Flowers - Pink
Woodware Butterfly Regular Punch
Photo Glue
Mini Glue Dots
Didi Glue Dots
3D Foam Pads 3mm Thick
Rotary Trimmer or Craft Knife, Cutting Mat and ruler.

If Using A die Cutting Machine

Small piece of Stardream Quartz Card
Die Cutting Machine such as the Cuttlebug or Big Shot
Tag Die from the Nestabilities Romantic Rectangle Two Die Set
Tiny Birthday Peel Offs - Gold

Without Using a Die Cutting Machine

Small Mixed Foil Sentiments Sheet - Gold


Take a sheet of the floral print on blue from the Marianne Belle Fleur A5 paper pad.  The paper is already 148mm wide so you just need to trim the length to 148mm.  Attach to the front of the card using photo glue. Leave to dry.

Adhere the arch topper towards the left hand side of the card using photo glue and leave to dry.

Using Mini glue dots place four organza flowers randomly around the arch.

Using the spare piece of Stardream Mars card, punch out three butterflies using the butterfly regular punch.  Attach a mini glue dot to each of the wings and position on the card.

Beginner's tip: using glue dots of the appropriate size for the embellishment is quick and easy.  They are the ideal medium for gluing small embellishments - there's no mess and no drying time.  Just remember to take the small embellishment to the glue dot - don't peel the glue dot from the backing sheet to place on the embellishment.  You'll find by taking the embellishment to the glue dot the glue dot is fixed in the correct place when the embellishment is lifted away from the glue dots backing paper.

Using a Die Cutting Machine

Run the small piece of Stardream Quartz card and the tag from the Romantic Rectangles Two set through the die cutting machine once to cut it and then, changing plates, once again to emboss it.  Add the Just for You peel off sentiment to the middle of the tag and adhere to the card using 3D foam pads..

Without Using a Die Cutting Machine

Cut out the Just for You sentiment and attach it to the card using 3D foam pads.
