Hi everyone, Michelle here again and Christmas has come and gone and the New Year is now well and truly underway.
Let’s hope that 2023 is a fabulous year for all of us and that we can all find a little time to be creative in our craft spaces. I have been quite happily playing [read here – creating] in my craft room with the gorgeous Elegance collection.
I seem to be on repeat whenever I mention this collection – it’s so easy to be creative with this stunning collection. It truly is. You’ve seen this type of card before – it’s easy peasy to make and so very quick to put together.
Let me remind you how to create one of these cards.
Cut four circles – I’ve used a 3 ½” diameter circle die. Run through die cutting machine – four times. Score them all in half nice and crisply. Place adhesive on the reverse side on one of the halves of each circle and then adhere to cardstock squares.
You will need three squares of cardstock. Two squares 3” x 3” & One square 2 ¾” x 2 ¾” . Adhere cardstock to bottom of card and the inside – two layers – I’ve used the lighter orange cardstock top and bottom and then the darker orange cardstock on top – still within the middle of the card. Make a belly band.
Cut a strip of cardstock ¾” x 8 ½” – place around card to keep it closed and once you are happy with it score crisply to make sure it sits nicely. Now embellish your belly band – I’ve cut out a scalloped circle – layered a little muslin, a few crafting fibres, a thread of pearls – I’ve also cut out three leaves in green cardstock using the leaves in the You are Adorable layered sentiment cutting die set, a bloom on the top. And to finish I’ve added three small self-adhesive pearls.
