Good morning
Today I want to show you what I made with the curtain lace I coloured in this video
All of these cards use a purchased pale pink satin card base that measure 5 7/8" square
Each of these cards use Kaisercraft's Secret Garden patterned papers.
Card No. 1
I have covered the front of the whole card base with the curtain lace.
Pink checked paper 2 @ 1" x 5 7/8"
Grey patterned paper 2 @ 1" x 5 7/8"
Floral patterned paper 2 1/4" x 5 7/8"
I attached the patterned papers to the
gold cardstock to create a panel for the front of the card.
I created two flowers using pale pink
velum and my Couture Creations CO724161 flower die.
When I placed them on the front of the card they faded into the background.
I inked the edges of the cardstock with a gold ink cube to help the flowers stand out
and tie them to the gold already on the card.
finished the flowers off and added a little sparkle to the card.
I die cut the sentiment four times from white cardstock and once from
gold cardstock.
These were attached to each other with the
gold layer on top.
The sentiment was then added to the centre right of the card.
Card No. 2
I chose three papers from the pad and trimmed them to
5 1/2" square, 5 1/4" square and 5" square.
The edges of each piece was inked with a black ink cube and attached to the card base,
largest layer on the bottom working up to the smallest layer.
white (uncoloured) curtain lace to it using
Mod Podge once again.
A strip of burgundy patterned paper was cut 1" by 5 1/2" and a
top and bottom of this strip, with approximately 1/4" showing.
This was added to the card front with a layer of chipboard behind it.
I created another of the pink
velum flowers so I had three to place across the centre of the card.
To create the sentiment I stamped "It's Your Day" from the
I trimmed the sentiment and matted it onto some of the
This was attached to the card with a strip of chipboard behind it
so it sits flat against the lace layer.
Card No. 3
This is perhaps the simplest of the three cards.
I cut a piece of patterned gold cardstock to 5 5/8" square
I ran the white cardstock through my
Big ShotI think it is a Kaisercraft folder but not sure.
As the embossing folder was not big enough to cover the
whole piece of cardstock I trimmed it down to 4 7/8" square.
I cut 4 circles from the coloured curtain lace, in decreasing sizes.
When I layered them on top of each other I lost the definition of each circle
so I cut circles from the pale pink
velum to match the size of the lace circles,
inked the edges of the velum with a black ink cube and
attached the lace to the
velum using Art Glitter glue.
Next I attached the four circles on top of each other to create my flower.
Three black
crystals added to the centre of the flower
bring in a black element to go with the sentiment.
The finished flower is approximately 3 1/4" in diameter.
The flower is attached to the bottom left of the card front.
The sentiment for this card was cut using
Uniquely Creative's Brush Scrip Sentiments die
Here is my process video
I hope you enjoy watching both my videos and try this technique for yourself.
It is very easy and lots of fun and I still have the cardstock I created to use on another project..
Thank you for spending part of your day here with me today
Till next time
Stay safe
