Shaker Card with Foam Flowers

On By celestelindIn Crafting1 Comment

This is my second card using Scrapboys “Loveland” paper collection – it is simply beautiful, isn’t it!! I’m not sure why the colors purple and pink appeal to me so much, but I just love working with them.

I also love the shaker elements – this is one from Creative Embellishments, and what I did was cut out a circle from one of the cut apart sheets, and I removed the center part, just fitting the circle on the outside rim of the top of the shaker box. The inside I cut from one of the other papers just to fit just under the base.

The foam flower are a bit of a disappointment, looking back on it now I almost wish I had not used foam, but colors match at least. When I’m crafting, I never seem to be able to create exact replicas!

Thanks for looking! I’ll be sure and create another couple of items from this gorgeous paper – stay tuned!!

Chrysanthemums in Loveland

This is a card using Scrapboys “Loveland”, and (of course) Heartfelt Creations flower dies.

I also used a scalloped diamond, which I covered with fussy cut flowers from the papers so much, that by the time I got my dimensional flowers made and glued on, you can’t really tell it’s a diamond at all!!

I was very proud of myself matching (in shape, anyway, the purple flower almost exactly like the one on the paper….mine is quite a bit darker, but looks so much like it! I used HFC Sunflower dies , and the pinks are their magnolias.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Enjoying this Gorgeous paper from Scrapboys! This is at least my 2nd card using this paper, maybe my third, and the more I look at it, the more I like it!!

One thing I realized after finishing this card: I need to stay true to my “style” – so many times I try to copy or emulate what other crafters do, but I am seldom happy with the results.

I like this one.

I used a Spellbinders die for the lacy center piece (and the corners on the inside) and my favorite flowers from Heartfelt Creations, the Classic Rose, Garden Lily, and some Lilacs.

The printed sentiment is from the paper pack, inside is from Creative Expressions,

Thanks for stopping by & looking!

Actually NOT Heartfelt Creations Papers

Actually I don’t think I’ll ever be able to stop using HFC paper and dies, I own so many of their collections, I’ll probably have paper left even when I die.

This first card uses LemonCraft paper, a wooden chippie for the clock (so cute!), and HFC flower dies to make the Hydrangea and Lilies.

This second card comes from Scrapboys, wish I could remember the name of the collection right off, but isn’t that center image just gorgeous!!

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope I’ve inspired you to create something beautiful today!
