I think you're really gonna love what HC's team has come up with this month, beautiful, Easter-like flowers with lovely coordinating die cuts! Here's a card that I made with this new collection:
Here's a close up of the die cut cross:
Card Instructions:
Cut 8 1/2" X 11" kraft card stock down to 4 1/4" X 11", score at 5 1/2" mark and fold. Layer a 5 1/8" panel of black card stock onto a 5 1/4" piece of cream card stock. Take a 5" piece of patterned paper, distress edges and sponge with Vintage Photo distress ink. Add a 2 1/4" X 5" panel of patterned paper across bottom of card. Cut a small strip of Doily Lace punched card stock and adhere that to the underside of this panel. Add another panel, this one being 2" X 4" going down vertically. Sew these panels onto the 5" square of patterned paper. Adhere two different kinds of lace and tie off with a button and twine. Cut out Labels Eighteen, sponge middle and trace inner perimeter with Spica pen before removing from die. Stamp sentiment in the middle. Take 2 Perfect Petals die cuts and glue them to the back of the Labels Eighteen panel. Adhere to card base with dimensionals. Die cut the cross in patterned paper, add silver pearl and adhere to sentiment panel. Add pearl flourishes.
