I am so happy to be one of the semi-finalist for the Heartfelt 2017 design team.
Here are my projects that got me to this point, I hope you will vote for me, just click the link
HERE.
Special Day
Cut the heart out of blue paper from Birds and Blooms,
use the cut out to trace another larger heart on white linen using the Magic
Matter tool and then fussy cut to make a frame for the heart.
Die cut the Decorative Oval and place under cut out heart
and glue into place cutting off excess.
Cut a piece of white Fun Foam and then cut with the heart
die and stack under heart cut out, glue in place, let dry thoroughly.
Cut a piece of pink paper from the Birds and Blooms paper
and adhere under all layers then glue to a card base of white linen folded (4 ½
X 6 ½”). Die cut the Delicate Border from
white linen twice (top and bottom) and glue in place.
Stamp, die cut and sponge color onto the Classic Leaf,
Birds, and Flowers then form all on a foam pad with flower forming tools. Glue flowers together and add Prills in the
centers and glitter to the petals.
Glue stems and flower to card front and foam tape little
birds, then add ribbon bow and ribbon pieces in the floral spray with glue and
glue dots.
Fussy cut a sentiment tag from the Birds and Blooms paper
and curl as a wave then glue in place, placing foam tape under the raised
portion.
Final additions: Pearl halves on the cross sections of
the Decorative oval, clear Wink of Stella on the leaves and birds.
Fish and Hibiscus
Cut scallop oval from a piece of 4 ½ X 6” chipboard (I
used the back chipboard of a water color pad) that has been covered with paper.
Cut same oval out of two pieces of 4 1/1 X 6” Fun Foam
and glue together to the back of the chipboard. When dry completely, sponged
purple on inside of oval covering chipboard edges, cover outside of chipboard
with purple Washi tape.
Stamp, die cut and color fish, flowers, coral, leaves and
shells. I used Copic markers for all but
the flowers and leaves, (they were sponged with two Distress colors each).
Form flowers with flower tools and mat then glue together
and add Prills and glitter.
Add fiber with glue and glue a piece of the avocado bag
to the side of the blue decorative base panel, then glue the oval cut out top panel (purple
decorative paper) to the base. Add fish
(glue the orange fish to the base and foam tape the green/blue fish to the base
under the orange fish).
Glue this stacked card to a folded white linen card stock
card measuring 4 ½ X 6”.
I then began adding the coral to the sides and bottom,
cutting away the extra length on the bottom portion of coral, add in some extra
shells where needed. The Oyster shell
with pearl is popped up.
Add in flowers at the top and stuff pieces of gauze in
between flowers and leaves for extra texture.
When everything was thoroughly dry, I went back and added
Wink of Stella, Stickles, Nuvo-clear (for bubbles), Glossy Accents and pearls
to my project.
Die cut borders and oval out of white linen card
stock-using a grid board, line up borders on oval so that tops and sides and
even and straight then add glue to oval only on inside edges of border so that
the excess oval and lining can be cut away.
Dry emboss a white linen panel measuring 4 7/8 X 6 with
embossing folder and glue to a folded white linen card, 6 3/16 X 5 1/16 then
foam tape oval/border combo to the top.
Stamp, die cut, color (on the back side of vellum) and
form Asters in double layers, making the second layer a bit smaller on each
except the small aster which are two layers of the same size.
Form/scrunch stamen to stand up and add glue to the ends
and then add Prills, Glue Dot stamen to each flower center.
Place flowers and leaves on oval die cut and glue in
place. Add crinkled bow with long tails
at the left top, arrange tails using extra Glue Dots where needed. Add
extra seam binding between flowers as desired.
Finish top of oval with pearls and add larger pearls to
each corner of the card.
Stamp, emboss and die cut sentiment on vellum and glue or
tie to top right of oval.
