Good Things

Good morning!

I was finally able to use just bits and pieces of the new time pieces 

to get this 1 of a kind card for a friend!

I love how the hands barely show under the beautiful

Clematis flowers and foliage.

Of course there is lots of gold trimming as well, everything

looks better with a bit of gold or silver, right?

Find the material list for this card HERE

Card size:  4 3/4" X 6 3/4"

Make a shaped card (see video) with the outer die of the Decorative Circles Frame.  Lay the die over-lapping folded top by about 1/4", also cut another full front piece to glue onto card base (purple used here).

Cut the inner decorative die out of lavender decorative paper and out of Gold Luxe.  Cut the largest eyelet circle from purple cardstock and from Gold Luxe, also cut a foam sheet circle to fit under stacked purple and gold.  Glue sets together off setting slightly. Cut the next eyelet circle out of decorative lavender paper. Glue to card starting with largest to smallest die cuts (one set is popped up).

Stamp the clock using Tuxedo Black onto white cardstock, die cut decorative circle out of clock and the clock face, cut a circle of foam sheet to fit clock face as well.  Stamp extra hands and die cut, die cut from gold as well.  Stamp sentiment and die cut. Color decorative piece and sentiment piece.  Glue the decorative circle to the lavender eyelet circle (should just barely show) then glue the foam circle and sentiment onto decorative circle.

Cut a gold scallop circle large enough to barely show under the clock face and cut a piece of foam sheet to fit as well.  Glue the gold hands and colored hands onto clock face over printed hands, glue the clock face, gold scallop circle and foam circle onto card up in the left corner. 

Stamp flowers using Majestic Violet on Deluxe Flower Shaping Cardstock, sponge with the same color, die cut then form in the shaping mold (see videos).  Finish forming with the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit then glue 2 of the same size together per flower.  Insert white stamen (the larger flowers have the white bead stamen and the white pollen stamen.

Stamp leaves using Fern Green onto Deluxe Flower Shaping Cardstock, sponge with Leaf Green and Majestic Violet, die cut, sponge the backs then shape in the mold.

Use a hot glue gun or tacky glue to glue flowers and leaves onto left side of card up and over clock as well just leave part of it showing to give the idea of a timepiece to go with sentiment.

Glitter all the flowers and card front (try to keep glue off of gold cardstock).  Mix Shimmer Additive and 3D Lacquer together then paint onto leaves.

Thanks for visiting!

And while they were there, the time came for her baby to be born. She gave birth to her firstborn son. She wrapped him snugly in strips of cloth and laid him in a manger, because there was no lodging available for them.
