My Favorite Things - Stitched Blooms Card Kit Release Day!

Hello everyone!  The time has finally come to purchase the beautiful Stitched Blooms Card Kit from My Favorite Things!

I have one last card to share with you today using these gorgeous stitched flower Die-namics.  I love bold colors and color contrasts and I thought that red and white flowers would be perfect for this card.  I actually made this as a non-traditional wedding card for my cousin.

 

To start, I first trimmed a piece of Kraft Card Stock to 4.25" x 5.5" and scored it on the long side at 4.25" to make my card base.  I then heat embossed the BG Balloon Strings Background Stamp with Super Fine White Embossing Powder.  I also heat embossed this same stamp onto some heat resistant Acetate.

I then trimmed the front panel of my card into two pieces and placed the acetate in the middle (lining up the heat embossed pattern).  In retrospect, it probably would have been much easier to glue the acetate in first and then do the heat embossing.

For the red flowers, I simply blended some Candied Apple and Abandoned Coral Distress Oxide Inks onto smooth white Card Stock and then diecut my flowers.  For the white and white portions of the flowers, I just diecut them from Whip Cream Card Stock.  For my sentiment, I diecut the Congrats Die-namics a few times from white Card Stock and then glued it to my card.

I added a few drops of both Ivory Seashell and Autumn Red Crystal Nuvo Drops to the centers of the flowers.  Lastly, I finished the card by adding a few of the Sparkling Sequins (which are so gorgeous!) that come with the kit.

In case you missed it, here are the other cards that I made with this kit.
