The paper is so pretty and some of them are gold foil.

Here is a closer look at my flowers. I used my Cricut Artiste Cartridge for the flowers and the leaves. I added copper and gold brads to the centers.

DCWV Butterfly Garden Card

Good morning crafty friends,
I wanted to share a card I created using the beautiful DCWV Butterfly Garden Stack paper.
I also used several cut files from the Pazzles Craft Room to create this pretty card.
dcwv-butterfly-garden-475_thumb1
Here is a view of the card closed. It is the Gate Fold Card from the Pazzles Craft Room Fun Folds Card Set. The center floral medallion is a doily cut file and a flower cut file from the craft room. As you can see I just layered and sized the “flower” so that it had 12 layers. I lightly inked the edges of each layer with my Chocolate Ink and then staggered them. I added a pearl gem to the center. On the doily I simply added some White Opal Liquid Pearls for some more visual interest.

Here is a view of the card with the belly band off and opened. The center is a scalloped flap and the sides are decorated with the deco flourish from the Pazzles Craft Room.
dcwv-butterfly-garden-card-open-475_
This is a view of the center fold with the flap opened. I added in a beautiful Quick Quotes Vellum sentiment. I didn’t want to cover up the pretty design on the paper. I also cut it so that the design of the paper would more or less remain in tact. You can follow the floral stem up from the bottom center to the top center as well as the floral sprig. The picture doesn’t show that the paper is a really light pink with a deep chocolate print. It isn’t black and pink. So I inked the edges of the paper with my Chocolate Ink Pad. The center sentiment area is left blank. This card is for this month’s IFTL recipients so they need to be blank.
deco-element-cu-475_thumb1
Here is a closer look at one of the side panels with the deco element cut file. I added a pearl in the center. I used some Maltball Bazzill Smoothie cardstock and it cut like butter.

Citrus Stack Card

Good morning crafty friends,
Today I am sharing a project I created for today’s Die Cuttin’ Divas Challenge blog. They offer a new challenge each Tuesday.

Today’s challenge is a color challenge: Orange and White
 citrus-stack-card-475
Here’s my card. I used the Card Deco 8113 Cut File from PCW. It is a sneak peek and will be available this Saturday.  I used the DCWV Citrus Stack for the paper. It is pre-glittered and very pretty. I got the 6x6 stack. That is something different for me as I only get the 12x12 stacks. I am a scrapbooker at heart. BUT, I couldn't pass it up as it was on clearance at my local Michaels and they didn't have it in 12x12...so there you have it. My first ever 6x6 stack. Money is really tight these days so anything on clearance is a fabulous find :-)

Here is a view of the card slightly opened. Both edges of the cut file have the pretty scalloped edging.

citrus stack rose2-475
Here is a closer view of the pretty roses and the gorgeous decorative element. I added some White Opal Liquid Pearls and some flat back pearls and done. It was a really easy card to complete...and easy is good!!!!
