Vintage Journal Cards - Flowers

Hello bloggers

Bec Jefferis here.  I wanted to pop in and share a card I made this weekend, using Meg's Garden NEW Journal cards - floral designs.

These are absolutely stunning floral designs with so much versatility to be used on cards, in happy mail, and as part of your journal.

I have made this card for a dear friend's birthday, in fact she was the one that gave me the dimensions of this unique card.

Of which you'll understand when you see the pictures and video below...

I used the blue tits journal card on the front with the blue watercolour background paper, that come with the card kits in Meg's NEW products.

I used navy watercolour paints to add some splatter dots and used crafters grass to nestle the image on the front of card.

I backed the journal card with a navy card stock and scratched the edges to create added dimension.

This is what the inside of the card looks like...

I used four more of the floral journal cards to create the pop up display. 

They sit so well together backed with the pink watercolour background paper.  I used a rub on birthday sentiment to finish the card.

I have made a video of the card opening for you to see the full effect.

I hope you have enjoyed some different inspiration on the blog today.  Hope you get the chance to use your Meg's Garden products in a similar way.

Have a wonderful day

Take Care

Bec
