A Lavender Card

Hello, everyone!

It's Nancy back with a new project share!

I have created a card using the beautiful new Lavender with Mint Collection.

One of my favorite colour combinations is purple with green,
and this collection is just that...and more!

For my first card, I have focused on the purple,
and made a tri-fold card.

Here it is folded flat:


This is what it looks like standing up:


I cut the base from purple cardstock,
then I printed two of the Lavender with Mint Papers, and cut the card panels out.


Each panel is decorated with fussy cut images from the Collection.
The "Les Fleurs" on the front cover is from the Summer Garden Cut and Create.


Although I've made mine as a card,
I think this would make a great journal insert.
With that in mind, I added a belly band to the back panel,
and tucked in the tag from the collection.


The cut file includes an envelope.
I cut it out of purple cardstock, and added this beautiful journal card to the front of it.
I added a fussy cut flower to the back for a flap tuck.


It makes such a pretty set!

Mint Beautiful Thoughts Card

Hello, everyone!

It's Nancy back with you today.
I have created another card using the new Lavender with Mint Collection.

As I said last time, one of my favorite colour combinations is purple with green,
and this collection is just that...and more!

Last time I focused on the "Lavender" and this time I'm focusing on the "Mint"!

 Here's my card layed flat:


Here it is standing up:


The elements of this collection are ideal for an easel card.
The base is made from green cardstock,
and the layers were cut from one of the Lavender with Mint Papers.


I fussy cut the flowers, butterfly, and ticket sentiment,
from the collection.
I inked all the edges before assembling everything.


To finish it all off, I added a pretty double-looped bow and some pearls.
Although it doesn't show in the photos, 
I went over everything with my sparkle marker,
so it has a really lovely sparkle!

Tag No. 2

 Hello everyone & welcome!

Leanne here with you today and I have a pretty tag I would love to share.

I have created my tag with digital patterned papers from Meg's Garden Papercraft Etsy Store.
The papers are from the Lavender & Mint Collection.
These are very pretty papers and would be ideal for any paper crafter.


Simply make:
My tag measures 9.5 x 17cm and is constructed from green cardstock. I have distressed the edges with a paper distressing tool, then inked the edges with distress ink: old paper.
Trim digital patterned paper to 8.5 x 15.5cm, distress, ink then adhere to green tag base.


Next fussy cut ephemera pieces, ink then fix in place as shown.




Add lace, ribbon and self-adhesive pearls to finish.

Until next time.
Thank you so much for stopping by.
I hope you have a wonderful day & happy creating.

Tag Your It...

  Hello everyone & welcome!

Leanne here with you today & I have a Large Tag I would love to share.

I have created my tag with these stunning digital patterned papers called Lavender & Mint. They are available to purchase from Meg's Garden Papercraft Etsy Store. 


 I love to create tags in different sizes. They are wonderful to add to gifts, as home décor, to use as a decoration and to hang on a door knob. 

 
Simply make:

My large chipboard tag measures,14 x 21cm. 
Trim digital patterned paper to 14 x 21cm, trim to fit tag shape, paper distress the edges, then ink edges with distress ink milled lavender before adhering to chipboard.
Add lace trims along bottom edge of tag as shown.


Fussy cut & die cut ephemera pieces from the cut & create sheets, ink the edges then arrange pieces before fixing in place.
The wording has been adhered with 3D foam tape.
 


To finish add cheese cloth, paper roses, self-adhesive pearls, and some lace to hang your tag.


Until next time.
Thank you so much for stopping by,
I hope you have a wonderful day & happy creating.
