PAPER PIECED BOUQUET

If you're like me, you love the look of paper piecing. The card I am sharing with you today is done with that technique. Join me in creating a card similar to this one by following the tutorial below!

SUPPLIES:

White cardstock

Designer Series Paper

Paper Pumpkin Memorable Meadows, March 2024

Black ink

Big Shot

Basket Weave embossing folder

Green Baker's Twine

Stampin' Dimensionals

Sparkle

INSTRUCTIONS:

Fold a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of white cardstock in half, creasing it well with a bone folder.

Use a deckled edged rectangle die that measures 3 3/4" x 5" to cut a piece of white cardstock. Emboss it with a basket weave embossing folder. Set it aside.

Use the 2 7/8" x 4" deckled rectangle to cut another piece of white cardstock. On this piece, stamp the two- flower bouquet from the March 2024 Paper Pumpkin kit, or any other image that would work for this technique, using black ink.

Select a scrap of Designer Series Paper that would make a good flower, as well as one that would be good for leaves, and a little for yellowish flower centers. With the same black ink, stamp the flower, center and leaf elements onto the DSP. Fussy cut these pieces.

Adhere the pieces over their stamped counterparts.

Use Wink of Stella or any glittery pen you prefer to add a little glimmer to the centers of the flowers.

Tie a bow in a length of baker's twine and adhere it to the stem of the flowers.

Adhere the finished piece to the embossed cardstock.

Use Stampin' Dimensionals to add the finished piece to the white card base.
