Hello everyone!
Pansies are amongst my favorite flowers so I knew I
want to make a card project with them. I have used products from
Signs of Spring digital stamp set
This set has so many elements to choose from! Let me show you how
I made my purple pansycard.
I have to tell you this card started out with a lot more ambition. I
was going to make a wreath with all of the flowers and it looked so
daunting I had to pare it down. So I printed out 10 pansies. I
did flip them and the top row is a bit smaller than the bottom row.
I started my coloring with the leaves. I knew they would all be
the same so I wanted to choose those colors first.
I started coloring the flowers and as you can see I didn’t like the
first one, I did like the second one better but I didn’t use it.
As you can see I eventually went with a much lighter and simpler blend
on the flowers. I also added thin black lines to the center of the flowers with a
black fine liner pen. After they were colored I
fussy cut them and went around the edges with a black marker.
I actually cut the flowers off the stems and made most of the
stems shorter so I could tuck them in. I made a lavender
card base and tore a strip of purple gingham paper which
revealed the white core and I really liked that. I adhered a
kraft colored paper doily on the left side and let it go off the
edge a bit. I stamped it with a sentiment from my stash. I die cut
a small doily from white card stock as a base for the flowers/leaves.
I foam taped the flowers on first. Then I adhered the leaves/stems flat
on the surface. I used tiny gold flat back beads as the embellishment.
I used Stickles on the centers of the pansies. I also found an enamel heart
that matched perfectly. If you didn’t have one, you could die cut one that matches
and cover it with Glossy Accents. After that, my project was done!
You could use any flowers from the stamp set…they are all so pretty.
