To complement the artistic designs, this collection also
includes embellishments such as die cuts, clear stamps, gems, tags, buttons,
ribbons and more to help you create the perfect project, whatever the occasion.
Today, Kathy is going to take you step by step to create the
sweetest stepper card using the stunning Painted Blooms collection! This card
shape is so popular and paired with the Painted Blooms, this design will be a dream come true!
What you Need
Dovecraft Painted Blooms 8x8 Paper Pad, Mini Bows, Clear
Stamp, Pink Pearl Effects, 6x6 Card Blank
First Edition Scalloped Circle Dies
Simply Creative Chipboard Alphabet and Number Stickers
How to Make
1. Use
the largest die from your First Edition Scalloped Circle die set to cut into a Dovecraft 6x6 card blank. When die cutting, make sure the die is overlapping the card crease at
the top so that you are left with a card that still folds.
2. Fold
the top flap of your card design in half to create the easel.
3. Die
cut two large scallop circles on two complementing sheets of Dovecraft Painted Blooms
papers. Adhere one of your scallop circle die cuts to the front flap, ensuring
to only stick the die cut paper to the lower
half of your card.
4. Place
the second scalloped circle die cut on to the inside of the card – this will
form your base. You will need to trim the edge where it meets the card fold.
5. Use
the second and third largest die in your Scalloped Circles die set on to
coordinating Painted Bloom Sheets. Layer and glue your die cuts on to the card
front.
6. Use
the pink, Simply Creative Alphabet stickers to write the word ‘Mum’ on the base
of your card. This will also act as a stopper. Glue a Painted Blooms bow underneath
your sentiment.
7. Die
cut a circle on to leftover white card using the second smallest scalloped
circle die from your set. Use the Painted Blooms ‘Especially for you’ clear
stamp in the centre. Once dry, create a border of small dots using pink Dovecraft
3D Pearl Effects.
8. Adhere
the sentiment to the front of your card using 3D foam pads. Finish your design
by sticking a Painted Blooms mini bow to the top of your card design. Your card
should look like this:
This gorgeous
design is so effective and will be wonderful to use throughout the year for a
