Rolled Flower 2

Hiyah!

I have another rolled flower cut file for you today, I promised some more of them :). I went with a daisy style this time and kept the outer petals larger than the ones in the middle but it’s more of a subtle graduation this time, it looked more natural when it was finished. I know it’s a while til Mothers Day but I have a Mothering Sunday sentiment for you too today.

I was feeling brave when I made this card, can you tell by the colour scheme? I just love this paper (GCD – Chic Bebe) but its no shrinking violet so I just had to go with it, I pulled all manner of apple green items from my stash then played around til I was happy.

I stitched my paper onto white card, straight edges look naked to me now without stitching on them;) I printed my sentiment onto textured card and cut with Labels Eighteen and layered on top of Labels Five with a few pearls. My Lace came gathered so I gathered my ribbon to match and nestled my leaves from Branches 1 and rolled flowers between the ribbon and the labels.

Here is a close up of my flowers, I curled the outer petals outwards then popped a pearl in the middle of each flower and curled the petals around the pearl inwards slightly.

Good Afternoon!

I have a Motorcycle shaped card cut file for you today which I made for a family members birthday, I designed this card for my own use and hadn’t planned to share it here, but if you can make use of it, you are very welcome. I feel I should warn you that the file does have several small pieces but if you follow either the black/pink picture or my card you should be ok to figure out which order to layer them in, also I have placed the pieces in color groups which I hope helps too.

I cut the shaped card in black then cut out the bike shaped layer in dark grey then cut the other “metal” parts in 2 different shades of lighter grey. The seat, handlebar grip and tyres get cut out in black and the lights are cut from orange and red card. You can chose which colour you would like your bike to be by cutting the petrol tank, side cover and mudguards (all shown in pink in the image below) in your chosen colour. I made a black bike so it resembles the recipients bike. I shaded all of my pieces with black soot and weather wood distress inks before gluing together then coloured the holes in the pipes with a fine liner black pen.

New…Rolled Flower

Hey Guys!

I have a couple of cut files for you today, a rolled flower and the scalloped card base then thought why not add the digi sentiment too. Rolled flowers have been on my list for a while now and had to give myself a kick up the bum to finally gave it a go, it was a bit fiddly and time consuming but I’m glad I have one done and I have a few more planned which should be a lot quicker too. I needed a scalloped card to follow this weeks sketch at Card Patterns, I would normally use a Spellbinders die but I wanted this bad boy to be approx 6 inches square so I made a scalloped card base cut file. The card base has a looped edge but you can just remove those insert cuts to get a solid scalloped card as I have here.

The flowers have alot of dimension, to bring some more depth to the card, I ruffled some half inch satin ribbon and popped my sentiment frame up onto 3D foam pads. My final touch was to add some pearls to the middle of my flowers. I enjoyed making this card even though the dimension of it took me well out of my comfort zone, I hope you will have fun using these cut files too :)
