Grateful Heart Floral

Hello Crafty Friends!  Tracy here with a post featuring some new items, as well as, an older favorite!  So, let's get right into the details.

I began this project by stamping the florals from the LDRS Corner Garden set in black ink and then heat embossing it using clear embossing powder.  Once those were stamped, I began coloring the images using alcohol markers.

When those were done, I used the LDRS Corner Garden Coordinating Die to cut those pieces.  While I was already cutting, I went ahead and cut the LDRS Modern Trellis Coverplate as well.  I absolutely love cover dies!  They just add so much interest and texture with minimal effort!

I used the LDRS Dan-D-Lion ink pad to do some ink blending in the corners that I was going to place my florals.  I had decided on this sentiment from the LDRS Thankful Flowers Slimline set because I loved it so much.  The other thing that I love is die cut sentiments, so I'm super excited to see dies with the stamp sentiments!

Just as I did for the florals, I stamped the sentiment using black ink and heat embossed it using clear embossing powder.  I used the LDRS Thankful Flowers Slimline Coordinating Die to trim that out as well.  Now I'm ready to assemble!

I glued the trellis die to my card base and adhered the florals in the corners using foam tape for dimension.  I nestled the sentiment in between the florals and adhered that with foam tape as well.  I'm pretty sure that I've said this before, I don't know how to make cards without dimension!  Once all of the elements were adhered, I added some gold embellishments to finish up.

I hope you enjoyed this project, and I hope you'll stop by the LDRS website to check out all of the new products!  Thanks for joining me today!
