Hearetfelt Creations ~ Slim Diamond Floral

 Hi Friends,

Today I have a fun fully loaded slimline for all of you. I have used the Diamond Die sets by Heartfelt Creations to create this fur backdrop for these florals made from the Sweet Magnolia Blooms. Lets take a look....





Directions:

Cut a piece of white card stock to 9 1/8” x 7” and score in half at 3 1/2”.  Using the HCD3-7431 Slim Eyelet Rectangle Dies and Luxe Gold Card Stock cut one piece from the largest die and one from the second largest die from the set. Now from the HCD3-7432 Slim Basic Rectangle Dies cut the cut the largest and 3rd largest from the HCDP1-2149 Feathery Florals Paper Collection Sheet 3B (large) and 11B (Smaller). Glue these patterned papers to the Luxe Gold cut in the previous step. Layer these as shown using 3D foam tape to the card base. Using the HCD3-7449 Slim Eyelet Heart Rectangle Die Set cut the sentiment dies from both white and Luxe Gold Card stock. Glue these layers slightly off set so that the gold peeks out from behind the white top layer. Glue these along the bottom of the peach colored paper on the card front. Using the HCD1-7228 Lacey Diamonds Die Set use the two smallest dies together and cut two times out of white card stock. This will cut the inner portion of both diamonds. Using the 2nd largest die from the HCD1-7226 Diamond Basic Die Set, and the largest and 3rd largest dies from the HCD1-7227 Eyelet Diamond Die Set cut the outside portions of the diamond pieces. Before assembling as shown, apply dries clears glue with a hydra sponge to each of the die cuts and sprinkle with Art Glitter in Crystal. Once dry layer the diamonds, using both Dries Clear adhesive and Adhesive Foam Strips to achieve some depth and dimensions between layers. Attach the diamonds to the card base by over lapping them slightly. TOP TIP: Use 3D Adhesive and Double Dots Foam Circles to help with the multiple heights.

Using HCPC-3948 Sweet Magnolia Blooms Cling Stamp Set Stamp the medium flower 2x and the small flower 3x onto Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper using Carnation Archival Ink. Using HCD1-7453 Feathery Florals Cling Stamp Set Stamp the large floral spray 2x and then small floral spray 1x onto the same white paper with Olive Archival Ink. Now Using HCDA2-450 Stack and Store Daubers color the flowers using Pink Peony and Carnation Archival Inks. Then color the Floral Sprays using the Leaf Green and Olive Archival Inks. Then cut out with the coordinating dies. Before running the Sweet Magnolia flowers through the coordinating 3D Mold, ink the edges of the flower petals with Geranium Archival Ink. Once shaped with the shaping mold, use the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit to press the centers of each flower and to pierce a hole into the center of each flower. Now add some Bright Pearl Stamens - Small into the center of each flower and secure with hot glue. Lastly, add Rajni’s Crystal Clear Glitter to the flower tips using a Hydra Sponge and Dries Clear Adhesive.

To complete the card simply arrange the floral sprays onto the card and adorn with Sweet Magnolia Flowers. Adhere with a glue gun for a secure placement. Lastly, add pearls with a glue gun strategically placed around the card and add a few sequins on the flower petals using Dries Clear Adhesive. Finish the inside of the card as desired.

I hope you enjoyed that as much as I enjoyed creating it for each of you! Check out my personal project in the Heartfelt Creations Gallery to find out what products I used for this project.
