Fresh Packed Floral Card | Spellbinders Small Die of the Month

It’s the 6th of the month, which means, NEW Spellbinders Club Kits are here – Yeah!

Today I’m sharing my Fresh Packed Floral card created using the Spellbinders Small Die of the Month (Pansy Seed Company), the Embossing Folder of the Month (Market Weave), and the Stamp and Die of the Month (Fresh Packed).

In this tutorial, I’ll walk you through how to:

  • Layer the die-cut florals for dimension
  • Ink blend and assemble the cute flower pot
  • Create texture with embossing
  • and finish it all off with a fun ink-splattered background.

Be sure to read all the way to the bottom–you won’t believe the BONUS GIFT included this month when you order the All-Clubs Crate.  I can’t wait to start creating with it!

How to create the Fresh Packed Floral Card | Spellbinders Small Die of the Month:

 

Create the card base:

Start by creating an A2-sized white card base  (4-1/4″ x 11″, score and fold at 5-1/2″).

Next, cut a panel of Waterfall cardstock to 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″.  Using a large blending brush, blend Mist Ink around the edges, leaving the center slightly lighter for a soft glow.

Place it inside the Market Weave Embossing Folder and run it through your die cutting machine.

Then, place the panel in a splat box and splatter with white paint.  Set aside to dry.

Once dry, adhere the panel tot he front of the card base and trim the edges for a clean finish.

PRO-TIP – When you emboss a card front, it often shrinks slightly.  After adhering it to the card bas, use long scissors to trim the base so everything lines up perfectly.


Create the Flowers:

Cut both sizes of the pansies from Lavender cardstock.  (three large and two small).

Ink blend the larger center pieces with Lilac Ink to deepen the color and add dimension.  Lightly ink blend the back petals as well for extra depth.

For the small flower centers:

  • Die cut the larger center piece from yellow cardstock.
  • Die cut the tiny heart detail from white cardstock.

To assemble:

  • Adhere the two back petals behind the main flower layer
  • Attach the darker center layer using the etch guide lines
  • Add the yellow center
  • Finish with the tiny white heart detail at the top of the yellow center.

Create the Leaves:

Die cut five stems and multiple leaves from Rainforest Cardstock.

Ink blend the lower portion of the leaves with Rustic Wilderness Ink to create shadows and add interest.


Create the Flower Pot:

Die cut the flower pot pieces from Black and Anchor Cardstock.  I used this combo on THIS CARD last week, and I really like how it turned out.

BEFORE Assembling,  ink blend the left side and bottom of the main pot piece with VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink to create realistic shading and depth.

Adhere the black rim to the top of the pot, followed by the narrower Anchor layer.  Attach the black center piece from the back, gluing only the ends so the opening remains free to slide in the stems.  I put 1/4 of a foam square on each end to accomplish this.


Heat emboss the Sentiment:

Stamp the sentiment in VersaMark Ink onto a scrap of black cardstock.  Cover with white embossing powder, tap off the excess and heat set.

Die-cut using the coordinating die.


Assemble the Card:

Adhere the flower pot to the bottom of the card using thick foam squares.

Slide the stems in and secure both ends with glue.

Attach the flowers with foam squares, clustering them to hide the tops of the stems.

Add the leaves around the arrangement with foam squares, and place one leaf at the base of the pot for a natural, fallen look.

Adhere the sentiment to the left side above the pot using foam squares.

Finish with a sprinkle of Silver mix Color Essential Gems for a touch of sparkle.

  1. Looks so realistic; like I could go pick some! The teal and lavender are so stunning together. Great art piece, Sandi!

  2. The pansy card is beautiful! Please tell me, was it difficult to get the small pieces glued? My eyesight is not what it used to be, and I find myself enjoying detailed layering stencils more than tiny die cuts.
    I am very tempted to enroll in the small die club after seeing your card!

    1. Thank you Sharon. I have bad eyes too, but it wasn’t bad. I use my wax-tipped embellishment wand to pick up the pieces and that really helps. Only the tiny white piece on the flower center was really small
