Hi card making friends, welcome back.   Today I have a New Video – Stitched Floral Card using the Spellbinders Stitched Die of the Month Club for February.  Tomorrow (Feb 27) is the LAST DAY to subscribe to get any of the February Clubs so I’m slipping in just under the wire with this one.

I actually had this card made in different colors.  When it was finished, I HATED it, so I tossed it in the bin, and made this one instead, LOL.  Does that ever happen to you?

How to create the Stitched Floral Card

Start by die cutting all the pieces required in list above.

Next, using the Distress Oxide Inks in Pine Needles, Rustic Wilderness, and Wilted Violet, apply ink to add shadow and depth with small round blending brushes.

Next, use DMC cotton in #552, 520, 208 and 988 to stitch all the areas.  Use the Gold Metallic DMC Thread to stitch the dark purple flower center

Then, create a white A2 sized card base, 4-1/4″ x 11″, score and fold at 5-1/2″.  Attach the Waterfall card front.

Stitched Floral Card – Layering it Together.

Start by gluing the green stitched background piece to the card front.  Place a couple of large heavy acrylic handles over it to help it dry flat.

Next, glue the three flower pieces together, again, adding acrylic handles to squish them flat.

Then, when those two pieces are dry, glue the flower to the center of the card front.  Again, place the acrylic handles over the entire card until the glue dries.

Finally, Glimmer foil a sentiment in polished brass on black cardstock using the Glimmer Sentiments For Everyday set.

Embellish with Gold Mix Color Essential Gems.  A Large one in the center of the card, and the 3 largest in the center of each of the dark green circles.
