A Tag Shaped Card

 Hello and welcome here.  I wanted to join the Challenge over at Art Impressions Blog and it's a shape challenge.  No square or rectangular cards.

I also used 4052 Flower Set 1, 5474 WC Flower Set 5, and 5476 WC Foliage Set 5.

Window Box - 856

Floral Paper Cards

 Hello and welcome here.  I've been perusing Pinterest and was inspired to make some cards.

Card Sizes:  4.25" x 5.5"

I was inspired by this card found on Pinterest HERE.  I really liked the floral and solid together.

And I had some scraps left over and HAD to use them, so I came up with this card.

Thanks for stopping by.

My friend Monica shared an interactive pull-out page for her mini album HERE.  I adjusted it for a card...because who doesn't love surprises in their cards!!!  

The BoBunny Selfie frame and Carta Bella paper came from one of my FAVOURITE stores...Country Craft Creations! (You have got to check out Tamra's Facebook group, it is FULL of tutorials...like Monica's that I shared here!!)

What's this?? A tag? I used a cut-a-part for the tag front, but inside...

Tada! I watercoloured some blossoms for a fun surprise!!

The mechanics from the side.

I fussy cut the flower pots, watering can, jar and trowel from the paper.  On the heart I used Nuvo glitter but from this angle you can see the shine.

Orange is not one of my go to colours but I like using orange for masculine cards, so I'm sharing a masculine card using the sketch for inspiration.  I used this paper for a folio I was working on and decided to use the scraps to make a card!

I die cut stars in the same background colour to give it some dimension because it looked flat after using 3 pattened papers for the rest of the card.
