Craftwork Cards Fairyland Card 3

Craftwork Cards Fairyland Card


This Fairyland card I used a Tonic die from their monthly subscription box 1 to frame the topper. I thought the leaves went with the leaves silhouetted at the top of the topper.




I mounted the topper on black card to go with the whole silhouette detail on the topper. I cut four leaves out of green vellum with a gold hue to the vellum. I wove the stalks through the frame.






I used the sentiment from the kit that I thought went with the topper and arranged a black velvet ribbon tied into a bow at the top of the tag.





I then used a white gel pen to add little dots on the background as well as the topper and sentiment tag to look like sparkles from a distance.

Craftwork Cards Fairyland Card 2


Craftwork Cards Fairyland Card




When I first got this kit I wasn't sure on what kind of cards to do but the more I have looked at the kit loads of card designs have come to mind.




The topper has been mounted on a Spellbinders heart circle die cut. I liked the detail the hearts gave to the boarder.





The flowers I die cut from a die I got a few years ago and have no idea where it was from. I cut the flowers out of the coordinating papers and black cardstock. In the center of two of the flowers I added Craftwork Cards Card Candi and the third flower I put a rolled flower in the center. I then made a bow out of gardening twine to add to the card.





The sentiment I put on the third die from the Spellbinders die set to get the embossed hearts that I felt went with the words of the sentiment.

Craftwork Cards Fairy Card

At last after making my Christmas Cards for 2018 I have got on with using some of my kits and dies that are of the same theme. 






I cut out the mason jar on my Brother ScanNCut using a file from http://shop.loriwhitlock.com/mason-jar-set/ I cut out the jar out of paper from the Fairyland kit, also cutting out the lid in Centura Pearl and Kraft Card.





Around the jar I wound some gardening twine and then made a handle out of the same twine. I made a flower out of off cuts of paper from the kit and black card as I felt it would set off the whole card better than using the coloured flowers in the kit. The centre flower is made from tiny rolled up spiral flower.





I cut out the fairy on the toadstools out of one of the toppers from the kit (I have since just bought the stamp sets that compliment this kit, they arrived this morning).I cut out the flower from a Tattered Lace die of a Fushia in black card and also the smaller mushroom was also a Tattered Lace die that came in the Fairy Door set.




I finished off the card with one of the sentiment tags from the kit and two more flowers using the paper from the kit and black card. the large flower has a piece of Card Candi in the centre.
