Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Anna Griffin Papers

Click to Enlarge
Hi Everybody,

This little 5x7 card is created using papers from Anna Griffin along with the decoupage pieces needed for the flowers.

It is made in the Hinged card style that I love to use and the inside has also been lined with the same papers.

I have cut my base card from  Luscious Lime   from the Celebrations Collection

From Spellbinders Oval Bliss   I have used  #4 for the base layer and then used it again with  #3 to create a frame

I have placed the frame over a stamped and embossed sentiment  and added each layer with foam tape in between

I have used some pearl flourish from Want2Scrap around the inner edge of the frame so that it surrounds the words and added a small tear-drop pearl onto each of the scallops for a really pretty effect

The ribbon is simply wrapped around the layers with a double bow added to the top and the central flower over the knot is from Wild Orchid Crafts

The flowers are precut and all I needed to do was add them to the card and I decided to place mine so that they are partly onto the oval.

It may not be quite my style but it is pretty all the same.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

It may not be quite your "style", but the ARTIST in you tried something a little different and came up with something BEAUTIFUL! It still has your signature of Flowers, Ribbons and Pearls.
