Hi Everybody,This beautiful card is created using another of the Create a Flower dies from Spellbinders.
This is the Stargazer Lily and it is one that looks far more complicated than it is ... so don't be put off.
On the video I have shown you how to make this flower for two different purposes.
Here I have made just two of the Lilies and added them to a card and I think the effect is very pretty.
The flowers them selves have been colored with alcohol markers to give the shading as in the real flower
You can do that with anything that you have in your own personal "Stash" ... watercolor pencils, alcohol markers, pastels, distress inks
And lilies come in many colors so you can make them suit your color scheme.
Scroll down to watch the video on how to make these very realistic flowers ...
Here I have added them to a little porcelain shoe along with some green ivy
I have tied the whole lot with ribbon and this would make a lovely addition to someone dressing table.
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx

ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Christina! I love lilies but haven't planted any in my new garden yet. Seeing how to put these on a stem will mean I can at least have some indoors and no mess or bother either. Thanks for showing us it's not as difficult as it looks. x

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Christina. Hugs. Jan. xx
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Beautiful card Christina. Those lilies are so perfect. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge. Hugs Rita xx
ReplyDeleteDo you use any particular sort of paper for your flowers, Christina, or do you use vellum? I am going away for a week and have all the important stuff packed for a craft making trip and wondered about the best paper, or does ordinary craft paper do the trick? I have, previously used card stock and paper collection paper but had heard vellum was very good too? Hope you can help me out please?
ReplyDeleteOh what a fabulous card, love the idea of the flower as a decoration in a vase for a special someone. Gorgeous. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteStunning card, have just watched the tutorial, you are an excellent teacher and just love all you work. You have been my inspiration for many years long may you reign xx
