Spring Cards in Gift Box by Angie


Hello SRM friends! Angie here with you again today to share some spring cards and a cute box to gift them in!!



I made all three cards using stamps from the Just Believe stamp set. For the blue card in the middle, I stamped the flowers and leaves on vellum. Then I used watercolor markers and water to give them the watercolor look. Then I just fussy cut them out. I placed the flowers and stems vertically down the card and used foam under the smaller flowers to add some dimension. 


I made the blue background by using distress oxides and water to give it the bleached look. I added some gold and pink ink mist splatters as well. 


The word 'spring' is from the Seasonal Plans stamp set.


For the front of this pink and white card, I added this fun doodle stamp from the Stamped Stitches set. I love how it adds so much to the card will such little effort!! I stamped and fussy cut the flower and stems and gave the card a fun edge by using a punch to make the scalloped border. 


The green card uses lots of fun SRM products such as the small lace doiliesbright blank labels by the dozen and the Easter Express Yourself stickers. 



For the gift box, I used the A2 Clear Card Box. I punched two holes in the top and simply threaded the twine through the holes and made a bow. SRM has lots of twine to choose from. The flower borders on the box are from the Thank You Stickers by the Dozen set and the green label in the middle is another Labels by the Dozen sticker. I added another fussy cut flower, stem and a bird to finish off the box. 

Thank you for visiting the blog today. I hope my project gives you some inspiration to create your own!!
