Cherry Blossoms & Hummingbirds

Hi there, Liz here. I absolutely love these Cherry Blossoms flowers from Pretty Pink Posh and couldn’t resist but to make a birthday shaker card to make someone smile.

To get this card started, I decided to create the background first using the Stacked Edges 2 die and use the diamond shape border for the design. Therefore, I die cut several rows using the same color and placed them together onto a piece of card stock. Later, I ran it through the die cut machine for the size I wanted and to press more firmly all together.

 

Next, I moved onto the shaker portion of the card where I used one of my favorites, the Stitched Duo 3 and added this wonderful Berry Bright Mix of sequins which has an array of sizes including 4mm, 6mm, and Clear Droplets. Plus, I love the color combination of pinks, reds, green, and clear.

Moving on, I stamped several flowers and leaves from the Cherry Blossoms set and colored them using my copic markers and reached for the coordinating die to help me cut them out. Next, I colored this gorgeous hummingbird from the Hummingbird Thanks set along with using the coordinating die.

Afterwards, I thought it would be great to add a sentiment so I pulled out the Everyday Greetings since it has a combination of big and small fonts. For this card, I used the smaller font “It’s Your Big Day” and embossed it using white embossing powder.

To finish this card, I added some Clear Droplets in the center from the sequins mix and used some foam mount tape to pop the big flower up and hummingbird. Love how the clear droplets sparkle and adds to the detail.

I hope you enjoyed this post. Join us tomorrow for the start of sneak peeks of our June release!
