This gorgeous card is just perfect for a birthday, for Mother's day, get well soon, thinking of you and so many more occasions! It's simply made using some lovely flowers made with pink Petal Magic and some green wires. For this card you will need:-
Pink Petal Magic
Paper-covered wires, green
Beading wire
White vellum
Fancy nesting rectangles die set
Satin ribbon bows bumper pack
Downloadable Paper Pad - Perfect Pinks
White A6 card blank
Double-sided tape
Dovecraft Ultimate Glue
To make the Petal Magic flowers, cut 5 lengths of your green paper-covered wire, each to 6-8cm (you can trim them afterwards if necessary). Dip or apply glue to around 2cm of the end of each wire, then sprinkle Petal Magic onto it, turning as you go to get it all around. I've found it's best not to try and roll or dip the wires into the Petal Magic as the glue comes off - stick to sprinkling it. Poke the wires into plasticine or Blu-tac to dry. If your flowers need more of a coating, wait for them to dry before adding more glue and Petal Magic afterwards.
Once dry, arrange 5 flowers into a bunch and when you're happy with the arrangement, wind beading wire around the stems to keep them together. Wrap the flowers in a cut-down corner of white vellum and use double-sided tape to seal the wrap.
Cut the background pieces for the card using your die-cutting machine, our fancy nesting rectangle dies (8.5 & 5.5cm wide dies) and 2 of the papers from our Perfect Pinks paper pad, printed onto good quality white paper. Stick these to the card with double-sided tape.
Finally, add the Petal Magic flower bunch with double-sided tape and finish it with a pink ribbon bow, stuck with Ultimate glue.
