Valentine Tulips

Woo Hoo!  It’s the weekend!!!  This has been a very long work week and I am so glad the weekend is here.  Whew!  I’m sure you can all relate.  I have a floral project to share with you today made with some new toys I just received in the mail.

I cut a piece of white cardstock 5” x 3.25” and used my new Martha Stewart Deco Fan Punch Around The Page set to create the frame. The  center was cut with a Nestabilities oval die. I attached the frame to the card base using mounting tape.

The tulips were made using Memory Box Dancing Tulips die set. I cut several sets of the tulips in pink, distressed then with a stylus and mat and then sponged some of them with pink and some with cranberry red. I cut several full sets of tulips in green, trimmed off a little of the flower head so it wouldn’t show and attached the pink and red flower heads over the green stem.

I distressed the foliage and sponged on a little dab of green ink just to add a little life to the leaves. I glued the flowers down at the bottom of the stems and then attached the foliage over top of the stems. I finished the bouquet with a red multi loop bow.

I hope you have a wonderful and restful weekend.  I hope to spend some fun time stamping and playing with some of my newest toys.

  3. This is another stunning work of art! You make it look & sound so easy to recreate, however, I do know that it does take a LOT of talent and patience. Thanks for sharing this new project with us — it just makes me smile.
    P.S. Still waiting for feedback from Poppy; I’m losing hope 🙁

  5. Beautiful,beautiful card. You amaze me
    the way you take something cut from a
    die that we usually use flat and you make
    it come to life.
    Your work of art is such an inspiration to
    so many. I have lost count of the items I
    have ordered after seeing how you used them.
    Thank you so much for sharing your lovely
    work.
