This month our theme is August to December Mini Catalogue – Anything but Christmas!
So let me introduce you to the Blackberry Beauty Suite
Such a lovely variety of images and beautiful sentiments. With being a pinks and purples sort of a girl, then this was always going to be a favourite, but once I received my order I could see it was just so much more
Check out those beautiful images and the pretty font…… I just love them and even better there is a coordinating set of dies which can be purchased as a bundle for a 10% saving.
The Designer Series Paper is out of this world gorgeous. with such pretty patterns and luxurious gold foiling details.
The suite Ephemera pack is a huge time saving game changer. Floral elements, frames and labels with beautiful coordinating gold foiling as you will see below.
Blackberry Beauty Twisted Easel Card
I used one of the pieces of amazing Designer Series paper as the inspiration for my card. The beautiful owls with gold details is just so pretty. I had to force myself to cut into it! Do you ever have that moment?
By creating a Twisted Easel Card I didn’t need to worry as there was plenty of room to show off that adorable paper. Check out those gold embossed leaves that just glimmer and glitter. They are made from one die & you can see how I made this card on my Facebook Live HERE
How To Make A Blackberry Beauty Twisted Easel Card
- Take your base card and score from the top right of the card front to the bottom left hand side of the front.
- Fold the diagonal score line into a mountain fold and burnish
- Add layers 1 & 2 with glue
- Snip the Layer 3 Gold Shimmer vellum leaves apart and arrange on the card with two of the floral elements & the owl from the ephemera pack
- Add some Gold Simply Elegant Trim and Polished Pink Open Weave Ribbon ( Colour some of the ribbon with a Blackberry Bliss Blend) with a glue dot
- Heat emboss the sentiment on Gold on Cinnamon Cider, trim down and add to the card with mini Dimensionals.
- Finish with some Gilded Gems
- For the inside Add the internal layers 1 & 2
- Take internal layer 3 and cut in half with a trimmer from top right to bottom left
- Add to the card with glue
- Heat emboss the sentiment in gold on another scrap of Cinnamon Cider
- Mount onto a scrap of Polishes Pink and Rich Razzleberry card and add to the edge of the DSP with Dimensionals to create the lip for the card to stand up
- Finish with some Gold Vellum Leaves and Gilded Gems
- Use that spare trangle of DSP to decorate the back of the card (Nothing is wasted here)
- Don’t forget to decorate the Envelope!
