Red & White Mum's Card

I have made another card for Fat Cats Card Corner using the Marianne Creatables Anja Rectangle die (LR0405).  It is a very pretty die, and when you emboss it as well, it is just gorgeous.  I wanted to keep my card quite simple, and just used two colours, white and red, but I thought I would make some flowers to give it a bit of a lift.  I will show how I make them in the video, so please take a look at the  video at the bottom of this post.


So this card was just matted with red and white mats and then onto a red card base.  The flowers are made with the Cheery Lynn Small Gardenia strip die, a punch for the stamen.  I think it might have been a nelle snellen punch but can't be sure as it doesn't have any name on it.  And the Cheery Lynn branch die for the leaves.  I used the delicate frames and tags set of Creative Expressions Sue Wilson die set and cut and embossed the tag in the set.  I used a sentiment I had cut out on my silhouette cameo some time ago which was the perfect colour.  A white seam binding bow and that finishes it off.
