Camellia & Lavender Floating Double Panels



Hello my crafty friends!

Today I have another card for you that has been created using Spellbinders/Susan's Garden newest release Victorian Garden Collection.  My card is a Floating Double Panel Card (Sam Calcott) and adorned with Camellia and Lavender.

My card is a 6" X 6" (Sam Calcott die in 5" X 7") so here are the dimensions I used.
Card base 6" X 6" gold mirror card cut 5-3/4" X 5-3/4" adhered to card front using Clear Double Sided Adhesive.  Pattern paper (P13 Time to Relax -06) cut 5-1/2" X 5-1/2" adhered to card front using Clear Double Sided Adhesive.

Panels 1 cut from white cardstock 3-1/2" X 5-1/2" mirror card cut 3-1/4" X 5-1/4" then embossed using Spellbinders E3D-030 Leafy embossing folder then attached to white panel using Clear Double Sided Adhesive.  Second panel should be 1-3/4" X 5-1/4" (I cut on 5" it works but should have been just 1/4" longer).  Pattern paper should be cut 1-1/2" X 5" then adhered to white panel using Clear Double Sided Adhesive.  The link to card instruction can be found here.

Using Spellbinders S5-525 Essential Diamonds cut gold mirror card using the die that measures 4-1/2" from top to bottom points and using next size down cut a diamond from white cardstock. adhere together using Clear Double Sided Adhesive.  Adhere to smaller panel.

I cut 1 Camellia, 2 extra buds and leaves from Susan's Garden Specialty Paper using S4-1233 die set and the Lavender S6-207 from Victorian Garden and Winter Bough S4-1114 from Holiday release cut twice from brown cardstock.  

Camellia was colored using OLO Y1.1 & Y2.0 leaves were colored using YG 8.5 & YG 8.7.  
Susan's YouTube Videos can be found here Camellia here and Lavender here  Winter Bough here

Once card is completely assembled add flowers to diamond using Kids Choice Glue.

Hope this has inspired you and you will create your own card.

Good Morning Everyone!  Sorry it has been so long since I have posted but I have been busy getting ready to go to Creative Keepsake Convention and then going to convention. I had a great time taking classes, shopping, eating and enjoying great friends. My post today is using one of Susan's Garden new dies and one of Karen Burniston's pop up dies.  It was hard to get a good clear picture because of the shine from the glitter. Card base is an A2 size card (4-1/4 X 5-1/2) 1.  Panel is made by using Karen Burniston's accordion rectangle die.  Attach a piece of sticker paper  4-1/2 X 5-3/4 to a pc of white cardstock the same size using clear double sided adhesive. Cut 1 frame from this.  Cut the rectangle and tabs from center of frame and the long tab on the left edge of the frame. Run this frame through Sizzix machine using Hearts Entwined embossing folder (or other embossing folder of your choice)  Peel the paper from the front of the frame ( protective p...

Today my card is one that a friend has requested for her mother.  I have chosen several spring flowers from several Spellbinders Susan's Garden releases to create my card.  For my card I have used S4-1085 Lily of the Valley from Spring flora, S4-1175 Lilac from Garden Favorites, S2-340 Forget Me Not from Garden Gate and S5-470 Vase, Daffodil & Narcissus from Summer Flora.   The card base is one I have done before using other shapes for window Sam Calcott has a YouTube video for it (Acetate Hexagon Card) you can find it here .  I chose to do circle instead of hexagon and cut my cardstock 7" square and circles were 4-3/4" and 3-3/4".  I created a box for the card using  Donna Griffith's How to make your own custom sized boxes YouTube video found here  it is a great video.  I chose to add a framed win...
