Roses & Butterflies Shabby Chic Card by Kerrie Gurney

Hi everyone Kerrie here back for Couture Creations and for my post today I created this very simple shabby chic look card for a very special friend's birthday, but this card can be used for any occasion.
I have used the gorgeous Couture Creations Vintage Rose Garden 6x6 Paper Pad along with a couple of the newest release Everyday Essentials and Frames n Frills dies. These collections are gorgeous and it will be hard for you to not want them all.
Ok onto my tutorial
I started off by die cutting 2 x Cycad Fern from the Everyday Essentials Collection in green paper with a small text
I also die cut from the Frames n Frills collection, Anastasia Set. 1 x outside doily and 2 x border doily in a green patterned paper and then 1 x inside plain circle from a floral pattern
I then cut down the background patterned paper to 14.5cm x 14.5cm and distressed the edges of it and also the floral circle
I then adhered the border doily strips onto a piece of ruffled trim using the 3mm double sided adhesive tape. I have placed the tape onto the back too for adhering to card base
I then adhered the border doily strips onto a piece of ruffled trim using the 3mm double sided adhesive tape. I have placed the tape onto the back too for adhering to card base
I then layered it all onto the base making sure to adhere the trim to the background patterned paper before it goes onto the base card.
I pinched the leaves to give them some life and I also slightly scrunched the doily base to give it some character so as not to be flat.
I added some muslin and premade flowers, but you could create your own flowers from some matching Vintage Rose Garden patterned papers.
