love the moments card by Anita Enright

Hi Everyone, Anita here.

Welcome to another day and another post on the Couture Creations Blog.

The new Secret Garden Collection is now out soon I thought I would share with you a card that I made using some of the dies from the collection.

To start I selected some flowers from the Couture Creations Flower assortment (and a couple of my own) and spritzed and inked them up, adding a little Glitzin' Glamour to them setting them aside to dry.

From the Secret Garden collection I cut three of the Tall Flourish and enough of the Layered Blooms to make two layered flowers.

Other dies I used were the Circle and Scallop Oval Nesting Dies, Stawberry Leaf and the Keepsake Kandy doily.

For this card I decided to create a 7 1/2" x 4" card base in black, and then selected a subtle piece (I used the middle from the Time sheet) for paper from the Vintage Rose collection. Prior to adhering it to the black card base I stitched around the edges. I then started constructing the card with all other dies cuts. To bling it up a little I used some of the gemstones to border the scalloped oval nesting die. I took some of my white pearls and used my sharpie permanent black marker to change the colour. I added these to the center of the flowers I made using the Layered Bloom die and also to a couple of the leaves.

Finally, select yourself a title from the Pink Words sheet from the Vintage Rose 12x12 Paper Pad and mount it on black card. Add it across the center of the scallop oval.

Below are a couple of close ups of the finished card.
