Yesterday I shared with you my fall project!
Thanks a lot to all of you who came and visited me over there
and thanks to Petaloo for having me this week
here are the complete step by step of
The Double Center Step Fall card...
pin it:
follow instructions on how to make the base of the shape for the double center step card
here are some of the supplies used:
assortment of the "Petaloo" Flowers...
For the base of the card, I used "Coredinations" papers..
these papers have the particularity that when sanded they reveal a second color underneath...
in my case I first embossed the panels with a fall embossing folder, then sanded the paper and here is the result, a two tone background !
NEW: I discovered this NEW little clever tool that "Coredinations" papers carries...
It is called the "Dust Buddy", and what it is, it's a somewhat "damped"/ "sticky" dust cleaner...
It really picks up all the dust left from the sanding...
I was quite happy with it...
So if you do not know it I advise you to check it out ...it comes in handy, when you work with fine particles at your desk, such as glitter, powders or sand..
I really liked it!
no more flying/floating particles... finally!
As for "Petaloo's" flowers, I am in love!
They are incredible to work with, they add instant WOW to any project!
These tone on tone cream tea stained flowers are made in 100% recycled cotton, natural fibers and the flowers that come in natural color are paintable !..They are so soft to the touch and great to alter them..but I left mine in their original color!
As for the details on the flowers, see the pistils!
each flower comes with different ones...all is in the details, right?
For this particular white flower on the corner...
I used some natural burlap trim cord underneath..
I punched 2 circles, make them as stickers with the "Xyron" machine
and looped the natural cord shaping it in a flower
then placed it underneath the white flower
Some natural burlap was placed underneath the flowers and added a butterfly, die from Memory Box!
This card can be given at any occasion during fall, for thanksgiving or just to say thanks to a special someone
At the bottom I added the word "Thankful", die cut in gold mirror paper.
NEW: I discovered as well that by I inserting the die cut in the "Xyron" sticker machine to add adhesive to the back of the word, it is much easier than what I was doing before...
Until now I have being using glue to adhere these die cuts but I found out that with intricate and small words like this one, it is much easier to use this sticker machine, no more glue in my fingers or spilling around and specially with gold mirror paper that shows anything...
so from now on I will be using this little machine to adhere my die cut words...
Just insert the die cut onto the opening of the machine, pull paper, burnish it really well, peel and stick it to the project!
Added some die cut birds in green paper to join the butterflies!
and here it is a side view of the double center step fall card!
I hope you liked this project...
I loved working with "Petaloo's" flowers and trims!
Thanks for the visit
and remember tomorrow
I will be at Petaloo's blog again
sharing a Halloween project,
see you then!
