Hey there, Zsoka here to share three new cards I've made for the Paige Evans + Silhouette Design Team!
I pulled out some of my favorite papers from the gorgeous Pick-Me-Up collection - I just love the peach and berry tones! I started with the peach color card (the peach paper is from the 6x6 Paper Pad). I cropped the Bend Up Flower Petals cut file so I only had a semi-circle left and sized it down to fit into a 4 x 5.25" rectangle. Then I sent it to my Silhouette Cameo. I cut a 4.25 x 5.5" piece from the white-gold patterned paper which you can also find in the 6x6 Paper Pad. I adhered the gold foil paper onto my A2 size top folding card base then I added the cut file panel on top. I machine stitched around the edges.
I wasn't sure how to decorate this card because the cuts are so tiny! In the end I kept it very simple so that the cut file could shine. I just added a few gold Chipboard Sticker pieces, some gold tangled thread, and a heart button from the Haberdashery Multi-Pack. It sounds simple, and when you want to re-create it, it doesn't take long at all, but I'll tell you I didn't finish this card in one sitting because I had no idea how to finish it, ha! I love how it turned out though!
For my next card, I cut a lot of the Daisy Flower Borders from white cardstock. I sized them down to look good on a card. Originally I wanted to create a white on white background that looked like lace, but then ended up using patterned paper anyway. I can't deny my nature it seems :)
Again, I cut a 4.25 x 5.5" piece of purple floral paper from the 6x6 Paper Pad then made a diagonal cut. I adhered this onto my top folding card base. I layered some of the daisy borders on the top white part and stitched them down using my sewing machine. To finish off my card, I added some gold tangled thread, a sentiment from the Ephemera Die Cuts (I popped this up for some dimension), and a die cut butterfly.
Now for my third card. I had a lot of the daisy borders left and I was not going to throw them away, so I created a third card! For this, I used the pink ombre striped paper, also from the 6x6 Paper Pad. I cut out one of the darker pink stripes because I only needed 5 stripes and I wanted to keep both the darkest and the lightest colors. I reassembled the papers on my A2 size top folding card base. By the way, the five strips are almost exactly this size, I only had to cheat a little bit and that is hidden under one of the flower borders!
I added a die cut frame using foam adhesive, as well as a couple of other pieces from the Ephemera Die Cuts. I fussy cut 3 butterfly-moths (haha!) and attached these to the frame as well. I tucked some gold tangled thread under my die cuts and added a few pink sequins from the Haberdashery Multi-Pack.
I hope you like these cards and are inspired to create your own! Thanks for stopping by today and have a wonderful day!
