Hello! The Altenew 3D Floral class just started yesterday and I’m already loving it! This is my very first time using any 3D flower dies and I’ve learned lots so far.
For my first card with the Peony Dreams 3D flower die, I found some random cardstock lying around by my paper cutter. Please tell me I’m not the only one to save all the little pieces of leftover cardstock? Anyway, I found three purples in different shades to cut out the flower; and two shades of green for the leaves.
I love that with this die, you can create smaller flowers OR layer them up with the larger dies to create a much larger flower! For this card, I just used the smaller flowers. But I know there’s a lot more I can do with this die set.
You might be able to see the texture on that flower…for the base I used a textured cardstock and I love the extra that it adds!
I ink blended a simple background using Distress Ink, and added some gems to finish off the card.
Here’s the supplies I used, affiliate links used when possible (at no extra cost to you!)
I hope you enjoyed this card today! I’ll tell you…these dies are a lot of fun.
Absolutely stunning Kari! Love the subtle accent of the blended background with those bold beautiful flowers (and of course I don’t keep scraps of paper… no, I am lying, I do lol).
Oh thank you, Therese! I have a good teacher 😉 Also, sometimes I feel like the scraps of paper are taking over my craft studio. Lol. I’m loving the class!!
Gorgeous card, Kari! Great job!!
Thank you so much, Melissa!
