Two-Tone Flora Cut Out

Two Tone Flora Cut Front

At one of my recent classes, we made this pretty Two-Tone Flora Cut Out card. Class members all had the same supplies, but they were given options. They had different sentiments to choose from, they could make their card horizontal or vertical, and they could choose whether or not to emboss the back white layer.

Every one of their cards turned out beautifully!

How We Made It

Before class, I cut a piece of scrap cardstock the same size as their Basic White panel with the die from Something Fancy centered. They could then lay this template over their white panel so see where to stamp their Sentiment.

Next, we moved the template and added the large flower (two-step with Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape) and two sets of leaves (Garden Green) to the white panel. We also stamped the smaller flower and another set of leaves onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock and cut them out with the coordinating dies. The flower centers were colored with the Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Write Marker.

We cut our stamped white panel with the Something Fancy Die and chose whether or not to emboss the outer piece of the white panel.

The white panel was then adhered to a Gorgeous Grape card base and the Die Cut was adhered back in its original place with Dimensionals which allowed the purple to peek around the edges.

Finally, we added the die cut flower and leaves and Rhinestone Basic Jewels colored with the Dark Highland Heather Blend.
