Glitter Flowers Card by Anabelle O'Malley

Creating glittered flowers is quick and easy when you use glitter cardstock. The Best Creations cardstock is perfect to use since you can cut and crumple it and the glitter stays on!

Supplies:


Winter's Wings Snowflakes & Feathers Paper by Webster's Pages
Winter's Wings Season of White Paper by Webster's Pages
Winter's Wings Vellum by Webster's Pages
Cardmaking Clear Acrylic Stamps by Making Memories
Lime Glitter Heavy Weight Cardstock by Best Creation
Antique Linen Distress Ink by Ranger

Instructions:

1. To create the flowers, first punch three circles. I used vellum for the middle circle to add a different color and texture.

2. Crumple the circles, ink them and then layer them together, attaching with a brad. Trim the edges with decorative scissors if you'd like. I add a twine tied button for the center.

3. Then, create the card using more glittered cardstock as a base. Add the striped panel and pink panel. Stitch the edges of the card. Adhere the chipboard stem and then add the flowers. I used glue dots to hold them in place. Finally, stamp the sentiment.
