Faux Floral Pieced Card

Hello Crafty Friends! Today I am presenting this bright faux paper pieced card for CutCardStock. I had way too much fun playing with this one!

Create the Base Layer

Start by dry embossing the Zero Waste Flower die from Altenew by layering the embossing pad, 100 lb. White Cougar Cardstock and the die between the plates and run through your die cutting machine. Always follow the manufacturer's sandwich instructions. This technique provided raised areas on which you can add color without cutting all the way through the panel.

Use alcohol markers to color all the raised images. There is no need to be careful as We will die cut a cover later in the process.

Check out the resulting hot mess! Do not worry, it will end up a beautiful card.

Create the Cover Piece

Select a piece of coordinating colored cardstock. In this case, I used Lessebo Hunter Green Cardstock. I love the contrast created. Die cut a single A2 panel to finish the card base. Glue the colored cardstock piece to the embossed panel, matching up the images.

Create the Sentiment

A shadow die is perfect for this technique! Cut the shadow using a very heavy Vellum. Die cut the smaller sentiment using Lessebo Bubble Gum Cardstock. Center the smaller sentiment and glue to the Vellum Shadow and glue together. Add to the front of your faux pieced panel.
