Spring Card

A new style of card I saw demonstrated on the Nifty Noodles Crafting Facebook page this week called a 'Double Front Card'. I was sorting out my box of stamped images this week, some coloured and some ready to be coloured.  I came across this one I coloured ages ago but never used.  I thought the colours would be suitable for a spring card, so I dug out some old orange and yellow papers.
The image is an old wood mounted Francoise Read stamp, 'Glasgow Rose Garden', which I've had for well over ten years.  I coloured the flowers with Promarkers.  The sentiment is a Bugaboo digi stamp.  The patterned papers are from a very old Papermania paper stack.

On the inside front, I added a Poppystamps 'Petal Ribbon' white die cut and added yellow punched circles in the centre of each flower.  I used the Petal Ribbon for the first time, so I'll be sharing my card in the NBUS Challenge.

On the inside panel I attached a Poppystamps 'Leafy Branch Oval', backed with an oval of the orange paper.  I added three tiny punched flowers.


I am joining in the following challenges:

  7. Another brilliant shaped card Liz and I love the citrus toned papers which are perfect for a spring card, and I love the Macintosh-esque prettily coloured flowers, and then the two added die cuts with punched flowers look beautiful within the card. x

  8. The Double Front Card design is so innovative and unique, and the citrus-toned color palette brings a wonderfully fresh and sunny feel to the spring theme. The combination of the vintage Glasgow Rose stamp and the intricate die cuts creates such an elegant and harmonious composition.
