Lupine

Another new Garden Notes die set was used to design this card - Lupine/Bluebonnet.  

This is a 6-inch card.  Cut a piece of white card stock 5 1/2 inch square.  Use Oxide Distress Ink Sprays and lightly spritz Picked Raspberry and Wilted Violet on this square, to create a speckled background.  Dry with heat tool and attach to the front of the card.

Use the Garden Notes Wooden Fruit Crate die set for the container for the flowers.  Die cut two crates and glue together.  Color with markers or inks.  I sponged Distress Oxide Tea Dye and Walnut on the die cut.  Use a piece of Cafe au Lait cardstock and cut a piece to layer behind the crate.  Glue the crate to the background.  Attach to the bottom of the card.

Use the Garden Notes Lupine/Bluebonnet die set and create one purple and one pink Lupine. Use the Flower Tool Kit to shape the flowers and Kids Choice Glue to assemble. Attach the flowers in the crate.  Attach the leaves at the base of the flowers.  

Use the Garden Notes Forsythia die set and create one stem of flowers.  Attach between the Lupine.

Use the Garden Notes Pansy die set and create 6 violets.  Color with markers.  Shape with the Flower Tool Kit.  Add a Yellow Prill in the center of each flower.  

Use the Corners 1 die set and die cut two white, and four Lavender corners.  Glue two lavender corners over a white corner, for dimension, and attach to the top of the card.  Add silver line stickers as shown.
