Mettetevi comodi, post lungo e pieno di foto... con sorpresa finale ;)
Prima di mostrarvi i dettagli della card, vi faccio vedere come ho ottenuto la carta con i fiori secchi, nel caso vogliate provare
N.B.: io ho usato il vinavil ma ho scoperto che non è adatto. Credo che con il gel medium possa risultare migliore.
Ho preso carta assorbente da cucina, pagine di un vecchio libro, carta velina preventivamente stropicciata, colla, acqua e naturalmente fiori essiccati (fresie)
Ho preparato parecchi fogli, più o meno colorati.
Il cabochon con la farfalla l'avevo già incollato su un fiore bianco di carta. Non mi piaceva, così l'ho messo sopra al piccolo cerchio beige di finta pelle che vedete in alto e ho aggiunto del Nuvo Drops per decorarlo.
La piccola tag color crema è un vecchio esperimento con un punch per angoli. I fiori rosa chiaro sono fatti con una fustella e carta da fotocopie colorata. Il fiore in stoffa e velo l'ho recuperato da una bomboniera.
Nuvo Drops sulle foglie e Nuvo Drops glitterato sui rametti.
Un centrino a forma di cuore spunta in alto (Nuvo Drops glitterato anche su questo e sulla cornice). Alcune margherite fatte da me e rose di carta comprate dai cinesi e colorate con i DI + acqua. Una delle mie girandole di juta handmade; il bastoncino della girandola è una striscia sottilissima di cartoncino (scarto della taglierina!), rosa su un lato e verde sull'altro, arrotolata su sé stessa.
Ho aggiunto due cuori, tagliati con la Big Shot da avanzi di juta.
L'interno della card è una sorpresa... ;D Apriamola....
Questo bellissimo meccanismo pop-up con vaso annesso è fatto con la fustella Flower Pot Pop-Up Die Set by Karen Burningston. Meravigliosa fustella! :D
Alcuni fiori e foglie sono tagliati con le piccole fustelle che fanno parte del set, altri fiori li ho tagliati con punch e fustelle di altri brand.
Con questo progetto vorrei partecipare ai seguenti challenge:Alcuni fiori e foglie sono tagliati con le piccole fustelle che fanno parte del set, altri fiori li ho tagliati con punch e fustelle di altri brand.
La carta patterned del vaso è First Edition; nel centro dei fiori ho messo del Nuvo Drops glitterato. Le farfalle sono tagliate doppie con una fustella Sizzix da avanzi di carta vellum colorata; all'interno delle due parti ho incollato un filo metallico rigido per tenerle sospese.
Sulla base della card ho incollato una forma tagliata con la fustella più piccola del set GoKreate Frame Frilly#10; sugli angoli ho aggiunto dei riccioli di carta dello stesso colore (sono leftovers della fustella per bordi Sizzix Vintage Lace Edging)

Well I certainly wasn't expecting that spectacular pop up inside. This must have taken you absolutely ages to make. The front of the card is most certainly Shabby Chic in my book. Love your handmade pressed flower paper. The whole project is fabulous and such a lot of embellishments of odds and ends used up. I love it. Thankyou for coming and spinning the butterfly wheel this week. Hugs Mrs A.
RispondiEliminaWhat a wonderful creation. I think you sure had fun making it. Thank you for sharing it with us and the detail in your tutorial. I may just have a try to make some paper following you instructions Thank you and thank you for sharing it with us at Crafting with Dragonflies Wynn DT
RispondiEliminaCiao Alice,
RispondiEliminaTutto quello che dico è WOW, un'opera d'arte assoluta, tanta attenzione ai dettagli e deve averti impiegato tanto tempo a fare, ma bontà ogni istante di tempo ben speso perché è bello.
Sono così felice di vederti a Stamping Sensations e Penny Black and More challenge e Allsorts in quanto è un pezzo molto femminile, grazie mille per esserti unito a te.

RispondiEliminaMajo - DT ♥
Your handmade flower paper is just amazing. This card is a real work of art - so many beautiful layers and details. We are so pleased you chose to display your art at 613 Avenue Create.

RispondiEliminaFabulous project, great background, lovely idea.
RispondiEliminaThank you for sharing at Allsorts Challenge.
Happy Women's Day;-))m
You are one of the most detailed crafters I've ever seen! I can't find the words to adequately describe all the beautiful details you've put into this project, but I can try to express how utterly fantastic everything looks!! The card front you made is incredible and must have taken you SO much time to put together, but what a fantastic outcome! I love the burlap pinwheel, and 2 tiny hearts and all of the gorgeous layers on the outside of this beautiful card! The pop-up box inside is just packed with gorgeous things from the garden that will delight the recipient who is fortunate enough to receive it! I'm truly speechless over your creativity!!!
RispondiEliminaWOW Alice this is just amazing! Lots of wonderful detail and gorgeous colours. The pop up box inside if fabulous!
RispondiEliminaHugs

Wow, Wow, Wow! Alice, this is amazing! Even though you said surprise, I was not expecting to see the fabulous pop-up when you opened the card! I was enjoying all the photos and reading how you made your own flower paper - it is fabulous! I love the front of your card and the bird is a beautiful focal point! I love all the layers, flowers, leaves, key label, butterfly, and even a little pinwheel! So much texture too! Beautiful! And then the inside is a big WOW! Those flowers, leaves, and butterflies are so pretty! Whoever receives this card will be blessed indeed! You put a lot of love into making it! So impressive, my friend! Bravo! I love it!
RispondiEliminaYes, I'm still here admiring this! LOVE!!!!!
RispondiEliminaOh my goodness. That paper is wonderful, and I certainly enjoyed the pictures showing how you made it. Long ago I tried making paper but using torn bits of envelopes and lint (collected from the clothes dryer) a screen frame, pressing the water out, letting it dry. Mine did not look anything so pretty as what you did. Your idea with the book page, adding in the dried flowers, created such a lovely colorful look to the texture. How beautiful it looked in this magnificent creation too. Of course I loved all the layers, bits & details, but my favorite - aside from the handmade paper! - was that gorgeous bird! Then to tuck in the pop-up, oh my goodness! You made super use of your snow time it seems! TFS & Hugs
RispondiEliminaWow, wow , WOW!!! This is a stunningly beautiful amazing card!! I didn't realise the paper was also handmade Alice, you're so clever. The outside is just absolutely gorgeous and just my favourite style of card with its wonderful textures and embellishments but the inside is such a fantastic surprise of loveliness. The abundance of flowers and the flying butterfly are truly magical.
RispondiEliminaThank you so very much for sending it to me. It has made me happy when I've been having such a rough time. You are a true friend! I will always treasure this.

Wow, so many lovely layers here and it was very kind of you to take the time to make a photo tutorial of how you made your card. The bird looks very pretty sat amongst the flowers. Thank you for sharing this with us at Stamping Sensations and good luck. Sandra x

RispondiEliminaThis is a wonderful card. I loved the way you made the background paper and your design is superb!
Holy moly, this is over the top gorgeous my friend!! Wow, I sure do love the shabby chic side of your crafting, what a delicious design! You are so sweet to mention me, I am honoured to be even a small part of your inspiration! Thank you for that, you really made me smile this morning. I am just blown away by all the details inside and outside of this card. The pot of flowers is beyond exquisite. You are truly a creative master Alice, wow wow wow!
RispondiEliminaSo many people have been hit with snow recently, but here in Canada it's been lovely spring weather for the most part. How ironic is that! I haven't had a chance to get out yet and enjoy any of it, but the summer birds are arriving and the smells and sounds of the warmer season are starting to become more noticeable. Looks like it's shaping up to be a season of tons of babies!! sending hugs to you and hoping you have a lovely weekend :)
This is amazing Alice, what a beautiful card
RispondiEliminaHandmade paper too, wow you are clever!
Have a lovely weekend

Cioè non solo la carta fatta a mano (che a me piace tantissimo, perche non ti convince, poi?) pure il vaso meraviglioso pop-up all'interno. Ti sei superata!!
RispondiEliminaWow, Alice. You are an artist! Your card is stunning!!!!!!!!!!!! Baci, amica.
RispondiEliminaOh, you weren’t kidding about it being flower papers, your weren’t only talking about the pattern. You’ve got a lot of patience along with talent. The result looks shabby to me, lots of flowers and bits and bobs well color coordinated. And so much texture! Then I see the pop up detail on the inside! Wow. I’m speechless. And if you knew me you’d know that rarely happens, lol.
RispondiEliminawaving hello and thanks for always commenting.xx💖 [Aussie aNNie's Blog]
