Calla Lillies


This is a card for my friend Linda, it's for her daughter Samantha who loves Calla lillies, when normally asked to do a flower card I buy the flowers, but this time I have used a Digi stamp from digital doodles and I love how it turned out. I have coloured the image with pro markers then glazed the stems of the flowers, 2d'd a couple of the lillies for dimension, then i have used citrus burst flower soft for the stamen inside the flower, then chalked around the edge. The main DP is from create and craft, the flower DP is from a set at pink petticoat and I have used my martha stewart doily punch on this. The 3rd DP is just plain cream which I have run through my big shot and embossed, then added small pink pearls to the centres of the flowers. I have cut the image with a nellie snellen frame and then used a TLC daughter sentiment and die cut this with the same frame, punch a small hole and connected them together with a pink flower brad, then stuck the bottom section to the cream DP, and the top section moves to the side to reveal the sentiment. Finally added some pink buttons attached some white raffia and the charms and added some pink flower buttons at the bottom, the other sentiments are computer generated.

  2. Hi Gaynor - this is such a beautiful personalised card and I love all the detail you've added - the central flower panel which opens up to reveal a message, is fabulous. (I too am a Glamour Dust and glitter addict by the way)!!!
