DOCRAFTS CREATIVITY MAGAZINE ISSUE 33 MAY/JUN 2012

This issue we feature a delightful collection from Lucy Cromwell by Papermania, off ering all the cups of tea, cake and bunting you will need to set the scene. And just to prove how versatile this range is, you can also find it in our ‘Wedding Special’ feature and used to make a Father’s Day card in our ‘make a Father’s Day card’ challenge! Our ‘Wedding Special’ feature also includes jewellery for the bride and a charming idea to hold onto those precious memories of the big day!

Step by Step

1

Make a 6x5” tent fold card blank from cream Core’dinations (this will fit in a 7x5 envelope) and round the corners. Sand the edges gently to distress them.

2

Trim Confetti paper slightly smaller. Round the bottom corners and glue centrally.

3

Cover the top 3.5cm of the card with filigree paper and carefully glue in place.

4

Cut a border from brown Core’dinations using the Margaret Border Die. Sand lightly and trim to the width of the card. Glue below the filigree paper section.

5

Apply ribbon around the join and secure on the reverse.

6

Die cut the leaf shape using beige cardstock. Glue centrally leading down from the border.

7

Tie a large bow using the lace ribbon and glue in place using a glue gun or silicone glue.

8

Die cut the lace die from vellum.

9

Punch a 2” scalloped circle from the patterned paper and snip about half way into the flower between every other scallop. Shape in your fingers.

10

Adhere a white Papermania petal flower on top of the scallop circle flower and the lace die-cut using a pearl brad. Secure on top of the bow using a glue gun or silicone glue.

11

Die cut letters to spell out your title using the Xcut die and sand lightly before applying to the bottom left corner of the card.

12

Add some adhesive stone to the bottom corners and centres of some of the filigree flowers to finish.
