The Greetery - Cheerful Spring Tulips!

Hi there my creative and crafty friends! Happy Friday! It's my turn up on The Greetery Blog today to share a project with you! And of course, to share here too! I am always so excited and happy to share with you. Happy April!  Hope you had a nice Easter and are enjoying a lovely Spring so far. Our weather has been psycho! It was almost 80 on Tuesday here and now it's back in the mid 50's! Rain, sun, we've had it all the past week. Spring for sure... For today's card I was inspired by the garden and the blooming flowers! We already have lots of tulips blooming at our house and so I created a tulip card for you in shades of pink and yellow...

 

My finished card is an A2 white card base. I layered yellow polka dot patterned paper and then a crisp white layer for my tulips. I used the gorgeous Botanicuts Tulips dies of course! The sentiment is from the All Occasion stamp set and I heat embossed it in gold for a classy look. Perfect Spring colors - yellow and pink! I made a big bountiful bouquet!

 

Here's a side view of my layers and the dimension in those cool tulips dies....

 

I started this card by die cutting all of the tulips and leaves pieces. I added shading to each piece using Copic Markers before assembling all the flowers. After the flowers were completed, I splattered on some artistic white paint. I arranged the tulips into a big bouquet and affixed everything to the card using foam pop dots. 

 

I stamped and heat embossed the pretty sentiment using gold embossing powder and then die cut it out using the matching dies. I used the Fit To Be Tied die to create a bow for my bouquet from kraft cardstock. Lastly, I added a few golden yellow gems to finish off my card.

This card would be great for any occasion. I do love a nice "thinking of you" card, don't you? You could change the colors of the tulips to match your favorite colors, too. Would be super pretty in bright red don't you think?!

That's it for my project for today! I hope you have a fantastic and creative day! I look forward to sharing with you again soon. In the meantime, happy crafting! Have a great weekend! We are going to see the Goo Goo Dolls in concert tomorrow night and I am so excited!  XOXO

I've seen this card several times on social media today and had to make a stop for the deets. It's a beauty and yes, pink and yellow, are fabulous partners.
