Tutti Designs - 748 Floral Hoops

Hello! Let's see what you can create with Tutti Designs today!

I decided for this card, that i wanted to create a simple easel card.

Below i took many photos in case anyone would like to create something similar.

Ink up some paper for he die cut.

I used Distress Oxide Squeezed Lemonade and Mowed Lawn

I decided that the die needed a bit more color so i added

Distress Oxide - Mustard seed to the yellow parts.

I wanted to back the die with a white, but it was too plain, so i inked up some scrap paper with

Distress Oxide - Lost Shadow and Pumice Stone.

Then i added some clear embossing powder.

I used the outside die that comes with this set of 3 floral dies to back the die cut.

So next, i wanted to fill in the back with blue ink so there would be a contrast.

I used Distress Oxide - Broken China.

Except for the larger piecees, I left the die pieces in the die

and poked out what i needed as i added them.

Turns out this lovely piece of paper was perfect to back the Floral Heart Frame.

Next, i felt the floral hoop needed a bow and one of the choices from the Fancy Bow set worked great.

I cut it out twice and glued one of them to white scrap paper.

Then i fussy cut it out leaving a bit of a border.

I added the fussy cut bow to the card with double sided foam tape.

I raised up the top piece with foam tape in the center of the bow and curled up the bow.

Now for the inside of the card, i needed to finish it also because it is an easel card.

I cut out another Floral Heart Frame. I needed to cover up the heart, so i cut out a heart that was a bit larger than than the frame heart from white card stock. I then cut 2 more hearts from the scraps from the backing paper from the cover. I pulled out Fairy Hugs Sentiment - Love at Christmas (i have two of these sentiments and cut this one apart to get the words "With Love") and stamped it on the larger green heart at the top.

In order for the front to stand you need to have something that will keep it from sliding closed. I used the green hearts and attached them with double sided foam tape.

You can see the finished card at the top to see how it worked!
