Lovebirds Lace Corner Birthday


Hi everyone,

It's my turn to post a tutorial today for the Die Cut Design Team over on the Elizabeth Craft Designs blog. Today I decided to play with some of the new ModaScrap products, the Lace Corner and the  Color of Puppies Girl Papers, I just love this new range of papers.

Here is how I created my card:


Step 1 - 
Cut a piece of pink cardstock that measures 11 inches x 5 1/2 inches. Score along the 11 inch side at 5 1/2 inches to create a top folding card.
  • Using the largest square from the Stitched Squares die set die cut a square from brown cardstock.
  • Using the largest square from the Fitted Squares die set die cut a square from patterned paper.
  • Die cut the ModaScrap Lace Corner die from dark pink cardstock. Fold along score lines and attach to the lower right hand corner of the card.
  • Adhere the layers to the pink card base.

Step 2 -
Die cut the Lovebirds using White Soft Finish Cardstock. Color the image using Copic markers.
  • Use the second smallest oval from the Stitched Ovals die set to die cut an oval from White Soft Finish Cardstock.
  • Use the third smallest oval from the Dotted Scallop Ovals die set to die cut an oval from Brown Cardstock.
  • Layer the lovebirds to the oval layers using foam tape.
  • Adhere a black prill to the lovebirds eyes.
  • Adhere to the left side of the card using photo below as a guide.




Step 3 - 
Use the middle circle from the Entwined Circles die set, die cut two circles from brown cardstock.
  • Cut the circles in half and arrange around the oval. One half circle on the left side and three half circles on the right side of the oval. (Trim circles as necessary so that they are at varying sizes.)
  • Add Pink/Silver Glitter Dots Peel Off Stickers to the circles.
Step 4 - 
Using the "Happy Birthday" sentiment from the General Sentiments Clear Stamp set, stamp onto a piece of brown cardstock using VersaMark ink, cover with white embossing powder. Emboss using heat gun.
  • Die cut sentiment using the smallest fishtail banner from the Stitched Fishtail Banners die set.

Step 5 - The Inside of the Card:

  • Using the largest square from the Stitched Squares die set die cut a square from brown cardstock.
  • Using the largest square from the Fitted Squares die set die cut a square from White Soft Finish Cardstock.
  • Die cut the ModaScrap Lace Corner die from dark pink cardstock. Fold along score lines and attach to the lower right hand corner of the card.
  • Adhere the layers to the inside of the card.
Step 6 -
Die cut the A Way with Words - Happy Birthday 2 sentiment using brown cardstock. Adhere to the upper part of the card using photo above as a guide.

Step 7 -
Die cut the Lovebirds using White Soft Finish Cardstock. Trim off the top lovebird/branches and color using Copic markers.
  • Adhere the lovebird to card using photo above as a guide.
  • Adhere a black prill to the lovebirds eye.

So pretty - and the inside is as nice as the outside! Prills for the bird eyes is such a great idea.
