Easter Greetings

By Christine Robinson

MATERIALS REQUIRED:

Creative Paper: SR097P Light Rainbow.

Centura Pearl Paper Sample Set: CNTSP.

Dark Brown Card.

Peel-Off Stickers: XL604U-01 Letters.

Bel Satin Ribbon: RIB22-01 Pale Yellow.

Flashy Cord: RIB16-01 Gold.

Paper Punches: 15mm Daisy & 5mm Hole

and 15mm Hole.

Embossing Tool and Mat.

Tracing Paper and Pencil.

Craft Knife.

Double Sided Tape and Mini Fixers.

P.V.A. Craft Adhesive.

Card Mount: SF01U-43 Linen White.

TO MAKE THE CARD:

Cover the front of the card with the pale rain-

bow paper using the pale orange to lilac section

to match with the Centura Pearl paper colours

used in the design.

Cut four 35cm lengths of the pale yellow

Bel Satin ribbon and tie together in a knot

close to one end.

Place the ribbon on the front of the card with the

knot at the lower left corner as shown in the photo.

Fan the ribbons out across the card in the positions

shown and stick in place using double sided tape.

Trim the ribbon ends to the card edges and trim the

ends below the knot to about 2cm long.

Cut a strip of brown card to 13mm wide and cut

off a 14cm long piece and an 8cm long piece. Stick

the two pieces together with the top bar at an angle

as shown to make the cross. Wind the flashy cord

around the upright, criss-crossing over the bar as

shown. Use sticky fixers to attach the cross to the

card keeping it close to the top left edge.

Trace the flower and leaf shapes from the diagram.

Transfer one flower shape to orange, magnolia and

pink Centura Pearl paper. I’ve suggested an A4 sam-

ple set of papers as you can do so much more with

all the lovely colours. You can buy the three individual

colours used instead (as large sheets cut to A4).

Transfer the leaf shape to the pea green paper in

the usual way to make three leaves then cut out all

the leaves and flowers.

Turn the flowers face down onto the embossing

mat one at a time and emboss around the edge of

each flower. Emboss one flower with dots, another

with lines and the last one with swirls, I’ve marked

one petal of each pattern onto the diagram for trac-

ing, or you can do them freehand using the photo

to guide you.

Turn the flowers face up and run the tool

around the inside of the embossed line on the

edge of the petal and around the pattern from

this side to give it more definition. Work the

leaves in the same way, embossing around the

edge and along the centre line shown.

Cut or punch out a large and a small circle

in each of the three flower colours. Emboss

the edges of the larger circles in the same way,

then glue them onto the flowers using different

colours for each. Add a tiny sticker dot or waste

piece from inside the alphabet letters to the

centre of each flower.

Position the flowers and leaves on the card as

shown and stick them in place using mini fixers.

Add the lettering to the ribbon using the peel-off

stickers and decorate the background with punched

daisies in the flower colours. Place a tiny sticker dot

to each daisy centre as before.

Stick this image into the card behind the aperture

and glue the card closed in the usual way.

Cut strips of the rainbow paper to 15mm wide and

3cm wide and add them to the card front as shown.

Edge each of the strips with a gold borderline and

make a sticker border around the aperture too. Add

the wording onto the top paper border on the card.

The flowers and leaves are cut out and embossed

in the same way as the main card, but to make them

look a little different, emboss them the other way

around, i.e. from the front and then the back. This

will curve the edges of the pieces towards you, rather

than away from you as before.

The punched daisies have small waste pieces from

the sticker sheet as centres.

VARIATION:

This similar design uses the yellow to blue side

of the pale rainbow paper along with blue and yellow

sheets from the sample set of Centura paper.

The card blank is AP58U-46 Hammer Cream, and

the peel-off stickers are XL536U for the crosses,

XL420U for the wording and XL500U borders.

Apply a cross sticker to a piece of the rainbow

paper placing it so there is a hint of green at the

bottom, going into yellow, with a hint of orange at

the top of the crosses.
