Even though I am happy that Autumn is finally here, I couldn’t resist making this card with the beautiful Black-Eyed Susan file from SVGs by Bee. It’s actually a border but I thought it would look cute as a shaped card.
It was actually a pretty simple card. I just bought the flower file to the mat in Make the Cut and did a shadow with blackout. Then I did a shadow of the shadow to make the base. If you need a visual on how to make shaped cards, here is a video I found to give you the general idea. I don’t think it is with the latest version of the software but it would be the same process.
Here’s a close-up of the pretty flowers with my favorite twine. I have no idea where the stamp came from because a friend of mine picked it up at a yard sale. Thank you Terri! See, I knew I would use it for something. The blue background was embossed on my Sizzix Big Shot
As you can see, while taking pictures, the old man decided to see why I was sitting on the porch. Who knew dogs were so nosy? My Great Dane was also there but cowering in the corner. She is scared if you have anything pointed at her and I had my camera. Done deal, she was keeping away from me. At least she didn’t get into the pictures too!
Supplies:
Kraft cardstock (base)
Recollections (flowers, blue background, tag & eyelets)
Trendy Twine in Blue Berry
Hope you enjoyed and happy crafting!
