Hey There Flower for Leonie

Hello lovely peeps


Just popping in with a card that I made with Leonie Pujol's Flower Bursts and Bark Texture dies

First I covered a 6x6 card with one of the papers from Sara Davies' Shabby Chic collection - printed from the CD that came with the Crafters Inspiration magazine issue 14.

Next I dabbed some Twisted Citron Distress Ink onto my craft mat and spritzed with water before dragging some Inkylicious paper through it. I then cut this out with the Bark Texture die and then snipped into it with scissors to make stems, leaves and grass.


To make the orange paper I used the same technique as above but used a few drops of the ink from Leonie's Amber Glitter Pen. I cut one of the flowers from Floral Bursts from this and added a face using shapes cut with the Suffixes die in Leonie's Typography range.


For the sentiment I stamped the 'Hey there' from the Hey There Dreamer stamp set onto a scrap piece of the background card in Black Memento ink. The 'flower' letters were cut from white card using the Typography dies and attached with Cosmic Shimmer glue.


I used the same glue to attach the 'grass' that I'd cut earlier and add a couple of tiny orange flowers
