Blue floral card with gold dies and butterflies

Floral Anthology + Paper Butterfly Embellishments- Made Easy

Hi crafters,

Today, we're teaching you how to look at your paper patterns in a new way! Our Floral Paper Anthology has 102 sheets of 12" x 12" Cardstock (6 each of 17 designs). Take a look at each individual pattern; you may find diecuts just waiting to be released, or layers that will add movement to your card. If you don't have this amazing paper pack, you can get it on our website on sale! We're also using the Paper Butterfly Embellishments to elevate our project today.

Come craft a lovely birthday card with us!

Start with your card base and a frame of your choice for design elements. We used the Birthday Greetings 3D Concentric Dies.

From the blue floral design, cut a 3.75" by 5.75" layer.

Add your fussy cut layer and another gold layer of your choice with foam adhesive.

Fussy cut 2 of the flowers out of the same paper using a craft knife (or scissors).

You can also split gold foil embellishments to spread them on your paper projects.

Add the fussy cut flowers with foam adhesive.

Add each half of the halved fussy cut gold foil flourish to the card, under the flowers.

A Birthday Greetings sentiment from the Birthday Wishes Card Making Kit makes for the perfect birthday card.

For extra movement and a bit of whimsy, 2 of our paper butterflies get added at an angle as shown.

The Floral Anthology Papers and Paper Butterfly Embellishments make a wonderful duo. Each design is more beautiful than the next so you can mix patterns effortlessly.

You will love reaching for these 2 for card sending occasions of all kinds. Send Best Wishes to a friend or family member.

What's great about our perfect palette is that everything goes together flawlessly. Just grab your favorites and make something beautiful!

If you love having beautiful patterns at the ready, then the Floral Paper Anthology is something that you will appreciate having in your craft room. The 12" x 12" papers are just the thing for both card making and scrapbooking. 

Is papercrafting your thing? Whether you are just starting on your crafting journey, or are a master crafter, we have an event for you! Our Crop at Home 5 weekend is coming up May 2nd- 4th. The 9 classes in this live-streamed event is attended from the comfort of your home. The tools and materials you will receive will create the projects during class and beyond! We would love to have you at the event to join in the amazing, welcoming community that we have created.

Next week we will be back with another beautiful tutorial just for you!

Bye for now,

Anna
