flights of fancy cards.

Delicate blooms, beautiful soft swirls of water coloured images, butterflies galore is all you need to make a few beautiful cards. The new Prima Fairy Rhymes range of papers are perfect for just that – the beautiful soft designs offers a peaceful palette of dreamy colours and delicate imagery, and teamed with the stunning flowers from Petaloo it truly is a winning combination. 

 The grouping is perfect for Romantic souls, vintage personalities and feminine creatures young and old – everyone who is anyone will appeal to this stunning combination. So what better way than to combine the delicate designs of Prima and Petaloo to make stunning everyday cards? I even included some packaging from the Prima mini swirls as part of the card design. It fits perfectly and neatly tucked away in the background. To off-set the soft colours and delicate design I included some silver thread that loosely floats underneath my embossed butterflies, peeking out from under the flowers as added texture.

 To make the embossed butterflies float I only adhered them in the body part only using some 3D Zots. I also added some sparkle to the centres of my flowers using Crystalina glitter glue – this is a great way of adding a little bling to an already perfect bloom. The easiest thing is to use a beautiful piece of paper and some pretty blooms and you can make cards in minutes. So why not give it a try – we would love to see your creations using this product combination.

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. i just returned from a rather chilly Bloemfontein filled with wonderful classes and good friends! and oh my not to mention unpacking loads of new stock! I look forward to blogging about the new shop and all the extra Project Life details i am going to scrap!
