Thanks Card with CutCardstock

 Hello Crafty Friends -  I am so honored to be designing for CutCardstock I hope you enjoy this thanks card featuring a variety of cardstock.

Supplies Used:
Sizzix Layered Summer Flowers Die Set
Dare 2B Artzy: Thanks Word Die
Darice Embossing Folder
VersaMagic Ink: Spring Pansy, Pixi Dust, & Thatched Straw
Bearly Art Glue
Foam Tabs
Crystal Gems

I started by pulling all the cardstock I wanted to use.

Next, Die cut all the flowers and leaves layers. The leaves I did in Pearl Textured Green Curry Cardstock and Scottish Highlands Textured Cardstock. The flowers I did the largest flower in Hydrangea Purple Textured Cardstock and Plum Purple Textured Cardstock, the medium flower in Pink Lemonade Cardstock and Razzleberry Cardstock. The small flowers in Light Yellow Cardstock and Yellow Jacket Textured Cardstock. I die cut all the flower centers in Orange Fizz Cardstock


Then, I trimmed down the Beetle Black Textured Cardstock and Classic Crest Solar White Cardstock to 4-1/4" x5-1/2". I ran the Classic Crest Solar White Cardstock through my embossing folder for some texture. I then trimmed it down a 1/4" to create a nice boarder for my layer.


I added a bit of ink on the edges of the flower petals for some interest.

I then, adhered the flower layers using some Bearly Art glue.



Next, I adhered the leaves layers using some Bearly Art glue


I die cut the sentiment three times. Once fromBeetle Black Textured Cardstock and twice from  Classic Crest Solar White Cardstock and adhered them all together to create a nice sturdy piece.


Now it's time to assemble the card. I adhered the embossed layer onto the black layer. Then onto my card base. 

I arrange the flowers and leaves how I want them, I pop-up all the flowers and adhere the leave directly onto the crd front panel.

I adhere the sentiment and some gems to finish my card.

Here are a few close ups of the flowers and leaves.



Thank you for stopping by the blog today I hope you found some inspiration!
