Flower Garden Sizzlet Cards

Spring is the season for flowers and the Sizzlet Flower Garden die cutter will give you lots of flower power. Both of these cards feature the lacy, intricate flower design cut from card stock. The Easter card eggs were made by running a segment of the die cut flower strip through a Xyron machine and sprinkling the sticky side with matching glitter. Next a contrasting piece of colored card stock was passed through the Xyron machine. Then the non-glittered side of the flower strip was adhered to the sticky side of the solid colored card stock piece. Glitter matching the card stock was sprinkled on the joined card stocks. The twice glittered card stock was then cut into an egg shape. If I have the time (between the zillion other projects I have going on) I will write up the egg card (before Easter) and post it on the craft club website (www.bfcraftclub.com). Oh yes, the edge of the green strip on the Easter card was punched with the Martha Stewart lattice edge punch and the word 'Easter' was stamped using a Studio G dollar stamp. The large flower is from Prima and the flower brad is from Making Memories. The word 'Bloom' is a rub-on but any stamped message can be substituted. Well, I hope that you will spring into SPRING with the power of flowers.
