I've seen several of these Rocker Cards made as "Easter Bonnets"! How cool is that! This one uses the yummy Lemon Lolly color with a splash of lavender flowers! What can you come up with?
Measurements:
- Lemon Lolly: 5 3/4" square (outside base), 5 1/4" square (embossed outside layer), 2 3/4" square (addition), 2 1/2" square (embossed addition layer), scraps
- Basic White: 5 1/4" square (inside - need only 1/2)
- Fresh Freesia: scraps
- Highland Heather: scraps
- Soft Sea Foam: scraps
To Make This Card:
- Run largest Lemon Lolly square with 2nd from largest Deckled Circle Die. Fold in half. Crease well. Set aside.
- Run the next square (that will be cut in half and embossed) 3rd from largest Deckled Circle Die. Cut in half. Save the other half for another card, or share with a friend! Emboss with desired embossing folder and attach to front of card. (tone on tone)
- Now for the added piece. Die cut the 3rd largest square from the 5th from the smallest die. Set aside.
- Die cut the last square of Lemon Lolly from the 4th from the smallest die. Run through the same embossing folder and attach to smaller circle.
- I attached this to the "card base", now. You will center it over the folded, larger circle, and no higher than the width of an envelope! Or, 4 1/4" tall. You might want to attach this to your card base with Tear n Tape.
- Next, I die cut several of the smallest flowers from the Paper Florist Dies. I layered most of these, and played around with an appealing arrangement.
- I attached the ribbon strip, first. Then, the "branch" also from the Paper Florist Dies, and then arranged the flowers.
- After I selected the flower centers, I embellished them with a little Wink of Stella.
- I finished with a bow from the same ribbon.
