Card - Hyacinth Flowers

This was the main card to be done for the May 2009 MCPT Card Challenge. I only followed through with three of the five - just couldn't come up with anything "different" enough for the other two. Inside this card, I have a larger version of the "fallen flower" adhered in about the same spot just as an accent.
Supply list:
  • Paper - Colorbok (card); Keepsake Essentials (yellow cardstock); Bazzill white cardstock
  • Border - EK Success Plan-A-Page Template
  • Cuttlebug Embossing Folder - Swirls (just the green and the yellow)
  • Pencils: KOH-I-NOOR Woodless Color Pencils
    Klean-Strip Odorless Mineral Spirits

Card - Grandmother - Flowers Have Sun

I remember seeing this saying somewhere a few months back and thought it was a nice sentiment. I can't recall if it was actually for a Grandmother or not, but that's how I opted to use it. It was also helpful that I had photos of flowers from the flower beds over the past year and the new Cricut with an also new Alphalicious cartridge. I took some Astrobrights paper and just let it cut various flowers from fully covered mat boards for an afternoon and just divided them by size into clear containers until time to create the card last night. It allowed the process to go a lot faster.

Supplies list:
  • Cricut - George cart - flowers (1", 1.25", 1.5")
  • Cricut - Alphalicious cart - lettering (1")
  • Paper trimmer for square background papers (1.5")
  • Marvy Clever Level Craft Punch LV-SJCP42 Square for photos (2" diagonal cut)
  • Card base - 8.5x11 - Royal Crafts Sonburn II Cover Stock Earthtones collection
  • Adhesives: Xyron (photos, colored squares, lettering); Glue Stick (center of cut flowers)
  • Brads (only used on two front cut flowers)
  • Making Memories Mini Square Tropic Item #26112 key lime
  • Making Memories Flower Pastel Item #30182 larger green of two sizes
