Ruffled Carnations - Elizabeth Craft Designs

High and Welcome!

Carnations are one of my favorite flowers and I had so much fun ruffling the Bohemian Rose by Angelica Turner to make it look like a ruffled carnation. I love how this card turned out.

Create a 6 x 6" white card base. Cut a 5 7/8 X 5 7/8" gold layer and a 5 3/4 x 5 3/4" Bohemian Rose layer. Ink the edges of the designer cardstock, adhere the two layers together and adhere to the card front using dimensional tape.

Using the Autumn Fancy Corners die set, cut 2 x from white and gold cardstock. Adhere the white diecuts to the gold diecuts slightly offset to create a gold shadow. Adhere to the card front as shown.

Cut gold cardstock 5 7/8 x 5 7/8" and Bohemian Rose cardstock 5 3/4 x 5 3/4", ink the edges of the designer paper, adhere together and adhere to the inside of the card.

Diecut, color and shape the Rose flower and the leaves. Wet the flowers, crinkle and layer together. I used two each of three graduated sizes to create each ruffled carnation. Adhere the flowers and leaves to the card front using hot glue.
