Hello Spring! A Handmade Card Duo featuring On This Day with Ayumi

Hello BoBunny friends!! It's Ayumi here. 

Today I'll share with you two elegant cards in the On this Day collection.

Hello Spring by Ayumi Iwashita.

 

This sets of cards was very simple to to make.  I started with a color wash on the background of the base paper to soften and blend in with the background of the paper.  I did this with two colors of slightly thinned watercolor paints, not mixed together but with both on the tip of the paintbrush. 

Then I fussy cut out the pattern from the pattern paper with scissors. 

Then I adhered the shamrock pattern on to the yellow card stock card base, and stamped it around the border to mimic a stitched pattern without actually stitching it. An easy shortcut!!!

Once I put the fussy cut pieces and the rest of the full card together, it was easy and fun to add jewels to the center of the flowers and a few more strategically placed on the title and on the card face.

Thanks for popping by today for this fun card project.  I hope you found some crafty ideas today!

Enjoy your happy day. 

Thank you.
