Beautiful Floral Card: Lisa Horton Crafts Decorative Lattice with Garden Planter Set
In today’s video project, I created a beautiful floral card using the new Spellbinders and Lisa Horton Crafts Decorative Lattice and Garden Planter Die Sets. Spellbinders sent me these sets to have a play with, and I am grateful for the opportunity! All products I used in this project are listed below.
Measurements:
A2 Card Base: 4 1/4 x 5 1/2"
8 1/2 x 5 1/2", Score at 4 1/4"
Background Panel: 3 3/4 x 5"
Inside Panel: 3 3/4 x 5"
Die Cutting All the Card Pieces
The Spellbinders/Lisa Horton Crafts Decorative Lattice Die Set comes with the lattice part and a frame. This allows you to create a standalone lattice piece by using the dies together, or you can use the lattice die to cut a window into a panel. You can also cut out the frame to add a backer to the lattice piece.
I first added a piece of Altenew Double-sided Adhesive Sheet to a panel of Spellbinders Truffle cardstock, and then cut out the lattice using both pieces in the die set. This turned the die cut into a sticker, and it helps make the card assembly easier later on.
To create the planter, I used the wood-looking paper from the Scrapbook.com Faux Finish Patterned Paper Collection, and the bands on the planter were cut from Spellbinders Truffle Cardstock.
I die-cut the foliage pieces from Rainforest and Fern cardstocks, and the branches from Truffle cardstock. I wasn’t sure what color palette I wanted to go with for the flowers, so I die cut out a bunch of different ones. The colors included: Breeze, Windy, Cascade, Celestial, Fairy Tale, Mulberry, and Violet cardstocks. For the flower centers, I used Beeswax cardstock.
I assembled the flowers using liquid glue, layering the different-colored layers together. After that was complete, I decided to use a purple-pink palette for the flowers.
Putting Together the Card Front
I trimmed out a panel from the Faux Finish Patterned Paper Pad, and used a corner rounder on the panel. Then I peeled off the release paper from the lattice piece and stuck it to the background panel.
Using Altenew Foam Tape on the back of the planter, I added it to the bottom middle of the lattice piece. Then using a combination of glue and Scrapbook Adhesives Thin Foam Squares, I arranged the foliage and floral pieces into a nice garden planter display.
I added the panel to a Violet card base, which I had rounded the corners of as well. Then I added Spellbinders Orchid Gems to the card front for a little extra sparkle and shine.
Inside of Card
To decorate the inside of the card, I cut a panel of Fog cardstock, and then rounded the edges to match the card base. I added a couple of the leftover flowers to the top and bottom of the panel with liquid glue.
Next, I adhered the panel to the inside of the card using temporary adhesive. I find this is easier for me, so I can remove and replace the panel if I mess up when writing my message without having to tear my card apart.
