Ornate gardens quilting technique

Well hello again everyone, another week is upon us all already, I don't know where the time has gone, but since we've all been in this lockdown, the time seems to just fly away with me, I don't seem to get as much done, I don't know why this is, maybe it's just me!

Anyway today I thought I'd share with you all a really lovely project that I've done after seeing what a lovely american demo called Julie Davison had made, she is available to watch on Youtube, so go and give her a look , as she has some amazing projects to share with us all.  So after being so inspired by her lovely project that I found I thought I'd case it changing the measurements and adding a few of my own little twists.

The technique is called quilting (with paper in this case).

Other items used:

Ornate floral 3D embossing folder

Medium daisy punch

Perennial essence floral centers

Multipurpose liquid glue

Stampin' Dimensionals

Mini glue dots ( for ribbon )

To create your card base fold on the score line, glue your inner piece of embossed card inside your card and glue in to place your 2 x ovals.

Having glued your 2 x square pieces of dsp in to place on your small old olive piece, leave to dry then emboss.

Now with your terracotta square piece place the 4 x triangle pieces (which have been cut from 2pc of dsp) as shown in the pictures.

Now place the embossed square piece in to the centre of the terracotta piece, giving you the lovely quilted square.

Glue this square on to your whisper white square, and then using dimensionals with glue on them adhere to the gold glimmer paper.

Across this square place your very thin strip of whisper white card, then having cut your doily as the picture  shows glue these either side of the strip.

Now you can glue this square to the front of your card.

Emboss your 3 x daisies and then glue together, place your choice of embellishment in to the centre of flower and place on to the front of your card.

Stamp your sentiment on to the whisper white piece, glue flat to the old olive embossed piece and now glue to the front of your card.

Tie your bow using both pieces of ribbon together, giving you a double colour bow, glue to the front of your card using a glue dot.

I hope you've enjoyed this card, and you'll go and give it a go, and enjoy making it as much as I've enjoyed making it.

Take care everyone and stay safe.
