Peonies + Proteas

Well it has been a moment, it sure feels like since I have been able to pop in here!

Apologies, It has been a bit of a busy few months behind the scenes!


So when this gorgeous collection was released, I just wasn't able to pop in and share with you! but now I've had some time to create I'm here to share a project as well!

Introducing The Beautiful March Collection - Peonies and Proteas from Uniquely Creative

peonies and proteas collection of products including cut-a-parts, die sets, paper collection, creative cuts, pearl posies and wooden embellishments

PEONIES + PROTEAS COLLECTION

In my opinion, This Collection is Beautiful!


A Delicate and Pretty collection with plenty of Aussie charm, Including Australiana, Beautiful Peonies and Flora. With the Soft Pink hues and subtle Greens in this collection, the papers and coordinating embellishments elegantly weave together the charm of delicate flowers with the robust beauty of Australian nature.


Beautifully hand-drawn images of your favourite Native Animals, Eucalyptus leaves and Floral Clusters are ideal for fussy cutting so you can create a stunning layered scrapbooking layout or card.

I myself sadly have not been creating as much in the last 6+ months,

as Things at home has kept me on my toes!


BUT this collection got me! And this past week I was lucky enough to be able to grab a few moments to myself, So whipped out a few of the Collection and got creating!


Found this collection is super easy to create some cards, fast!







THE PAPERS

Just adore the Designs in the Collection, as you can see below there are many ways you can use these papers for Card Making, Scrapbooking, Journaling or Anything You can imagine up!


12" x 12" or 6" x 6" - both are so useful in so many ways!

I do tend to use both, cut down to size per project or leave it as one for quick layouts! (I cut up the 12"x12" Background Sheets into 6" squares for card making)



I always find it easy to create with a few pages of the 12" x 12" (usually the fussy cut paper), Mini Paper Pack, Cut-A-Part Sheet and the Creative Cuts - Plus this time we also had the Vellum Cuts as well!



Recommended Cardstock Colours to co-ordinate with the peonies and proteas Collection. Fluffy Bunny, Rosa, Lime, Avocado and Meadow Textured cardstock.


CREATING WITH THE COLLECTION

I created these cards as I just wanted some simple but wow cards, on hand. Cards that I could just grab and go,

Good thing they were super easy to put together!


Peonies and Protea simple cards, laid out on a table with white muslin attached to front of a white card with printed vellum flower bouquets attached to muslin, with black and white printed sentiment cut to a rectangle shape and mounted on box card to raise the sentiment up for more focal, sentiment says Thank You and Best Wishes.

Materials:

Box Cardboard cut to size (alternative to Foam Tape)



Cards laid out on table with white muslin texture and vellum flower image cuts and black and white printed sentiment on card in a rectangle shape mounted on thick box cardboard to raise it up to be more focal, on a white card.


Create these Easy Cards:

  • Simply layer by adding minimal glue large circles to middle of front of card

  • Scrunch the Muslin up and place on glue.

  • Without taking the adhesive backing off the vellum cuts, add some glue and place on top of Muslin.

  • Trim the circle sentiments down with trimmer or scissors, add trimmed box card to back of Sentiment piece with liquid glue.

  • Adhere the sentiment to the lower right with glue.

  • Leave to dry.


I also got some more creative fun with this collection, bit different style cards so I'll leave that for another day!


I Hope this gives you some inspiration, Especially on how to use the Vellum Creative Cuts and also how to pump out some simple cards for your stash!


Have a great day!
