Blooming Lovely Gift Card by Tracey Fairgrieve


Hello everyone. How did we get to the last day of November so soon??

I've been so busy playing with some new That's Crafty! products (coming soon)
that I feel that this month has come and gone in the blink of an eye.

Here's a Gift Card I made using That's Crafty! products and a peek 
at a new one coming soon (but I'm not telling you which !!...)

Mixing a small amount of That's Crafty! Multi Surface Paint with water 
I added them to spray bottles and spritzed them onto water colour card.






I stamped both the flower and leaf from Lynne's Affirmations Set 6 
onto the background papers cutting them out leaving an edge. 






I repeat stamped the sentiment onto the background cut to 4x4" in size and matt and layered onto card. A piece of the background was glued onto a tag with the same sentiment masked off to fit then stamped.






Edging the Flowers and leaves with Versamark and a dusting of gold embossing powder they were then heat set. Large Flat back gems embellish the centre of each flower.






The flowers and leaves are layered onto the tag with 3D glue 
and a magnetic strip attached to the back. 

Attached to the card using ribbon the tag can easily be untied
and displayed on a fridge or any magnetic surface.




My Blooming Lovely Gift card is complete.

Thank you for sharing a little bit of your day with me,
I look forward to sharing more with you same time next week.

*See you all in December*

Creative Hugs
Tracey xx
