Marilou, one of the members on the Silhouette Plus forum shared a great find. Prima is on Facebook and they are sharing an entire free set of note cards. As soon as I saw them, I thought about making a card using their lovely note cards.
It was great to be able to convert the note cards to a Silhouette Studio cutting file. After I converted them I went to work making three tiny roses. The roses are made from coffee filters, and sprayed with floral spray paint. I usually make large roses from coffee filters but, I was in the mood for trying something different. I love Prima flowers but didn't have any leaves or roses on hand so it was time to get creative. When I make these tiny roses again, I think I will use water colors to color them. When coffee filter roses are water colored you have to wait for them to dry before adding a bit of shape to them. The background of the card is stamped with Stampin' Up " Love what we do" script stamp and the ink is VersaMagic chalk ink Jumbo Java.
Here's how this card turned out. I'm looking forward to giving it to my Aunt who is one of the most giving, thoughtful, and caring person I know. Woohoo! she will be here this week for a visit. I'm excited!

Beautiful card! Your Aunt will love it. TFS!
ReplyDeleteI'm still trying to beg coffee filters since I don't use them. Think I'll see what I can do with cupcake liners since I have a bunch.
This looks great, Debbie. I am not on Facebook myself so can't grab'em myself but the notelets look a fab base. Your roses are gorgeous and a perfect embellishment.

Your card turned out so lovely Debbie!! I'm so happy that Prima offered this freebie, as they are really beautiful note cards. I've never tried to make flowers with coffee filters, but will look into that. I even have filters. LOL I think I will used Ranger Inks to color them, or my Copics. Thanks for the idea!!
