Spellbinders Garden Club Collection

Hi friends. I am happy to be sharing two cards with you today featuring products from the Garden Club collection of dies from Spellbinders. I am working the gorgeous Cactus Dahlia and Ornamental Garden Pottery and Geranium and Antique Wooden Bucket die sets for my cards today.

For my first card, I started by creating the dahlias in a bright pink color. I followed the tutorial on the Spellbinders YouTube channel to create the flowers and leaves. I die cut the the pot from some light aqua card stock and then added some shading using some darker ink. 

I die cut the largest die from the Fluted Classic Squares die collection into the white card stock for some added texture. I added this to a square aqua card base. I then added my pot with a couple foam squares in the center to give a bit of roundness and then added my leaves and dahlias.

For my second card, I am using the Geranium and Antique Wooden Bucket die set. I first stamped a woodgrain background onto my red card background. I then die cut a white oval from the Fluted Classic Ovals die set.

I die cut the bucket from some metallic card stock and added it to the white die cut oval. I then got to work on the greenery. Again, I watched the tutorial for this collection on the Spellbinders YouTube channel. I attached all the greenery portions and then got to work on the geranium flowers themselves. I die cut several of them from white card stock and then used a couple shades of red ink to ink them up. I shaped each of the flowers and then added them to the bucket.

I decided not to add a sentiment to either card as I couldn't decide on a good spot and decided that there was enough going on with these cards.

I hope you've been inspired today. Wishing you all a very happy week. Crafty hugs! ~ Alanna
