Two Things We Can Give

Hi there blog friends!!  I’ve received quite a few emails asking for a tutorial on the flower I did on Monday, so here you go!!   Believe me, it’s very easy and with wide ribbon, it’s a stunning flower!!


Since my posts from the last couple of days have been soooooo long, I’ll keep this brief.  The card that my flower is on uses a sentiment from Quietfire Design called There Are Two Things We Can Give.  Isn’t it sweet?   I’m using new paper from a set called Flea Market and I cut my sentiment from Spellbinders Labels Fourteen.  Once done, I constructed my flower and backed it by a bow to make the focal point on the card.  The tutorial is quick, I hope you’ll give it a try!!

SUPPLIES I USED
Stamps: Quietfire DesignThere Are Two Things We Can Give
Paper: Colorbox – Flea Market
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories: Ribbon, Zva Creative Pearls, Spellbinders Labels Fourteen, Tim Holtz Wings Die, I-Top Brad

Be well friends!!!  See ya tomorrow!!

    Great tutorial Becca. The ribbon flowers are so pretty. Your card is very shabby chic looking to me today. I think it’s nice that the flower with the wings are the main focal. Beautiful work Becca, As always Becca, TFS!!!

    so pretty and just love your wings, thanks for sharing the how to’s!ReplyCancel

  • […] The inspiration for my card was cupcake wrappers.  I have a set of white ones that look like filigree, so I pulled them out and used two of them on this card – one at the top and one at the bottom.  This is another tall and narrow card and the tulips stamps fits perfectly on the vertical, cut from Spellbinders Grand Labels Four.  Since I stamped on dark paper, I added just a hint of color with chalks.  I distressed my cupcake wrappers with Vintage Photo Distress Ink then added some Prima Bling, a Scor-Tape Flower and these petals.

    Becca, You are amazing!! I have never seen so much talent all rolled up in one person. I just love getting your Feedblitz posts in my emails. Just can’t wait to see what new wonder and Becca Bits you have come up with. What a joy you are to those of us not so gifted.

    Hugs & Blessings!ReplyCancel

  • Ann GreenspanApril 19, 2011 - 9:27 am

    I made this bow after following your tutorial and it came out really big for a 6 1/2 x 5 inch card. What size card do you normally use? I am finding that a lot of times I redo the cards you do but only to find that the borders and embellishments don’t fit on my standard sized cards. A card any bigger than that seems huge, like a scrapbook page. I can understand you needing to make things bigger for your videos, but if you are using a bigger card base, can you please let us know that ahead of time and also let me know back via email. Thank you.ReplyCancel
