Have a Magical Day Card

   Happy Friday!

For today's project I'm back with a fun and bright Have a Magical Day Card. To create my card, I've used a variety of dies from the Paper Flower Collection as well as dies and stamps from Joset Designs. You'll want to read below as I have a full tutorial on how to recreate my card at home.

To start, choose two pieces of bright spring patterned paper. Die cut a 3 1/2" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of one of the patterned papers. Die cut a 3" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of the other piece of patterned paper. Ink the edges of both rectangles using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Die cut a 3 1/4" Fitted Indented Rectangle out of a piece of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Ink the edges of the rectangle using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Die cut a 3/4" Diagonal Stitched Fishtail out of a piece of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Cut the fishtail down to 3". From the Build Your Own Sentiments Stamp Set, you'll need the Have a Magical Day stamp. Apply Detail Black Ink to the sentiment and stamp on the fishtail side of the fishtail. Ink the edges of the fishtail using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

The next four steps use the Florals 7 die.

Die cut two of the large, one of the medium and two of the small leaves out of a piece of green paper.

Die cut the centres once out of a piece of White Soft Finish Cardstock. You'll need three of the centres.

Die cut the medium flower twice, the small flower twice and the extra small flower twice out of a piece of blue paper.

Die cut the large, medium, small and extra small flowers out of a piece of pink patterned paper.

Adhere the 3" rectangle to the 3 1/4" rectangle. Adhere the 3 1/4" rectangle to the 3 1/2" rectangle.

Adhere the fishtail 1 1/2" from the bottom and 1" from the left of the 3" rectangle. Shape the leaves as desired. Adhere a small and large leaf at the top left corner of the 3" rectangle. Adhere the medium leaf on the left middle side of the 3" rectangle. Adhere the remaining leaves in the bottom middle of the 3" rectangle.

Shape and adhere the flowers. Make sure that you add a centre to each flower. Adhere the pink patterned paper to the middle left side of the 3" rectangle, making sure it sits on the fishtail. Adhere the remaining two blue flowers as desired around the pink flower making sure they cover up the bottom portions of the leaves.

To finish the card, cut a cardbase out of White Soft Finish Cardstock that measures 4 3/4" x 7", score at 3 1/2". Adhere the cardfront to the cardbase.

Here are a few closeup photos of the finished card.

Here is the finished Have a Magical Day Card.

You'll also want to make sure to stop by the Elizabeth Craft Designs Blog to check out the rest of the projects.

Once the rectangle has dried,  ink the edges of the rectangle using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Die cut a 1" Fitted Fishtail out of a piece of White Soft Finish Cardstock. From the Friendship stamp, you'll need the There are no strangers quote. Apply Detail Black Ink to the stamp and stamp on the fishtail side of the fishtail. Trim the fishtail down to 3". Distress the edges of the fishtail. Ink the edges of the fishtail using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

From the same Friendship stamp set, you'll need the large hydrangea branch and one of the single hydrangea branch. Apply Detail Black Ink to each stamp and stamp onto a piece of watercolour cardstock. Colour the flowers using a waterbrush and Watercolor Palette. Once the flowers have dried, fussy cut them out. Ink the edges of the flowers using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Foam square the 3 3/4" rectangle to the 4" rectangle. Adhere the 3 1/2" rectangle to the 3 3/4" rectangle.

Foam square the hydrangea bunch to the left hand side of the 3 1/2" rectangle. Adhere the single hydrangea in amongst the hydrangea bunch as desired.

Adhere the fishtail to the right of the hydrangeas as desired.

To finish the card, cut a cardbase out of White Soft Finish Cardstock that measures 5 1/4" x 8", score at 8". Adhere the cardfront to the cardbase.
