Spellbinders Poppies Tutorial

Hello friends, thank you for stopping by today!  I am have a tutorial for Spellbinders to share with you today - featuring one of the new Poppy dies.  There's 6 dies in the set, the main stem, extra poppies and leaves. 

 The additional leaves are a nice touch. I chose to die cut the main die and colour the poppies and leaves with Chameleon Pens  - but you can overlay the poppy heads using red/or the colour of your choice and the leaves green - don't you love it that we have options!

1. Cut/emboss the Poppies using white card stock and the Platinum 6.

2. Colour the Poppy Flowers using Chameleon Pens while still in the Die.

3. Colour the leaves and add details to the poppies using Chameleon Pens.

4. Cut/emboss one Hemstitch Rectangles using DCWV Patterned paper

5. Add a strip of green seam binding around the lower portion of the card front.

8. Pop up onto a pre-cut white card base using 3D Foam Squares.

9. Cut/emboss Hemstitch Ovals #3 #4 (#1 being the smallest) using white card stock.

10. Stamp with the background stamp and Espresso Truffle while still in the Dies.

11. Sponge around the edges using Espresso Truffle before removing from the Dies.

12. Cut/emboss two long Trinkets from the Isadora Trinkets using gold card stock.

13. Adhere to the top and bottom of the card front.

14. Pop the Hemstitch Ovals onto the centre of the layered card front using 3D Foam Squares.

15. Pop the Poppies up onto the Hemstitch Oval using 3D Foam Squares.

16. Glue a double seam binding bow on the left of the framed Poppies.

17. Remove the shank from the back of the button and glue to the centre of the bow.
