Floral Reflections Card

A lovely floral card suitable for almost any occasion. Simply add a peel off sticker to make this card into a birthday card or Mother’s day card or any other occasion!

What you will need to make this card:

  1. 5″ x 5″ (125 x 125) Square white card blank
  2. Pearlised red / dark pink paper
  3. Decorative border craft punch or crafty edger punch
  4. Reflections Die-Cut Decoupage – Floral #752
  5. Mixed Butterflies Peel Off Sheet – Diamond Silver
  6. Wording Peel Off Sheet (optional)
  7. Double sided sticky tape
  8. Sticky Foam Pads
  9. Ruler, Craft Knife, Craft Cutting Mat



How to make:

Punch a strip of decorative border using the red / dark pink pearl paper and the border craft punch. Cut the decorative border strip that you created to size to fit onto the right hand side of the card blank. Use double sided sticky tape to stick the border to the card blank.

Take the top floral image from the decoupage sheet and build it up using sticky foam pads on the left hand side of the card blank.

To make the 3D butterfly shape, you need 3 butterfly stickers from the diamond silver butterfly peel off sheet. Folding two of the stickers in half you stick one half of each of them back to back to the third butterfly. You then stick the two sticky halves that are folded back to the card blank at the top left of the decoupage image to look like the butterfly is flying towards the flowers. Then fold the butterfly wings up and the butterfly pops up in a 3D type style.

You can either leave your card as it is or you can finish your card off by choosing a wording peel off sticker that is suitable for your occasion and sticking it at the bottom of the card.
